Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am glad that the Minister of Finance is working on his math, because my math tells me that this is really not a good revenue option. He is proposing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to collect very little money.
Mr. Speaker, I propose that this is not just a tax question. Has he thought about those small bed and breakfast operators, most of whom are in his riding?
Let us just think about how this works out in practice. We have to think about a little bed and breakfast operator with four rooms who has to write a cheque to the government every month. They may get $500 in income and they have to write a $50 dollar lousy cheque to the government every month. Has the Minister thought about that, Mr. Speaker?
