Mr. Chair, the Liberal broken promise will cost small business $2.2 billion over the next four years and will kill more than 1,200 jobs. We know the government and the Liberals made a clear promise in writing dozens of times on the campaign trail, and small businesses were counting on them to follow through. It's disturbing that they're breaking this promise to Canada's job creators and even more disturbing that they're making this change in an omnibus budget bill. Hard-working small business owners were counting on these tax cuts to expand and grow their businesses.
We urge the government members to stand by the commitment they made during the election and vote in favour of restoring the small business tax cuts.
I'll let Mr. Caron speak to our amendments.
