Mr. Speaker, the fact is that on January 1 taxes are going down. Taxes went down on July 1. Next year they are going down $3.9 billion. Since we have taken office EI premiums have gone down $4 billion. That is what they are going down. A substantial increase of $1.8 billion in the child tax benefit, that is money that will be found in the pockets of middle and low income Canadians with children.
The fact of the matter is that taxes have gone down every year since we have balanced the budget and they will keep on going down.
