The irony is that, if we were to hire people to collect that money, it would pay the salaries and it would give the government the resources to provide the services that Canadians need.
So it's not just a question of cost; it's an investment. The federal government needs to change the agreements that have been made in the context of tax loopholes. If that work were done, we could have more resources. It's not a question of what it would cost the government; it's a question of the government doing the right thing.
Is that a fair description of the situation?
