Pierre Paul-Hus Conservative
“The Prime Minister has not been clear about what joining the European Union as an associate member means. Can he promise that Canadians will never pay money to the EU, and that Canada will never follow EU laws or taxes?”
“Mr. Speaker, since the summit in Montreal, the Prime Minister has remained remarkably vague about his vision of associate membership in the European Union. My question is very simple. Can the Prime Minister guarantee that Canadian taxpayers will never have to send money to the European Union and that Canada will never be subject to European taxes, laws or regulations?”
