Mr. Speaker, I would like to welcome the Prime Minister back to this place called Parliament. I know the economy has not been necessarily his top priority lately, so let me update him.
While he was away, our economy has completely stalled. Unemployment has gone up, and 110,000 energy workers have lost their jobs.
What is the Prime Minister's solution? Raising existing taxes and bringing in new ones, like a new carbon tax and a whopping CPP tax hike. His high-tax, high-spending plan is not helping; it is hurting.
When will the Prime Minister realize this plan is failing Canadians?
