Mr. Speaker, I want to find out how well the Minister of Finance has listened to Canadians with disabilities.
Thousands of letters, a committee report and a unanimous vote of the House called on the minister to do three things: amend the Income Tax act to allow for broader access to the disability tax credit; streamline its application process; and, finally, re-examine all tax measures relating to Canadians with disabilities, especially looking to make the disability tax credit refundable for those with no or low incomes.
Has he done these things? Has he listened?
