Mr. Speaker, the tax system is not necessarily based on what you receive, it is collective of people who recognize that governments have to operate, programs have to be delivered and the taxation system does not normally respect any particular group or individual for any particular purpose, Mr. Speaker. The mere fact that people are working in the Northwest Territories displacing someone else from the Northwest Territories from earning that pay cheque, in my opinion, would be good enough reason. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
