Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to our witnesses.
I'm going to go back to the luxury tax issue, because we haven't had a lot of discussion on it. I don't like the luxury tax, personally. It's a regressive tax, similar to the GST/HST. Also, I think it blinds people to purchasing issues, because they get more emotional about it.
What I would like to know is how many orders have been cancelled and what are dealers doing in terms of down payments? Are they keeping the down payments on those purchases, or are they taking the down payments from consumers who were going to purchase?
You are identifying that there have been a lot of cancellations, so I'd like to know that, because that's one of the consumer issues I've been dealing with.
