Adjournment Proceedings

In an adjournment debate, Conservative MP Jacob Mantle raised a question he had asked the Minister of Agriculture about tax rules that make it costly for farmers to pass their land to the next generation, asking whether the government would fix these rules in the fall. Liberal MP Ryan Turnbull replied that farm succession is a real challenge, pointed to a recent bill making the capital gains tax exemption permanent for sales of businesses to employee ownership trusts or worker co-operatives, and said the government is open to exploring how that model could help farmers. Mantle also used his remaining time to say he disagreed with the Speaker’s ruling from the previous day, arguing it had given the government an unfair procedural advantage in proposing changes to a bill. Turnbull also said the government had cut taxes and offered support for jobs, apprentices and first-time homebuyers, and criticized the Conservatives for voting against that cost-lowering bill.Written by AI from the debate.
