Mr. Speaker, once upon a time the finance minister rightly called payroll taxes a cancer on job creation. His department called CPP premiums a payroll tax and every sane thinking economist in the country agrees with that.
The fact is CPP premiums are a payroll tax and the finance minister has just hiked them by 70 per cent.
How many jobs will the Liberals kill with this $10 billion tax grab? Is it 50,000? Is it 100,000? Is it 150,000? How many jobs do they plan on killing with this $10 billion tax hike?
