One of the issues we discussed at length was my private member's bill, Bill <a data-HoCid=\"6251830\" href=\"/bills/41-2/C-201/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Income Tax Act (travel and accommodation deduction for tradespersons)\">C-201</a>, which will be debated in the House for the first time next week.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3446391\" data-originallang=\"en\">I am delighted to say that the second petition I present in the House today was circulated as a result of those conversations. It is signed by almost 100 people from Vancouver Island, who are all urging the government to support Bill <a data-HoCid=\"6251830\" href=\"/bills/41-2/C-201/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Income Tax Act (travel and accommodation deduction for tradespersons)\">C-201</a> so that tradespersons and indentured apprentices can deduct travel and accommodation expenses from their taxable income when they work at a construction site more than 80 kilometres away from their homes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3446392\" data-originallang=\"en\">I very much appreciate this expression of support from the west coast, and I am pleased to be able to table this petition in the House today.</p>",

Nous avons beaucoup discut\u00e9, entre autres, de mon projet de loi d'initiative parlementaire, le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"6251830\" href=\"/bills/41-2/C-201/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Income Tax Act (travel and accommodation deduction for tradespersons)\">C-201</a>, dont la Chambre d\u00e9battra pour la premi\u00e8re fois la semaine prochaine.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3446391\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je suis ravie de dire que la deuxi\u00e8me p\u00e9tition que je pr\u00e9sente \u00e0 la Chambre aujourd'hui d\u00e9coule de ces conversations.
