I can assure members that we will not hear a call for higher taxes. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3062835\" data-originallang=\"en\">Canadians are pleased with our government's low tax plan for jobs and growth and for lowering the price on almost everything with our 2% cut to GST.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3062836\" data-originallang=\"en\">What they do not want to see is the NDP's proposed carbon tax that would raise the price on almost everything. Its sneaky tax scheme would have Canadians spend more of their hard-earned tax dollars on gas, groceries and electricity.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3062837\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why does the leader of the NDP want hard-working Canadians to pay for his $21 billion carbon tax?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3062834\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, la semaine prochaine, les d\u00e9put\u00e9s retourneront dans leur circonscription, o\u00f9 leurs \u00e9lecteurs leur feront part des enjeux qui les pr\u00e9occupent. Je peux garantir aux d\u00e9put\u00e9s que personne ne r\u00e9clamera qu'on augmente les imp\u00f4ts.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3062835\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les Canadiens sont satisfaits du plan de r\u00e9duction des imp\u00f4ts que le gouvernement a mis en oeuvre pour stimuler l'emploi et la croissance \u00e9conomique et du fait qu'il a diminu\u00e9 la TPS de 2 %, ce qui a r\u00e9duit le co\u00fbt de la vie.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3062836\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ils ne veulent aucunement de la taxe sur le carbone propos\u00e9e par le NPD, qui augmenterait le prix de presque tout. Ce projet sournois de taxe ferait en sorte que les Canadiens devraient d\u00e9penser une plus grande part de l'argent qu'ils ont durement gagn\u00e9 pour payer l'essence, l'\u00e9picerie et l'\u00e9lectricit\u00e9.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3062837\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourquoi le chef du NPD veut-il que les travailleurs canadiens paient une taxe sur le carbone de 21 milliards de dollars?</p>"
