Employment Insurance Mr. Speaker, yesterday it was reported that the EI surplus has ballooned by $6.5 billion. The government is collecting a whopping 33% more in premiums than what is necessary. Payroll taxes hurt hard-working Canadians and businesses, yet the Liberals only moved to cut premiums

Employment Insurance to government. Well, his idea of integrity has been to balance the books on the backs of hard-working Canadians who pay inflated EI premiums.

The Budget like to say regarding the deficit. First, it was not the government that eliminated the deficit, but hard working Canadian taxpayers. That is something that Liberal members should remember. It is not their own money they are spending, it is Canadian taxpayers' money. They forget

The Budget . It fails because it spends too lavishly and banks on future economic success that is not guaranteed. It fails because it ignores hard-working Canadians, average Canadians who deserve real broad based tax breaks after all the years of Liberal tax hikes and half measures. The budget

Canada Elections Act and donations are the way that political party is funded. We are, however, adamantly opposed to the enhanced public funding of political parties.
