But this, it seems to me, is a huge change in Canada's economic policy and our competitive and productivity policy. I have a hard time imagining that the minister would make that type of announcement without having had a wide-ranging discussion within the government, both at Finance and at Revenue, as to what it means, what kind of efforts would be needed in the future, what are the expectations for additional revenue on one hand and losses of revenue on the other.
Are you telling me that the minister made that announcement without consultation and discussions within government departments in law?
