Mr. Speaker, it is simple. We say yes to raising taxes on the gains of the ultrawealthy, but no to raising taxes on the savings of self-employed workers without retirement funds who have invested everything in a triplex.
These people have nothing to do with the real estate bubble. They have nothing to do with the problems that first-time homebuyers are experiencing.
The Liberals have a choice to make. They can work intelligently with us, or they can harm Quebeckers who are not ultrawealthy to score political points against the Conservatives.
Will they make the right choice?
