François-Philippe Champagne Liberal
“I want the House to pass this bill. It makes a tax break permanent for people who sell their business to their workers. It supports Canadian workers and businesses.”
“Mr. Speaker, that is a very important question. In fact, we are going to make the capital gains tax exemption permanent when it comes to employee ownership trust. This is a measure that is being applauded by a number of people across the country. It is the kind of thing we see in Bill C-30. It is why, in the questions from opposition members, apart from the parliamentary opposition that we would expect, they should look beyond that. This is a time when we need to do big things for the country and to support Canadians, industry and workers. That is exactly what Bill C-30 would do.”
