Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you to the witnesses for attending today, and we thank you so much for your testimony.
I just want to make it very clear that our government recognizes that farms are unique businesses and hold a very special place and all families who farm. As a son of a farmer, whose grandfather was also a farmer back in Punjab, I understand the hard work that it takes to operate a farm. We really will be focusing, and we're taking a lot of feedback from people testifying on farms, to make sure that there are no unintended consequences of the tax proposals. So thank you for your testimony. We really appreciate the feedback.
My questions are to James.
Thank you so much for your testimony today. You focused a lot on income sprinkling and unfairness. I think there are a lot of misconceptions, and I want to highlight the fact that it's a proposal. The purpose of developing good policy is to talk to Canadians and experts, to get their feedback, and then to go back to the table and draft something that achieves the balance of a more level playing field in the Income Tax Act.
Would you not agree that, like Mr. Macdonald said, you'll still be able to sprinkle your income among your family members, as long as you can prove that they contribute to the corporation?
