Madam Speaker, the temporary GST pause helps everyone except the people who need help the most. Low-income households will not save a penny on food, because food is not taxable. They will not save a penny on their hydro bill, because hydro is not covered. They will not save a penny on their rent, phone bill or Internet. The measure does not cover any of their major core expenses. The Liberals and the NDP are subsidizing people who have money to spend while ignoring families who will be forced to settle for another bare-bones Christmas.
Can they not see the unfairness of that?
