Mr. Speaker, I do not know if it was intentional, but my colleague just gave me a great assist.
First, for businesses, I mentioned the wage subsidy. I would like my colleague to work behind the scenes to implement this, because our businesses need it to avoid losing legacy knowledge.
My colleague asked me a question, but I will turn it back around on him. I am well aware that he has worked in Quebec and that he knows the reality we face, including the money that is needed to fund the health care system. How does he reconcile his decision to vote for a budget with the knowledge that health care transfers are actually decreasing in real terms?
We are not choosing between voting with the Conservatives or with the Liberals. Today, we have to choose between voting with the Conservatives, who want to get rid of the industrial carbon tax, or with the Liberals, who already got rid of the general carbon tax. This tax was beneficial for people with lower incomes. We do not look at who we are voting with. We look at who we are voting for.
We always vote for Quebec and Quebeckers.
