Madam Speaker, it is disappointing that at a time when so many families are struggling to afford the basic essentials, the Conservatives are voting against a GST tax cut, at Christmas no less.
The Liberals' classic half measure not only does not put enough money back in people's pockets but also requires small businesses to change their prices twice in two months at the busiest time of year.
Why will the Liberals not vote for our plan, expand the GST tax cut, make it permanent, put more money back in people's pockets and give small businesses a break?
