Thanks to each of you.
The first question is to the CFIB. In terms of payroll taxes, last January there was an increase in the payroll tax of $600 million. The government is scheduled, in January 2012, to increase payroll taxes by $1.2 billion, a 5.6% increase.
Given that unemployment rates are now almost 2% higher than they were three years ago and that we've lost 500,000 full-time jobs in Canada over the last three years, wouldn't it make more sense to freeze payroll taxes exactly where they are now and not increase them further?
