These changes would be massive, but the results would be very hypothetical.
Mr. Pineault, I would like to look at something different with you.
I am familiar with your previous work on macroeconomics. Yesterday, I asked some questions of three different business organizations: the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, the Canadian Federation of Independent Business and the Quebec Employers' Council.
These three organizations were asking us to reduce taxation—corporate taxes or payroll taxes, in particular—as well as employment insurance premiums. They also asked us to reduce or eliminate income tax for things dealing with income that comes out of intellectual property, a little like what Ireland does. At the same time, another thing they wanted us to do was increase our infrastructure investments. I asked them how we could reduce our income, increase our investments and balance the budget or even pay the debt. The organizations' spokespersons said that tax cuts pay for themselves because of economic growth.
Could you comment on that?
