Since 1993, the Liberal government under Jean Chrétien has restored integrity to office. We have met and bettered our deficit targets every year. By getting the economic funâ€" damentals right, we set the stage for an increase of 791,000 jobs and a 2% decline in unemployment, even with a growing workforce. The prime interest rate is at a 40â€"year low of 4.75% while the U.S. prime rate is £.5%. Our success in fighting the deficit has put Canada near the top of the list of the world‘s most competitive economies. A competitiveness rating helps attract investment for ecoâ€" nomic growth and jobs and a higher standard of living. The International Monetary Fund says Canada will have the best growth rate over the next two years with_ 300,000 â€" 350,000 new jobs a year. We have already reâ€"invested dividends from our prudent fiscal management into postâ€" secondary education, research and development, student assistance, and in children. in less than two years we will have a zero deficit for the first time in 30 years, with no furâ€" ther cuts to government programs. ; Canada is on the right economic path and this is no time to change direction. I ask for your vote so we can secure our future together and move with confidence into the 21st century. . Sincerely, Andrew Telegdi â€" The nine years of Mulroney Conservative rule from 1984 to 1993 took Canada to the brink of economic ruin. The public debt increased from $208 billion to $508 billion. The record deficit in 1993â€"94 was $42 billion, $12 billion higher than forecast by the Mulroney Conservative government. The standard of living of Canadians declined by 6.6% from 1989 to 1993. The unemâ€" ployment rate in 1993 was 11.4% and during the last 41 months of Mulroney rule, Canada lost 146,000 jobs.
