Mr. Speaker, first of all, this matter was first raised in 1991 under the previous, Tory government. Second, right after we came to office, we dealt directly with the matter of family trusts and, in our second and third budgets, we eliminated all the fiscal abuses associated with family trusts. Third, the hon. member must know that this matter has nothing to do with family trusts. It was indeed a family trust, but the real issue is how to collect taxes from immigrants when they leave the country. That is the real issue.
In the House of Commons on September 19th, 1996. See this statement in context.
