Madam Speaker, first, we would like to have a French version of the amendment. That would help us with our work in this debate.
With regard to the question just asked by the government representative, I would say that the big difference is that elected officials in the opposition do not have the same influence as the Prime Minister does.
Do not forget that when the Prime Minister worked at Brookfield, he moved the head office from Toronto to New York to avoid the minimum corporate tax. That would not be possible in Canada. At the last G7 summit, he succeeded in getting the G7 members to back down on the demand to introduce a global minimum tax on American companies. By so doing, the Prime Minister is helping to make himself richer because he can probably assume that his blind trust still holds shares in Brookfield. The same goes for the web giants, GAFAM. He decided to scrap the digital tax that targets them. However, since his trust also holds shares in this sector, he is benefiting and making money.
What does my hon. colleague think about that?
