Mr. Speaker, we were talking about tax havens during the debate, but this bill does not have anything to do with tax havens. It would be nice for the government to take action on tax havens, but I am not sure that is the domain of the Criminal Code.
However, the member and other members of his party are absolutely correct and relevant in respect of the lack of prevention measures. Where are the preventive tools to deal with fraud? Surely the government, in other bills that might come before the House, could come up with methods to attack the fraudsters. As the law newsletter from Miller Thomson, a firm I have never been associated with and am not advertising for, says, the three big names in Canadian fraud, along with Earl Jones, would not have been affected by this bill.
Agreeing somewhat with my friend, I ask: when is the government going to tackle fraud in a serious way with all the resources it has at its disposal?
