Mr. Speaker, who does not love Christmas music? If We Make It Through December is one of my favourites. It is about the difficult times that families experience during the holiday season.
On December 14, our government will help families by pausing the tax on essential items like groceries, toys, children's clothing, holiday goodies and even Christmas trees. However, the Leader of the Opposition, who is a mean one, a Mr. Grinch, does not want the Christmas tax break, that is, unless it benefits his wealthy oil and gas donors.
While Conservatives on the naughty list still refuse to get security checks, on this side of the House, we are making sure that Canadians do not have a Blue Christmas. Across Canada, we are giving smart policy instead of cheap slogans, bringing joy to children and helping restaurants thrive, all to make sure that It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year. That is something to sing about.
