On the same topic, I have the budget here but since he's opened up the lead I can do it. I want to take you to page 63, please.
I've been dying to ask this question, I have to tell you. There is a series of examples given that purport to give comparisons between the way things were before the budget was submitted and the way things will be when this budget is passed with the majority government. What I find interesting, as always, is the fine print on this. That is to say, at the very bottom of these examples where it's assumed that in every single case families are better off after the changes than they are before it, there's a very important subtext on this which says, the very last words, that the calculations above “do not claim any deductions”.
To be clear, is it not the case that in every one of these examples the possibility of the couple who fit the profile for these examples do not include the education tax credit; the book tax credit, if it's available; income splitting; the child fitness tax credit; or the child's arts tax credit in order to compare the changes that are being sought in this budget?
