Mr. Speaker, I would like to refresh the Prime Minister's memory ever so slightly. He said, during the 1995 election campaign, that he would abolish the GST. He made a solemn promise to abolish the GST and, as with the numerous defence department scandals, we have it on tape.
Not only is the Prime Minister telling us that he will not abolish the GST, but he is confirming that by hiding the new GST in the price of goods, the federal government will more easily be able to increase it, unbeknownst to the public. Is that correct?
