✘ S-243 (Reporting on Unpaid Income Tax)
Voted nay. Bill defeated.
Bill
S-243: An Act to amend the Canada Elections Act (Foreign Contributions).
Second reading.
Vote
Nay.
Rationale
The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) already publishes research and estimates on various components of the tax gap and has a strong public commitment to continue to do so. Therefore, adding a legislative requirement to collect, compile, analyze and abstract statistics on the tax gap in the CRA’s annual Departmental Results Report is unnecessary.
Result
Defeated.
