“We are taking steps to help this person. She could save money from our middle-class tax cut, our changes to the disability tax credit, and our lower fuel tax.”
“Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for sharing the story of Shirley in his riding. I have news for Shirley. There are steps we are taking to support her. Shirley could be one of the individuals who might benefit from the middle-class tax cut, which is helping 22 million Canadians. She might also be somebody who is going to benefit from the expanded criteria for and accessibility to the disability tax credit. She might also be one of the individuals who is benefiting from the reduction of the fuel tax by 10¢ a litre. These are all things that can impact seniors but can also impact all British Columbians.”
