Mr. Speaker, yesterday I asked the Prime Minister whether he supported applying a new GST to health care and medication. He gave the following answer, and I quote: "All taxes collected by the government go into the government's consolidated fund and this money is used to pay for all the government's programs." With this answer, the Prime Minister left all of his options open.
Will the Prime Minister tell us, yes or no, if he is preparing to extend the GST to health care and medication, as some of his own members have hinted?
