Mr. Speaker, New Democrats are worried about the Conservatives' approach to tackling the affordability crisis. Does my colleague think the rich should pay their fair share through higher taxes? Does he think that would help tackle inequality?

Mr. Speaker, I appreciate the question from the member from my neighbouring riding, just across the border. Obviously, everyone needs to pay their fair share. To the member's point when she said to tax the rich, I do not know specifically what she means when she says that, so I am not going to elaborate on that. We need to ensure everyone is paying their taxes, but what we are saying in our motion is that all Canadians need to be paying less.
