Mr. Speaker, yet the minister ignored the CFIB when it said:
You are not going to pay for a full job through your EI hiring credit.
The minister has now admitted that he failed to ask his own department to analyze a $550-million tax credit. The PBO did the analysis for him and found that the Conservatives want to spend half a billion dollars on 800 jobs.
Why did the minister fail to analyze a $550-million tax credit before introducing it?
