Budget Speech: Canadas Economic Action

Canadas Economic Action: Thats what Minister of Finance John Rose was talking about when he stood before this assembly to deliver Canadas first budget speech in 1868. He said, I say that we ought to be most careful in our outlay, and consider well every shilling we expend, according to The Chronicle Herald. Mr. Speaker, I am proud to rise today to present Canadas Economic Action Plan 2014 and Mr. Speaker, nearly 150 years ago, Canada was founded with fiscal responsibility as its cornerstone. The men and women who carved this great country out of the wilderness simply called it good government. Now, thats just old-fashioned English for old-fashioned common sense. And it is that solid, Canadian common sense that has guided our Government through good times and bad. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
