Mr. Speaker, it would really not be difficult to vote against giving $250 to a person who earns $150,000 a year. If two people with that income live in the same household, they will get $500, when their household income is $300,000 a year. Meanwhile, a single mother who earns $45,000 will get only $250. This is a really poorly targeted measure.
In the House of Commons on November 22nd, 2024. See this statement in context.
