"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1755837\" data-originallang=\"en\">Then there was some confusion about whether this was a credit or a deduction, and I used the example of some young individual in a first job making $30,000. So based on the bill, 40% of that is $12,000 and they are allowed to deduct $3,000. So they deducted $3,000 from their gross, because it says gross salary here, so now they are taxed on $27,000 instead of $30,000. This is a credit, which means that after all the deductions, including the $9,000 you get as a personal exemption.... Let's say they owed $4,000 in federal tax. So $3,000 of that could be deducted and they actually owed $1,000. That's what you mean by a credit. Is that not correct?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1755837\" data-originallang=\"en\">Il y avait \u00e9galement une certaine confusion entourant la nature de cet instrument \u2014 est-ce un cr\u00e9dit d'imp\u00f4t ou une d\u00e9duction fiscale \u2014 et j'ai cit\u00e9 l'exemple d'un jeune qui obtient son premier emploi et qui gagne 30 000 $ par an. D'apr\u00e8s ce que pr\u00e9voit le projet de loi, 40 p. 100 de cette somme correspond \u00e0 12 000 $, alors qu'il a le droit de d\u00e9duire 3 000 $. S'il d\u00e9duit 3 000 $ de son salaire brut \u2014 puisqu'on parle ici du salaire brut \u2014 cela voudrait dire qu'il paierait des imp\u00f4ts en fonction d'un salaire brut de 27 000 $, plut\u00f4t que 30 000 $. Il s'agit d'un cr\u00e9dit, ce qui signifie que, apr\u00e8s avoir tenu compte de toutes les d\u00e9ductions, y compris l'exemption personnelle de 9 000 $\u2026 Mettons que cette personne devait payer 4 000 $ d'imp\u00f4t f\u00e9d\u00e9ral. Elle pourrait d\u00e9duire 3 000 $ de cette somme, si bien qu'elle ne devrait plus que 1 000 $. C'est de \u00e7a que vous parlez en disant que c'est un cr\u00e9dit. C'est bien cela?</p>"
