Pierre Leblanc

Finance committee  Thank you very much for the question. It is not clear how many people, children and parents will benefit from the measure. The measure is intended only to ensure that, in the case of a single-parent family, workers are eligible for the higher amounts of the Canada workers benef

April 29th, 2019Committee meeting

Pierre Leblanc

Finance committee  On the last point, it's the Minister of National Revenue who administers the entire income tax system. I don't think she is going to be assessing all the tax returns that are, for most of us, due tomorrow. It's the Canada Revenue Agency that administers the tax system. It's the C

April 29th, 2019Committee meeting

Pierre Leblanc

Finance committee  That is correct. For earnings of at least $10,000 per tax year, an amount of $250 can be accumulated. I'll give you an example. Let's say that four years from now, I intend to take a course to improve my skills that will cost $2,000. While I am working, I accumulate $250 per ye

April 29th, 2019Committee meeting

Pierre Leblanc

Finance committee  Yes. There are at this time two lists for the tuition tax credit. Every province or territory has its list of post-secondary institutions, be they universities, colleges or CEGEPs, and the tuition fees charged by these establishments are eligible. The Department of Employment an
