I think that the use of blind trusts is not an appropriate method for dealing with that issue. I think that investments in assets should be fully disclosed for any public office holder to make sure that they are living up to the spirit of the law and paying tax along with other ordinary Canadian citizens whose income in general, I assume, is taxed from their payroll deductions and for whom there's less ability to use offshore bank accounts and advice from high-powered accountants and tax lawyers in order to avoid their obligations to fund domestic services in Canada.
