Mr. Speaker, pay equity is nothing but pay inequity.
Bureaucrats assigning an arbitrary value to jobs has nothing to do with fairness. It has nothing to do with unity. Every other worker in the country can now kiss a tax cut goodbye so the government can finance its loss to the federal court. It is hard to see the equity in that. There goes the surplus. There goes tax relief.
Why is it that whenever the government makes a mistake, taxpayers end up paying the bill?
