Mr. Speaker, I would like to further add, so that the member does truly understand, we would eliminate the GST unlike his government. Given, however, that the GST is going to be around for another three years or so, if it is possible to improve the
tax regime and eliminate and simplify and reduce taxes, then we would support the government in measures like that.
But as an overall philosophy this party does not and will not support the harmonized sales tax in the present form that this government has put forward.
