Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives have become a single issue party. The issue is taxes. They want them higher and they will have more of them to pay for their staggering deficit. Their leader told the House two days ago that he will not bring in another budget, and I quote, “until we need to raise taxes”. It is now clear: taxes will rise under the Conservatives.
In these tough economic times, that is not what Canadians need. We need a stable and focused leadership that only the Liberals can provide.
The Conservative government is attacking hard-working Canadian families, and now it wants to make it even harder for Canadians to support their families.
Basically, we will have the Conservatives to thank for higher taxes.
Raising taxes to cover their incompetence is just plain wrong. I know it is wrong. The people of my riding know it is wrong. All Canadians know it is wrong. It is only the Conservatives who have not figured it out yet.
