Mr. Speaker, as a group we need to look at how we help disabled persons, who actually have receipts, with their expenses. There are indirect costs that allow somebody to get out into the community. However if they have trouble walking, they will always have to pay more for parking places that are way closer to their job than people who can park farther away at a much cheaper cost. There are many interpretations of this. It really was an acknowledgment that it costs some people a great deal of money to earn the same salary. That was what we intended.
There has been some trouble and the disabled community is very clear that some people accidentally received the credit. We need to make it clear that they do not qualify in a certain way. That does not mean that those who do have genuine expenses in order to contribute to society but who do not happen to have tax receipts applied to them should not be allowed to have that level playing field that was the intent of the disability tax credit.
