Thank you very much.
I would obviously support your office's getting additional resources so that you can take on additional studies like that .
My high-level math shows that if you just looked at sales taxes—federal and provincial sales taxes together—it's about $375 million, holding everything else equal on $2.9 billion of sales. Just at the highest level, if you net that out against what the government says it will take in in revenue, it is going to have a substantial net negative impact on the government's coffers.
Is that a fair assessment?
