Mr. Speaker, the Liberal leader should know that budgets do not balance themselves, and neither does his platform.
He admits there is a $2 billion hole in his platform. On top of that, economists say that his proposed tax increases will not raise the money necessary to fund his expensive promises. He has a massive financial hole. The only way to fill that hole will be higher taxes on the middle class. He already wants to take away income splitting from families. We know he would take it away from seniors too.
