Mr. Speaker, he is the ultrawealthy. He hid his family fortune in a tax-sheltered trust fund so that he would not have to pay the same taxes as everyone else. He vacations with the ultrawealthy on their private islands in tax-preferred locations where they can hide their money and avoid paying their fair share here in Canada. Now, he is paying off the ultrawealthy by spending $54 billion on debt interest, more than on health care. Why give more money to the ultrawealthy bankers and bondholders instead of the nurses and doctors?
