Mr. Speaker, the media report today that one of my constituents has again confirmed that the Governor General of Canada, the Commander in Chief of the Canadian Armed Forces, pays no taxes but our troops serving under the Governor General have had their pay frozen and have suffered 37 tax increases by the government.
Why will the Minister of National Defence not treat our troops properly, fairly and with respect? Why will he not give them their long overdue pay raises? Why will he not do what is right?
