As I stated yesterday, it is important for us to lower taxes for the middle class. We have decided that their circumstances must be improved. It is true that we have changed the tax rate for the wealthiest among us. We did add a taxation level for the top 1%, but, at the same time, we reduced taxes for nine million Canadians. On average, that means a person living alone this year will have $330 more in their pocket. That amount will be $540 for families. In short, we did make some tax changes; we lowered them. That was an important step for Canadian families.
