Mr. Speaker, after eight years under the Liberal Prime Minister, it is no secret that times are tough for Canadians. On April 1, our local breweries, distilleries, wineries and cideries will be hit with a 6.3% increase on the excise tax, the greatest increase in 40 years. Forty-six percent of the cost of a beer is already tax, and now the Liberals want Canadians to pay more. Will the Prime Minister take responsibility for denying our hard-working Canadians an affordable drink and stop the tax increases?
