I'd like to mention that in the report I was involved in, called the MISWAA report, we recommended that two measures be undertaken.
One is to take our various refundable tax credits that we have now--for example, between the federal government and the Province of Ontario, you have a property tax rebate, a sales tax refund, and federally we have a GST refund--and put all those credits together into one overall sustainable credit, which would speak to some of the things that Professor Sarlo said in terms of unreported income.
One of the real problems is that people's federal account is actually an account where they provide money to government in the form of taxes, or they have employment insurance deductions they must make, but at the same time they are not actually eligible for any benefits.
We recommended the idea of a very substantial refundable credit that would go to all low-income Canadians. But as part of that, we also recommended a working-income benefit. It's very interesting to see, for the idea of a working-income benefit, we had in the earlier economic statement of Mr. Goodale last year the introduction of the working-income tax benefit, and this same working-income tax benefit was taken up in the budget of the present government. So we have quite a convergence in terms of the acceptance of the idea that people who are working, and especially at low and minimum wages, need some form of income supplementation, and that's what we're recommending.
