The committee will recall that Mr. Page, the former Parliamentary Budget Officer, asked the CRA to provide him with their tax gap estimate and was initially told that they did not do that. He subsequently asked for the information I specified in the motion so that he and his office could do that analysis, as other jurisdictions in the world have done effectively, and he had no success in that matter. Therefore, I brought the motion to the committee to ask that we request that the CRA do what he has asked for.
