Mr. Speaker, the current circumstances are not any different from those of a year ago. The only thing that has changed is the minority Conservative government's promises.
The Prime Minister promised free rein to income trusts, and now he acts surprised to see that so many companies availed themselves of it.
Why does the Prime Minister not have the courage to say to Canadians that he made a promise, he broke it and he is sorry? It would be so easy to say.
