I was in my constituency last week and they said they did not have the money for more taxes. The federal government is going to lend it to them.
An article in the Globe and Mail dated February 11 warns very much against the infrastructure money. Every tax increase causes a loss of jobs. Taking $7 from a taxpayer to pay for a construction industry job means taking $7 away from a job somewhere else: a department store, the auto industry or a clothing manufacturer. I insist that is going to be a problem down the road.
