Why would you tax somebody else, another family, less than you tax my family when we both make the same amount? I mean, it doesn't make any sense. It really doesn't. You have another family that makes the same as we do, the only difference in what we're doing is in the child care. Therefore, by doing this, you're telling me that financially I can't do what I do because you're not going to help me. So when the government says something to you financially, it generally tells you that they don't want you doing it or it looks down on you for it. And I know you don't, none of you--not the Liberals, not the NDP, not the Conservatives, not the Bloc--has turned around and is going to say that stay-at-home parents are bad, but financially, the way we're looking at it in the tax system, it's hard on us.
