Mr. Speaker, I wonder if you would do me a favour and call The Guinness Book of Records . I think we have a new winner, a new record for tax collection.
On January 1 the finance minister is going to set a new record for high payroll taxes in Canada. On January 1 the finance minister will set a new record for high personal income taxes in Canada. On January 1 the finance minister will set a new record for taxes collected through bracket creep.
I want to ask our record holder: How does it feel to set a new record for being the greediest tax collector in Canadian history?
