Sure. We looked at some other jurisdictions to see how it works there. This is essentially the threshold they have set in the United States. Charitable organizations there are required to provide tax receipts for donations of $250 or above. Essentially, below that the Internal Revenue Service will accept the claim of a charitable donation based on auditable instruments such as credit card receipts, cancelled cheques, and the like.
It struck us as well that in this day, when increasingly people are filing their income tax by e-filing or by telephone, essentially many people don't include those tax receipts. It's a case of our producing the receipts and mailing them out in the first-class mail, when for many people they're not ever looked at again. Is there an opportunity here to save some paperwork, save some money on both ends and move us into the 21st century in this area?
The other point we made is that by law we're required to send out tax receipts by first class mail. That's 51 cents every single time.
