Mr. Fraser: I believe we have an agreement to have an extended question period of 45 minutes.
Mr. P. Robichaud: Agreed, Mr. Speaker.
Government Finances
Mr. Gallant: Cuts to services, cuts to our social programs, and tax hikes are what we have seen from the Alward government over the past four years. Unfortunately, despite the fact that we have seen so many significant cuts and despite the fact that we have seen a significant tax hike, this government has been unable to balance the books. On top of that, thousands of New Brunswickers either find themselves leaving our province for work or find themselves unemployed in our province.

Reddition de comptes
M. Gallant : Il est évident que le gouvernement Alward a brisé les trois promesses clés qu’il a faites durant la campagne électorale de 2010. Il avait promis d’équilibrer le budget au cours de son mandat ; c’est une promesse qui a été brisée. Il avait aussi clairement promis d’équilibrer le budget sans augmenter les taxes et les impôts et sans réduire les services ; ce sont deux autres promesses qui, comme nous le savons bien, ont aussi été brisées.

Transfer Payments
Mr. Melanson: Yesterday, we had the Prime Minister of Canada do a touch-and-go in our province.
(Interjections.)
Mr. Speaker: Order.
Mr. Melanson: Certainly, the Prime Minister stayed long enough for the Premier to have a serious conversation with him. We know that the Prime Minister said—when Ottawa is in a surplus situation—he will not allow more transfer payments for health care to the provinces. The question is for the Premier. This is very serious because we will be losing more than $715 million over 10 years. Can the Premier tell us today whether he had a real conversation about this serious matter with his cozy friend Stephen Harper yesterday?
