Mr. Speaker, I have a supplementary question. Why has the minister not hinted publicly, as he has done with respect to all of the previous measures, at the elimination of the preferential tax treatment afforded large corporations and especially at the elimination of family trusts which, according to a weekend report by Claude Picher in La Presse , deprive the treasury of roughly $350 million? Is the minister afraid to target the friends of the government?
In the House of Commons on January 31st, 1994. See this statement in context.
