Mr. Speaker, a lot of those people are not paying taxes because they do not have a job or do not earn enough, thanks to the Conservative government.
The Conservative $5 billion income-splitting scheme would give the most money to people who need it the least. There is nothing for single moms. There is nothing for parents who are in the same tax bracket. There is nothing for 86% of Canadians.
Canadian families have changed a lot over the years and take every shape and size, yet the Conservatives have not kept pace. I am sure the Conservatives thought the fifties were sure swell, but we need policies that work in 2014. When will they change their mind on this policy that is bad for Canadian families?
