Mr. Speaker, safety is a big issue but obviously taxes are also a big issue.
In the March throne speech, the government was very clear that there would be no new taxes. Since then we have had tax increases on fishermen, tax increases on cassette decks, tax increases on retirement and now a new tax on rowboats.
The throne speech said one thing, the government is doing another. Is this broken promise another act of God or are we merely heading into uncharted waters looking for more tax revenue?
