Dave Epp Conservative
“The government gave tax help to the greenhouse industry, and that is good. Now the government should give that same tax help to all hurting industries, because the Prime Minister failed to make a trade deal with the United States.”
“Mr. Speaker, my hon. colleague across the way has, at times, criticized me in this chamber for not lauding the government’s efforts at supporting industries in my riding, and so I want to congratulate the government for hitting a single when it extended accelerated depreciation to the greenhouse industry. However, with the new-found majority the Liberals are proposing to find at committees, would he attempt, with his government, to hit a home run and extend that accelerated depreciation across all of the industries that are hurting, because the Prime Minister did not get a deal with our neighbour of the south, as promised last July?”
