Obviously, at each step, it must be determined if a given tax measure is adequate. Its fairness, its efficiency in generating revenues and its relevance must be taken into account.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"620733\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I hope that the government will display the same maturity we are finding today in Bill <a data-HoCid=\"2515623\" href=\"/bills/39-1/C-33/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Income Tax Act, including amendments in relation to foreign investment entities and non-resident trusts, and to provide for the bijural expression of the provisions of that Act\">C-33</a>, which we support, but many aspects of this issue have not been addressed.</p>",

Il est certain que, \u00e0 chaque \u00e9tape, il faut d\u00e9terminer si une mesure fiscale est ad\u00e9quate et tenir compte de son caract\u00e8re \u00e9quitable, de la capacit\u00e9 de recueillir les fonds, mais aussi de la pertinence de le faire. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"620733\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Je souhaite que le gouvernement ait cette maturit\u00e9. On la retrouve dans le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"2515623\" href=\"/bills/39-1/C-33/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Income Tax Act, including amendments in relation to foreign investment entities and non-resident trusts, and to provide for the bijural expression of the provisions of that Act\">C-33</a> aujourd'hui, projet de loi auquel nous sommes favorables, mais de nombreux aspects de cette question n'ont pas \u00e9t\u00e9 trait\u00e9s. </p>"
