I will be brief, Mr. Chair.
My question deals with the government's forecasted revenues, according to the 2018 budget statement. The forecast is for a 6% increase in revenue from personal income tax, which represents an increase of almost $10 billion. However, the revenue from corporate income tax shows a decrease of 1.9%, almost 2%, between the amounts in 2017-18 and 2018-19.
The economy is growing, which means that companies must be doing well. How do you explain a decrease in revenue from corporate income tax?
