Madam Speaker, I would note that we serve together on the same industry committee and I value the member's input greatly in the proceedings of that committee. However, I am not sure this member has read this particular bill because he is referring to another measure our government announced. Granted, we did announce it at the same time as the GST tax break, but what he is referring to is not within this particular bill.
This bill deals exclusively with the GST holiday over the two-month period during Christmas, from December 14 to February 15. It is a moment in time where all of us have the chance to make the holidays just a bit brighter for Canadians who have been through a lot. I would expect all members to be able to support this.
