Madam Speaker, if the hon. member wants to refer to the last election campaign, he should remember that his party was against lower taxes for our SMEs. Yet, we are hearing everywhere, during pre-budget consultations for example, that we must continue in that direction and that this is the way to keep our jobs and provide opportunities for investment and competition. This just shows that we must continue down this same road. I would like to remind the hon. member that 600,000 net new jobs have been created since 2009. That is 600,000 net new jobs since the recession.
I think the facts speak for themselves. One thing is certain: we will continue to recommend a tax plan that is favourable to investment and job creation for our small and medium-sized businesses. That is the way forward.
