Mr. Speaker, in an act of great self-sacrifice, the millionaire Prime Minister and millionaire finance minister announced this summer higher taxes for the wealthy, which of course would mean more costs for the Prime Minister's personal trust fund. He might even have to give up his Laurentian countryside estate and his dad's old Mercedes. Even the finance minister will be paying more taxes on Morneau Shepell's profits: kidding. By wealthy people, they meant farmers, plumbers, and hard-working small business people.
How do they manage to raise taxes on everyone except themselves?
