Mr. Speaker, it is always an honour to answer questions from my colleague from Repentigny. I have known my colleague, who used to be with Greenpeace, for nearly a decade. I am used to his opposition to all governments.

Mr. Speaker, yesterday's budget included tax measures for artists. If someone is a Canadian artist, for example, they will not have to pay tax on their income up to $45,000.

Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my friend and colleague from Compton—Stanstead for her strong advocacy on behalf of her constituency. She is incredible, and I have a great deal of respect for her.

S-5 Mr. Speaker, the member for Edmonton Southeast mentioned in his great speech that the Canadian Medical Association estimates that some 20 million hours are spent on administrative work.

I am curious as to whether the member can comment on how many of those 20 million hours
Mr. Speaker, I have the honour to present a petition signed by members of the Cambodian community in the riding of Honoré‑Mercier in Montreal.

Madam Speaker, I spent the summer knocking on doors and speaking to a lot of seniors, some youth and a lot of middle-class folks. What I heard was that there are challenges around income tax filing.
