Madam Speaker, Erin O'Toole got it, so did the 337 other Conservative candidates who ran in the last federal election, including that member. Their election platform said they would do the same thing. Their former leader tweeted that he was going to provide this GST break for the holiday season. The leader of the Conservative Party retweeted the idea.
Now, the members seem to express concerns about or give excuses for how they have managed to get themselves into that pretzel twist and turn and flip-flop to justify their vote. The bottom line is they say they want to give a tax break to Canadians, and when it comes right down to a vote, they do the same thing they did when it came to giving a break and cutting the taxes for the middle class: they vote against it.
Does the member not see the hypocrisy there?
