Mr. Speaker, there is a typical NDP-Liberal Nova Scotian, who thinks that Canadians have never had it so good. He thinks that quadrupling the carbon tax, which he wants to do, is good for Canadians, that increasing housing taxes and job-killing capital gains taxes is also good for Canadians. I will tell the member what The Economist says. It says that Canada is “poorer than Alabama”, which is the “fourth-poorest” state in the U.S. The Economist also says that, over the last five years, U.S. economic growth has doubled Canada's. The Financial Post says that the Canadian standard of living decline is the “worst...in 40 years”.
Will the Prime Minister axe the taxes that are making Canadians poorer?
