Mr. Speaker, common sense tells us that today is a great day for Canadians and small business owners.
In August 2015, we made an election promise that I am going to quote. “...we [will] reduce the small business tax rate to 9% from 11%....” Today we kept the promise we made. We are proud that we have kept our promise to reduce the business tax rate from 11% to 9%.
We really listened to Canadians, and the caucus, in order to make our tax system fairer for all Canadians.
