The issue around income sprinkling is very much about making sure that we have a system that doesn't generate advantages that really aren't intended to be there.
If a family is running a business, or if a professional has his or her spouse or children actively engaged in what they are doing, we believe that's really important to continue. We want to make sure that spouses and family members can work, whether it be in a professional office or small business, or on the family farm. That's critically important.
What we're saying—and we're hearing from across the country a lot of understanding of this issue—is that for people who aren't engaged in any way in the professional office or in the small business, they shouldn't be getting income sprinkled just so that the person who is engaged can lower their income and pay a lower rate of tax. That's the goal.
