I have spoken with major accounting firms across the Canada, and many of them believe that this bill is very accurate and should be implemented immediately.
I also want to make the point that I know the Liberal government has said they feel this bill would be okay for agriculture, but if it's okay for agriculture and there are loopholes in it, then why wouldn't there be loopholes on the agriculture side as well?
Taking out one sector when they are all to be treated the same—whether it's small business corporations with share capital that would be allowed as opposed to just segregating out agriculture—is not fair to small businesses across the country, because there is no difference in the manner in which they would be dealt with through major legal counsel or accounting firms in this nation. A tax policy is a tax policy, and it should be set up not for just one sector or agriculture and fishers, but for the small business community.
I now live in the city of Brandon, and as I referred to earlier, I know that it doesn't matter what city we live in, there are small businesses, and many of them are family-run operations.
