So, Mr. Speaker, no study was done.
Increased rail security: no rail tax. Increased port security: no port tax. Increased border security: no border tax. Increased marine security: no marine tax. For some reason, the Liberal government sees fit to tax the air industry for air security but not any other industry at all.
My question is for the transport minister. Why does the government insist on taxing, unfairly, the air industry for a security regime that it does not impose on any other industry? Why does the government insist on hammering the air industry?
