So if we recommend anything, we should recommend the restoration of the funding for this program, as a small piece of one solution to a big problem.
I wanted to stay on the theme of cutbacks just for now. This has dominated all of our thoughts. I think it was best said by Karen Baltgailis, who commented on the wisdom of these kinds of cuts. She said they are really nickels and dimes to our community groups, but that's all they have to put on things like literacy programs and skills training. And yet there are billions of dollars for profit to oil and gas companies that are rolling in profit. They're seeing the best years they've ever had. So it's hard for us to grasp the priorities of this government.
One of the big cuts, of course, is the GST rebates for visitors, which I know--you've said, Mr. Taylor, as have others--is a huge loss for a very necessary and vibrant industry in Canada. I wonder if you realize that for the government just to bring forward the legislation to eliminate the GST rebate program, unlike the case of many of the other cuts, which we're going to have to fight through public pressure, it will require a ways and means motion in Parliament. The ways and means motion has been introduced in Parliament. It's number seven on the order paper. We don't know when the government will bring it forward. They have to give us 24 hours' notice. And they haven't said it's a non-confidence motion. So I have a feeling, given what I've heard from the Bloc and the Liberals, and of course the NDP, that we could have the votes to defeat this motion. I'm wondering if you have any kind of plan or strategy to make sure that every MP is aware of the serious impact of this cut, in short order, so we can be ready to defeat this motion as soon as possible.
