Mr. Speaker, indeed, this bill, Bill C-30, would be helping Canadians with affordability. We all know this is top of mind for Canadians, wherever we go in the country. Let me point out other good things that are in Bill C-30. It would modify the labour mobility deduction for eligible tradespeople by increasing the annual limit on expenses that can be deducted. It would make permanent the capital gains tax exemption for the sale of a business to an employee ownership trust or a worker co-operative. Those are the types of measures that have been asked for by labour, industry and workers, and they would make a difference. I know that everyone who was elected and sits in the House wants to make a difference for their constituents. There are 18 measures in Bill C-30 that would make a difference in the lives of Canadians. Therefore, I would hope and expect that every member of the House would stand up, support the motion and get down to work.
