Madam Speaker, I would like to ask my colleague a question about the definition of middle class used by the government.
In many communities, at least in my community of Sherbrooke, the definition of middle class is not necessarily the same one that could be attributed to the government, which is cutting taxes. In fact, those earning more than $160,000 a year receive the largest tax cuts.
My colleague from Courtenay—Alberni just said that he calculated that a full-time employee would have to earn $23 an hour to benefit from the government's so-called middle-class tax cut.
Accordingly, could my colleague comment on these facts and figures concerning the middle class, which seem rather high for the Liberal government?
