Mr. Speaker, this Parliament always has had strong, robust debates on taxes.
Every single time that British Columbians have had a choice, they have always voted for lower taxes not higher taxes. That is why British Columbians understand that if they want members of Parliament who are going to advocate for lower taxes, they will always vote for the Conservative Party. When it comes to lowering the GST, lowering income taxes, lowering the cost of living for seniors, it is always the Conservatives who have stood up for the right side when it comes to consumers.
That member should know better, because after all, when he was a city councillor in Coquitlam he voted time and time again to increase taxes on homeowners.
