Mr. Speaker, after the Prime Minister capitulated and allowed Mr. Trump to reimpose softwood lumber tariffs, three sawmills in Saguenay shut down.
One way to stimulate demand for Canadian lumber is to build houses. However, the Prime Minister is working hard to build bureaucracy instead, by creating programs that he admits do not even build housing. I have proposed eliminating the GST on new homes, which will spur the construction of another 30,000 homes.
Will he allow us to hold an election so that Quebeckers can vote to axe the GST on housing?
