That is a question for the Prime Minister.
As I said in my testimony, the federal government's stand on tax havens seems ambivalent. On the one hand, it keeps saying that it wants to do something about tax havens. On the other hand, I testified before Christmas at a commission on international trade where the signing of a tax treaty with Panama was being negotiated. When we sign tax treaties with tax havens, we allow revenues that should have been taxed in Canada by the Canadian government to be exempted from taxes completely. We allow them to pass through tax havens where there are no taxes and we let them come back on Canadian soil without being taxed.
If we want to do something internally, it is true that there is much to be done on tax havens and it must also be done internationally. But there are still things that can be done nationally, such as limiting tax agreements. I am not talking about the tax information exchange agreements that Mr. Owens explained earlier. I am talking about tax treaties. Canada should have restrictions on signing tax treaties with tax havens. More review processes should be implemented and more money should be invested in the review processes of all transactions that take place in tax havens. In my view, we should also try to be more creative when it comes to informants. We have to be more daring in terms of information methods. I think the Canada Revenue Agency should consider the current trend towards having major informants.
