Mr. Speaker, our tax system is based on two principles, progressivity and individual taxation.
If the hon. member opposite does not agree with progressivity and believes in fact that higher income Canadians should be taxed at a lower rate than lower income Canadians, let him stand in the House and say so.
If the hon. member believes that in fact we should be taxing not on an individual basis but on a family income basis, that a lower income spouse should be taxed at his or her higher income spouse's tax rate, let him stand in the House and say that. What is their agenda?
