Madam Speaker, I thank the hon. Bloc member for her question.
I support the amendment. Any time we have legislation which would increase taxation on Canadians and have a negative impact on entrepreneurs, travellers and even beer drinkers it is not a good thing. It does not make any sense to support Bill C-47.
I support the amendment to defer the bill until the government takes a close look at the impact it would have. I raised the point during debate that taxing duty free stores make absolutely no sense at all. If they are to be taxed the name will have to be changed. They could no longer be called duty free stores if the government started taxing them. I therefore support the amendment to the bill.
