Mr. Speaker, we would have done one better. We would have taken a million families off the low income rolls, giving them a tax cut.
The employment insurance is the worst kind of tax because it hits the working poor the hardest. It does not make any sense. These people are being gouged by the Prime Minister and the government.
According to the chief actuary of the plan, every worker should get $350 back and small businesses should get $500 back for every worker they employ.
In all seriousness, why is the Prime Minister punishing the working poor?
