Mr. Speaker, truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.
Last week, we learned that the member for Jeanne-Le Ber and the NDP's former national revenue critic, the member for Brossard—La Prairie, owe Revenu Québec tens of thousands of dollars in unpaid taxes. Canadian taxpayers are supposed to play by the rules and pay their fair share.
If the NDP members are so concerned about making sure people follow the rules and pay their fair share, they should practise what they preach.
It is ironic to hear the NDP talk about raising taxes for Canadians when they cannot even manage to pay their own taxes. They are setting a bad example.
