Mr. Speaker, I invite the minister to kiss the Pope's ring.
If the government does not want to believe the conference board, maybe it will believe the KPMG study that the government trumpeted just a month ago. In that study the government was arguing, by virtue of that study, that as the dollar strengthened more Canadians would lose their jobs. We would lose our competitive advantage.
Why will he not cut taxes so that Canadian business does not have to compete with one arm tied behind its back?
