Mr. Speaker, the integrity of the tax system is a core national asset. What is critical is that each and every taxpayer knows that he or she will be treated exactly the same as every other taxpayer. That is the principle we are applying in this case. I can assure the hon. member that these individuals will be treated within the law but in a manner that is fair.
