Thanks, Mr. Chair. I will trying to keep this short. I agree no one likes to pay taxes, but sometimes taxes are the price of civilization. However, I think what people want to know is that there has been careful consideration of options. Unfortunately, standing committee did not have options to look at. In the plain-language summary of the bill, the federal backstop information that is presented here is based on rural communities in New Brunswick. Can I have some explanation as to why the federal backstop presented in this paper is about rural New Brunswick? Thanks, Mr. Chair.
