A private member's bill is currently before the House of Commons. My colleague Guy Caron has presented it. It's a bill to change unfair tax practices. Right now it is more advantageous to sell your farm to somebody else instead of selling it to a member of your family.

I don't have this bill before me, but maybe you've heard of it before, and I could give you more information on it.
