We estimate that this measure would generate $105 million in extra tax relief over the 2023-24 to 2028-29 period, or about $20 million a year. Currently, about 44,000 individuals claim the volunteer firefighters' tax credit and another 6,000 claim the search and rescue volunteers' tax credit. There might be some increase from that, but that gives you a sense of the current claimants of these credits.
