"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4206251\" data-originallang=\"en\"> We're trying to figure out if this is a solution in search of a problem, and we suspect that it is. Again, if the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> is talking about abuse, that businesses are not legitimate and they're setting this up, and it's basically an employment income that they're hiding in a certain fashion, we will be the first to support that. However, for legitimate business owners, whether they're in one profession or another, we feel that the treatment from the federal government should be the same. Again, I do want to compliment the new government. It has endorsed the reduction from 11% to 9%. Our request is that it be made possible for all, and that there's no threat to it.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4206252\" data-originallang=\"en\">Responding to Mr. Grewal's question, one of the things he was saying is that it wouldn't actually be keeping it at the current 11%; it would be taking the professionals and bringing them up to the big business tax rate of 15% right now. It would be a significant increase in taxation for professionals, not basically a wash.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4206251\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous essayons de d\u00e9terminer si c'est une solution en qu\u00eate d'un probl\u00e8me, et nous soup\u00e7onnons que c'est le cas. Encore une fois, si le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> parle d'abus et dit que les entreprises ne sont pas l\u00e9gitimes et qu'elles font cela, en gros un revenu d'emploi qui est cach\u00e9 de quelque fa\u00e7on que ce soit, nous serons les premiers \u00e0 appuyer cela. Cependant, pour les propri\u00e9taires d'entreprises l\u00e9gitimes, peu importe leur profession, nous estimons que le gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral devrait les traiter de la m\u00eame fa\u00e7on. Encore l\u00e0, je tiens \u00e0 f\u00e9liciter le gouvernement pour avoir appuy\u00e9 la r\u00e9duction de 11 % \u00e0 9 %. Ce que nous demandons, c'est qu'il rende cela possible pour tous et que cela ne s'accompagne d'aucune menace.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4206252\" data-originallang=\"en\">En ce qui concerne la question de M. Grewal, il disait entre autres que le taux ne demeurerait pas \u00e0 11 %, mais que les professionnels seraient \u00e9galement soumis au taux d'imposition de 15 % qui s'applique aux grandes entreprises d\u00e8s maintenant. Cela repr\u00e9senterait une augmentation importante d'imp\u00f4t pour les professionnels, sans pour autant les lessiver.</p>"
