He always has a very thoughtful question and intervention in this place.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9022797\" data-originallang=\"en\">As I mentioned in the speech, transparency is very important.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9022798\" data-originallang=\"en\"> In terms of cost, I would just say that much of the work is already being done in these departments to understand what corporations owe what money. This bill would just require some of that information to be made public. Today, the people at CRA already know who owes what money. They already know what they write off because they have to publish the aggregate numbers in the public accounts every year. My estimate would be that this bill would not incur any additional costs to government. It would just require that some of the information it already holds be made public.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"9022796\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, je remercie mon coll\u00e8gue du Bloc. Ses questions et ses interventions \u00e0 la Chambre sont toujours tr\u00e8s r\u00e9fl\u00e9chies.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9022797\" data-originallang=\"en\">Comme je l'ai mentionn\u00e9 dans mon discours, la transparence est tr\u00e8s importante.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9022798\" data-originallang=\"en\"> En ce qui concerne les co\u00fbts, je dirais simplement qu'une grande partie du travail est d\u00e9j\u00e0 faite au sein des minist\u00e8res pour d\u00e9terminer quelles sont les entit\u00e9s vis\u00e9es et quels sont les montants exacts des cr\u00e9ances. En fait, ce projet de loi exigerait simplement que certains de ces renseignements soient rendus publics. Aujourd'hui, l'Agence du revenu du Canada a d\u00e9j\u00e0 identifi\u00e9 les entit\u00e9s et le montant de leurs cr\u00e9ances. L'Agence sait d\u00e9j\u00e0 quels sont les montants radi\u00e9s ou vis\u00e9s par une renonciation parce qu'elle doit publier les chiffres globaux dans les comptes publics chaque ann\u00e9e. Je serais port\u00e9 \u00e0 croire que ce projet de loi n'entra\u00eenerait aucun co\u00fbt suppl\u00e9mentaire pour le gouvernement. Il exigerait simplement qu'une partie de l'information d\u00e9j\u00e0 en sa possession soit rendue publique.</p>"
