Thank you.
I'll pick up where Mr. Paquette left off, to give you a little more opportunity to speak. I actually come at this from a little bit different angle.
The GST was reduced to 6%, and we know it's going to be reduced to 5%. It's a declining benefit, first of all, for tourism. We know that only 3% of eligible people are collecting it back. It's an inefficient way of processing taxes. It actually costs us ten times as much to provide a rebate as it does to actually collect the tax. The way it was working just doesn't make a lot of sense.
I would argue that it would be much smarter to reinvest those funds into promotion of tourism in Canada, rather than provide a giveaway for people who have already been here.
