Mr. Speaker, maybe I could give the member a clear example of why the Conservative budget is unfair in its taxation policy.
Let us use the tax-free savings account as the example. Of people who make between $20,000 and $40,000 a year, between 5% and 6% would actually max out the benefits of that tax break. For people making over $200,000 a year, it would be well over 30% and would probably closer to about 36%. What they are doing is providing a tax break that the wealthiest in Canada are going to be able to take advantage of. Not very many of the constituents I represent have an extra $10,000 kicking around the house that they can invest in a TFSA. That is where Canadians sense that the government of Canada is not being fair.
I am wondering if the member can explain to my constituents and Canadians why he believes that what I just said is wrong, because it is true.
