Garnett Genuis Conservative
“Unemployment is high, especially for young people. The government wants to raise employment insurance premiums, which is a tax on jobs. This will make it harder for businesses to hire people. Why is the government raising taxes on jobs to pay for its spending?”
“Mr. Speaker, those apprentices desperately need projects to go forward that they can work on. Canada faces an unemployment crisis, most severe among youth, yet this Liberal costly credit card budget plans further increases to EI premiums. Increasing the tax on jobs now would make it harder for businesses to create jobs and would make the jobs crisis even worse. Why are the Liberals paying for their costly credit card budget with further tax increases on jobs?”
