We believe Canadians are being over- taxed. We believe that there should be a further reduction in the personal in.come, tax rate~, an additiq1aalfive per cent reduction riglit across the board. That would resuit in a $500 million reduction in the total tax p aid by Canadians - a tax cut of $60. to $150. for mnost taxpayers in this country. Sucli a reduction is long overduè.

There scertainly nosuch pressure for efficiency and economnyat tie present tirne. The Canadian people are atrociously over--taxed by this government. Tiat is wiy I arn introducing a reasoned amendment at this stage of the debate of this particular bill. We do not want to vote against this bill, in its entirety, on second reading because we are in favor of the proposed tax reductions,, miniscule thougli tbey may be, and some other provisions already in- corporated in the bill. But we want' toempiasize that we think the Minister could bave gone mucb further - at least f ive per cent furtber - in those reductions. The purpose of my amend- ment is to indicate this and, if 1 can, to force a vote solely on the question of additîonal fax reductions before the bill receives approvai in princîple, 1 want to see individual members of this House stand up and be counted on whether tbey believe more tax reduc- tiofis are desirable or not. 1 want to see bow the Creditiste members will vote on tax reductions. 1 want to see if the individual N.D.P. members believe, for exampie, that tbeir supporters in thbe organ- ized labour unions want larger pay cheques or hot. But most of aIl, 1 want to see wbetber individual Liberal members of this House are wiling to face the reality of today. Are they ready to recognize that the government they support, by its own statistics, admits tiat it could very easily dllop down its surplus of $3 million per day, $3 million that is being extracted unnecessarily from Canadian taxpayers. The biggest individual pro- fiteer from Can'ada's current inflation is the Canâdian government itself. Surplus governments funds can, and do, only lead to unnecessary and wasteful government spending. Taxes can and should be eut. And the Members of this House sbould now have tie responsibility of facing up to that single issue, and showing where ,tbey stand, by their votes at tuis timne. BETHANY Bethany U.C.W..
