I thank the honourable member for the question. For reasons that the Treasurer will expand upon in a moment, our objection to the plan—if you can call it that—of the Leader of the Opposition is not simply that it is a reversal of every position he has taken on these issues in the past, not simply because it is dripping with hypocrisy but that, far from raising more money, it involves raising money that he has spent multiple times. You can only spend it once, as the Treasurer will explain.
