Minister François-Philippe Champagne, answering for the government, said a plan was put in place 100 days ago to address service problems at the agency, that CRA staff are working hard to serve Canadians and ensure everyone pays their fair share of taxes, and that he wanted to thank them for their work.Written by AI from the debate.

Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his important question. My colleague knows full well that 100 days ago we implemented a plan to address certain challenges we have observed in the service provided by the Canada Revenue Agency. I can assure members that everyone working at the CRA is doing their best to serve Canadians well. They are ensuring tax integrity. They are ensuring that everyone pays their fair share of taxes. As we head into summer, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the employees who work at the Canada Revenue Agency.
