Jasraj Hallan Conservative
“The government's high taxes and rules are hurting Canadian workers and businesses. In the first four months of this year, Canada lost 111,000 full-time jobs, and those jobs are not coming back.”
“Mr. Speaker, I fully agree with the member. Under the government, it is not just the forestry sector but every sector that is suffering. Coast to coast, it affects forestry, which also means lumber, and the auto industry, as well as all the workers who go along with those jobs. In fact, under these guys, just in the first four months of this year, 111,000 full-time jobs have gone. They are not coming back. That is a record. That is the Liberal government’s record. Because of its high taxes, its high burden when it comes to red tape and its bureaucracy, no one wants to stay here in Canada. Our industries and our workers end up suffering the most. Having 111,000 jobs leave Canada, which are probably not going to come back, is not a good look. We are going down with that trend because nothing has changed. The government is going to keep on taxing. It is unfortunate that the only people who get rewarded are at Brookfield.”
