Mr. Speaker, the government's harmonization agreement is a half-baked national embarrassment. It is no wonder that the member for Broadview-Greenwood decided to take the high dive from the Liberal caucus.
Not only does this agreement take $1 billion from the many to give to a few Liberal politicians-and I notice that Brian Tobin is here to get his hands on the spoils today-it obviously breaks the Liberal promise to scrap, kill and abolish the GST.
Why is the government laughing in the face of voters by failing to fulfil its promise to scrap the GST?
