Mr. Speaker, first, it is not a tax, it is a charge. As we have pointed out many times in the House, the charge was brought in soon after September 11 when we were afraid traffic volumes would be low. The matter will be re-examined in the fall. Should the situation change, the government has said many times in the House that we will lower the charge.
House of Commons Hansard #167 of the 37th Parliament, 1st Session. (The original version is on Parliament's site.) The word of the day was c-33.
