Non-aboriginals are not supposed to be able to buy excise tax duty-free tobacco on-reserve. Of course they do. We're well aware of that. There's a huge underground economy in tobacco. The discussion of late has been amongst first nation chiefs in actually selling legitimate tobacco on reserve, and charging tax on that to non-natives. Given the fact that people are going to smoke, have you even looked at that as a way to get rid of the non-compliant underground economy on tobacco?
