Mr. Speaker, my hon. colleague from Winnipeg North spoke of fairness. One of the things I found in a lot of the government's omnibus budgets is tax credits that are available only to people who actually have income. We know that in order to enjoy a tax deduction, people have to have income to deduct it from.
A lot of these tax credits should be available to those who do not have income. In fact, those who need it the most are those who do not have income.
I wonder if the member would talk about the lack of fairness in tax deductions or tax credits when they are not designated as refundable tax credits.
