Mr. Speaker, through you, I would ask my colleague opposite why her party is opposed to logical social and economic policy. Why is it so proud of making cuts that economists across the country believe are bad economic policy?
There are some very good proposals for tax credits and tax cuts that would benefit Canadians. The eco-energy tax credit, which was first proposed by our former leader, Jack Layton, was a job creator, was good for the environment, and helped people improve their homes. The Conservatives, in a minority, did adopt that proposal from the NDP.
However, what has the current government done? It cut that proposal. That was a tax credit that actually made some sense, and the government wanted nothing to do with it.
