Mr. Speaker, our government is focused on the economy, supporting hard-working Canadians and their families and completing the economy recovery.
Yesterday, we introduced the next phase of Canada's economic action plan, a low tax plan for jobs and growth. Here is what is being said about it.
The Federation of Canadian Municipalities said:
We applaud the Government of Canada for committing in today's budget to develop a new long-term infrastructure plan in partnership with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM), provinces, territories, and the private sector.
The Canadian Association of Retired Persons noted that it was very happy to see the increase in the guaranteed income supplement, an issue that it had raised many times before and that was finally being addressed.
The Certified General Accountants Association of Canada stated:
—we're happy with today's federal budget because many—including families, seniors and small businesses—will benefit from the measures announced today.
We remain focused on supporting hard-working Canadians and their families.
