Mr. Speaker, the member talked about the brain drain. I think it is an important debate this House should have.
If the member would listen to his own words, he talked about his own son who is drawn away for what he referred to as big bucks. That is one of things we found on the finance committee in looking at this. When someone goes away to get paid a higher salary, no amount of tax relief will change that. It has to do with the onus of the responsibility of business and industry being able to compete globally for the best talent in the world.
Why did the member refer to Canada's tax rate at 50%? He will know that someone making $30,000 a year pays a tax rate of 25%. He will know that somebody who makes $60,000 only pays a tax rate of 30% and someone who makes $90,000 only pays a 40% effective tax rate—
