Mr. Speaker, the hon. member for Yukon did not answer the question from my colleague from Repentigny, but it is not that complicated.
A tax was scrapped, and then a rebate cheque was sent out to offset payments that had not been made. So much for sound fiscal management. This measure is going to cost Canadian taxpayers $3.7 billion. The worst part is that Quebeckers did not get that cheque, but they are going to have to pay $800 million to reimburse Canadians who did not pay the tax.
Can someone explain to me what goes through the Liberals' minds when it comes to managing public finances?
