Mr. Speaker, the fact is that the Government of Quebec is going to tax back the $1,200, just like the Prime Minister's party intends to do. The words will never cross his mouth because it does not match the message box.
The fact is the government is breaking its promise to Canadians. If it were to deliver the funds through the child tax credit, this money would actually end up in the pockets of the parents who need it the way they were promised.
There are a couple of surprises here. We have a multi-year plan to tax back the $1,200. It was no surprise to have a multi-year corporate tax giveaway, but this one is a surprise.
Will the Prime Minister apologize to the people of Canada for breaking his promise and taxing back what he is giving them with the other hand?
