Mr. Speaker, two new Swiss banks are now facing fines from the United States for helping wealthy clients evade taxes. Still there is no action from the Conservatives to actually charge Canadians found to be stashing millions overseas.
We are losing up to $8 billion a year to tax havens. That money could help pay for child care, health care, transit or boosting economic innovation. However, the Conservatives have totally failed to get serious on cracking down on tax havens. Why do they keep letting the wealthy and well connected avoid paying their fair share?

Mr. Speaker, that question is absolute nonsense. Our government has always had zero tolerance for tax evasion.
Let the numbers and the record speak for themselves. From 2006 to March 31, 2014, CRA audited over 8,600 international tax cases, identified over $5.6 billion in additional taxes, taxes that are being collected.

Mr. Speaker, the United States has just imposed hefty fines on two Swiss banks that were helping American taxpayers hide more than $660 million from the taxman. Here, people in the middle class are working harder and harder to make ends meet and are paying their taxes in Canada. However, Canadian corporations have sheltered almost $200 billion in tax havens.
When will the Conservatives take action to ensure that corporations pay their fair share here?

Mr. Speaker, CRA and our government expect all Canadians and all corporations to pay their fair share of Canadian tax.
What the hon. member is talking about is again sheer nonsense. We have more international auditors. We have a greater effort to catch tax evaders, not just individuals but companies as well, who are using offshore shelters to protect themselves from paying Canadian tax.
We expect everyone to pay their fair share of tax and we intend to ensure that happens.

Mr. Speaker, while the middle class is struggling to make ends meet, the Conservatives are allowing Canadian companies to put billions of dollars in tax havens with total impunity.
This year Canadians companies will hide $200 billion from the taxman. Of the five most popular destinations for Canadian direct investment abroad, three are tax havens. That is not right.
Instead of cutting thousands of jobs at the Canada Revenue Agency, will the Conservatives do something to combat offshore tax evasion?

Mr. Speaker, the government has zero tolerance for tax evasion. From 2006 to March 31, 2014, the CRA audited over 8,600 international tax cases, identifying over $5.6 billion in additional taxes. There has been no cut to auditors. In fact, we have increased the number of auditors at CRA.
Our unprecedented investments have provided the CRA with enhanced tools to pursue tax evaders like never before.
Additionally, our government has introduced over 85 measures to improve the integrity of the tax system. The NDP has voted against all—

Mr. Chair, we have major policies to address the problem of tax system fairness, to ensure that everyone pays their fair share of taxes, to keep taxes low for Canadian businesses and families and to help maintain public confidence in the tax system. That is why our government is committed to strengthening tax compliance and closing tax loopholes that enable some businesses and individuals to avoid paying their fair share.

Mr. Chair, I will be sharing my time with the member for Victoria.
Out of the five largest destinations for Canadian direct investment abroad, there are three tax havens. How much money did Canadians invest in those offshore tax havens last year?

Mr. Chair, our economic action plan takes steps in two areas when it comes to closing tax loopholes: it increases funding for Canada Revenue Agency programs that target the underground economy, offshore non-compliance and aggressive tax avoidance by large complex entities; and it also proposes a number of measures to improve the fairness and integrity of the tax system.

Mr. Chair, how is it possible that three out of five destinations for Canadian investment abroad are tax havens? Some people estimate the tax losses to be as high as $7.8 billion a year. Are we losing $7.8 billion a year in uncollected taxes because of Canadian investments in tax havens?

Mr. Chair, economic action plan 2015 announced an additional $200 million over five years to further strengthen the Canada Revenue Agency's ability to combat the underground economy, international tax evasion and aggressive tax avoidance. That includes $118 million over five years to expand the agency's underground economy specialist teams and $25 million over five years to allow the agency to expand its activities to combat international tax evasion and aggressive tax avoidance.

Mr. Chair, I moved a motion in the House calling on the government to calculate how much tax is lost annually because of Canadian investments abroad in tax havens. The government refused.
Why did the government refuse to calculate how much tax revenue is lost annually? Why refuse to submit the necessary documents to the Parliamentary Budget Officer so that he could do this analysis?

Mr. Chair, our government is committed to working with its international partners to improve compliance and address cross-border tax evasion. Canada is one of more than 90 jurisdictions that intend to implement the OECD's G20 common reporting standards in the automatic exchange of financial account information.
It is proposed that this standard be implemented in Canada as of July 2017, allowing for the first exchange of information in 2018. I have been in meetings with the G20, where we discussed this issue.
