Mr. Speaker, the truth is that the Liberal government starts taxing the incomes of Canadians at a lower level than any other government of the G-7. It starts taxing the incomes of single people as soon as they make around $6,500 a year. The government collects almost $2 billion a year from people who earn $15,000 a year or less, many of them old people, many of them young people and many of them poor people.
My question is for the tax man. How can he ignore the calls for tax relief when the government is taxing lower income people more heavily than any other government in the G-7?
