Potentially, small town and rural Canada is suffering. There's a lot of difficulty attracting non-profit capital to those communities, so it could really make a big difference in the kinds of communities I represent.
In terms of land donations and eliminating capital gains tax on gifts of land, I'd appreciate your views on agricultural communities, in particular, such as the Annapolis Valley, which I represent, where there's a lot of pressure on farmers in terms of development. Their main asset happens to be their land. Many of them would like to see their farmland preserved for agriculture. There are land trusts now being developed and funding raised from community members.
I'd appreciate your views on the capacity to help, not just in terms of parkland and recreational properties but also in terms of helping to preserve prime agricultural land in places like the Annapolis Valley. I think that should be part of your pitch as well.
