Mr. Speaker, it is not reassuring that the agriculture minister still does not know that there is going to be a capital gains inclusion rate change that is going to impact Canadian farmers.
Farmers are trying to work hard every day to feed Canadians. The only thing this tax change is going to do is feed an obese Liberal government. The Liberals say this is about fairness, but it is not fair to young farmers. When they buy the family operation, they are burdened with millions of dollars in debt.
This is a gift to the ultra-rich who will buy up family farmland, making mega-multinational industrial farms. Will the Prime Minister admit this is not a tax on the ultra-rich, it is an attack on the very survival of family farms?
