Mr. Speaker, while I do not support the Bloc's motion today, I am somewhat surprised at the Liberal opposition. I know the hon. member for Willowdale has considerable business experience.
I am surprised, given the track record of Liberals and taxation, and looking for ways to wring more money out of the Canadian taxpayer and Canadian business, they are not writing down all the suggestions that the Bloc is putting forward as new ways to get taxes from Canadians and from Canadian business.
The member for Willowdale talked about the underground economy and how the Liberals are dealing with it. That brings me to the reason for the underground economy, the dreaded and hated GST.
Does the hon. member recognize that the GST is the single greatest contributing factor to the underground economy and does he recognize that the underground economy is not going to be conquered until this Liberal government lives up to its promises to abolish the GST?
