Mr. Speaker, for four years leading up to the election, the Liberals vowed they would scrap the GST. The finance minister talks about nerve. Yesterday he did not have the nerve to call the GST by its name in the budget. He did not have the nerve to even mention it.
The finance minister is playing Canadians as a bunch of suckers. He is saying: "Too bad you did not read the fine print in the red book, but we are not going to meet our promise on the GST". The evidence is overwhelming. They promised it. When are they going to follow through? When are they going to scrap the GST?
