Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives are all talk and no action when it comes to tackling tax evasion.
Most Canadians pay their fair share, but the Canada Revenue Agency acknowledged that last year alone it collected just 1% of the $220 million it lost to tax cheats. This comes amid reports that Canada is backing down on the commitment it made to the OECD to go after international corporations that avoid paying their fair share.
Why does the minister show so little commitment to tackling international tax cheats?
