They sold their shares before the year finished, and therefore were taxed at a lower rate than they wanted charged on other people.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5156459\" data-originallang=\"en\">One of them might have been the <a data-HoCid=\"214320\" href=\"/politicians/bill-morneau/\" title=\"Bill Morneau\">finance minister</a>, if he did in fact sell the $10 million worth of shares on November 30, 2015. Did he?</p>",

Ils ont vendu leurs actions avant la fin de l'ann\u00e9e. Par cons\u00e9quent, ils ont profit\u00e9 d'un taux d'imposition inf\u00e9rieur \u00e0 celui auquel ils souhaitaient voir les autres assujettis.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5156459\" data-originallang=\"en\">L'un de ces bien nantis \u00e9tait peut-\u00eatre le <a data-HoCid=\"214320\" href=\"/politicians/bill-morneau/\" title=\"Bill Morneau\">ministre des Finances</a>, s'il a effectivement vendu des actions d'une valeur de 10 millions de dollars le 30 novembre 2015.
