Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to inform the House that the federal government has entered into negotiations with Ontario with a view to the federal government collecting Ontario's corporate income tax. This is very good news. It will streamline the process. It will reduce duplication. It will provide lower costs and greater certainty to business. In short, it is a fine example of federal and provincial governments working together for the benefit of Canadians.
In the House of Commons on November 4th, 2004. See this statement in context.
