Mr. Speaker, if we want to talk about third party quotes, I have two pages of them but I do not want to read them.
I want to go back to ordinary Canadians. I fully believe in fairness, which is why I supported not taxing the income trusts the way the government has. I am not talking about the millionaires or billionaires. I am talking about ordinary Canadians like the one I mentioned, Mr. Mark Bouchard, the fellow who wanted to build a house and live his dreams in Newton—North Delta. It is his dream that has gone down the pipe.
I have a quote here by John Priestman who is the managing director of the Guardian Capital Group. He says:
[The Minister of Finance] has dropped the ball on income trusts, he's dropped the ball on interest deductibility. . . he's dropped the ball on income splitting. He's promised us dramatic reductions in corporate taxes and individual taxes. How about capital gains? They've delivered on nothing.
