Mr. Speaker, it is now the middle of February, less than two weeks away from the deadline for employers to file T-4s with Revenue Canada.
Due to a strike at a warehouse in Vancouver, T-4s, the northern residents deduction and other tax forms are unavailable to British Columbia businesses.
My question is for the revenue minister. Last year a filing extension was given to the victims of the ice storm. Will he extend the same courtesy to western Canadians who have been adversely affected through no fault of their own by this work stoppage?
