Mr. Speaker, small businesses got hit with a $2.3 billion tax hike in budget 2013.
To help them cope, the Conservatives are slashing the Canada Revenue Agency's business assistance program. The budget will force victims of violent crimes to pay GST on medical records they need for court. Meanwhile the Conservatives have slashed border services programs, like the K-9 units, that help stop guns and drugs at our borders.
Why are everyday Canadians being forced to pay higher taxes for fewer of their cherished public services?
