Mr. Speaker, our plan is to invest in the most ambitious housing plan this country has ever seen and to invest in supports for seniors, supports for young people and supports for Canadians with disabilities. The Conservative leader is choosing to demonstrate what everyone knows Conservative parties do, which is protect the wealthiest and let everyone else fend for themselves. While we are asking the wealthiest Canadians to pay a little more by raising the capital gains inclusion rate for anyone making over $250,000 in a given year on selling properties, he is standing with the wealthiest, not with the middle class and people working hard to join it.

Mr. Speaker, it should actually be no surprise to Canadians to see the Conservatives, after pretending to care about workers and after pretending to care about vulnerable people revert to type, stand against an ask for the wealthiest to pay a little bit more in taxes so we can invest even more in Canadians who need it, whether it is through a national school food program, whether it is expanding places in child care or whether it is delivering dental care for seniors and Canadians with disabilities. These are all things the Conservatives stand against, just like they stand against asking the wealthiest to pay their fair share. That is a shame.
