Mr. Speaker, I want to congratulate the hon. member for Marc-Aurèle-Fortin on his excellent speech. As usual, he brings a wealth of experience as a lawyer and financial expert every time he speaks in the House.
Outstanding taxes are a real problem. As we know, the Conservatives have been completely incompetent when it comes to this issue. When they came to power in 2006, there was $18 billion in outstanding taxes. Now there is $29 billion, because they are not even capable of managing the issue of outstanding taxes.
What does my colleague think of the Conservative government's competence when it comes to managing issues such as outstanding tax accounts, which should be pretty easy to manage?
