Mr. Speaker, I want to correct the record. Oftentimes we are faced with some inaccuracies coming from the other side.
I note that the funding for Status of Women was increased by 42%, bringing it to its highest level ever, at $15.3 million in the last budget, and the member voted against this.
My question has to do with taxes. I want to also point out that I think most Canadians obviously support a reduction in the GST, which is something that maybe the Liberals do not understand. We have had many Liberal members who have publicly stated that they would raise the GST if they came back into power.
Does the member agree with the Liberal approach to the GST? If so, how much would she raise the GST by and how quickly would she do it?
