Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for his input on the motion, but I did not hear very much. I would ask him specifically about the differences that exist that are subject to negotiation.
First of all, there are differences between the Ontario situation and Quebec's situation, because currently there are two taxes in Quebec, which is not harmonization. There are different tax bases on which the taxes are applied for the two provinces. The tax credit situation is different. Who collects the tax, whether it be the province or the CRA, is different from Ontario. Also we have the situation still where there would be a tax applied against a tax.
With those differences, I would ask the minister whether he sees any of these items, if not resolved, to be stoppers to compensation.
