Everybody sees the balance sheets but very few politicians and almost every citizen has any idea how to evaluate them. That's what a bureaucracy of experts is for, to evaluate, analyze and provide expert advice on policy. When you're in opposition you don't have that base of expertise so you likely would not have understood the depth of Canadian finances.

Hell the Conservatives had the benefit of that expertise and STILL didn't understand it.

To somehow hold the Liberals' feet to the fire is because they chose to scrap the GST cuts in favour of returning the country to economic prosperity is, in my opinion, a laughable, cynical, partisan and (most of all) simple minded argument.
