Mr. Speaker, the leader of the NDP complaining about high taxes would be like Colonel Sanders complaining about the rights of chickens.
Where was he when we tried to cut the GST? He was leading the charge to keep the GST at its historic high level.
This side of the House would have none of that. That is why we cut taxes and that is why Canada is in the economic position that is enviable in the rest of the industrialized world.
No one in Canada speaks up for lower taxes more than this government and this Prime Minister.
