Mr. Speaker, we all certainly learned something yesterday. After eight weeks of dithering and evasion, we learned which side the Conservatives are on. The Conservatives had a chance to be very clear and say that a teacher or a welder should not pay tax at a higher rate than a multimillionaire, but they just could not help themselves. At the end of the day, the Conservatives are always on the side of those at the very top and always against working people. That is what we saw yesterday.

Mr. Speaker, the Conservative leader is squirming. The Conservative leader is nervous, and I know why he is nervous. It is because we presented him with a very clear choice yesterday: One can be on the side of someone who sweats every day, who earns all their money through their paycheque, or someone who is earning more than $250,000 in capital gains every single year. We know whose side we are on. Now we know whose side they are on, too.
