Mr. Speaker, on budget day we see what is and every day after what is not. The $2,000 child tax credit does not mean $2,000 but $310 maximum. The poorest get nothing.
The working income tax benefit does not even apply to single workers in Ontario working full time for minimum wage because they make too much.
For aboriginals, the environment and our competitive economic future, the closer we look the less there is, with all the opportunity but no ambition for Canada.
Political parties need tacticians, but countries need leaders. When will the Prime Minister start acting like a prime minister?
