It goes without saying, then, that if we hadn't put up this fuss, Finance wouldn't have sent out the updated press release. What specific date were you told that a new policy decision was going to be taken?

It's very difficult to say. It's an ongoing and iterative process that the Department of Finance has with the minister's office and the minister in terms of briefings and reacting to events, so....

Mr. McGowan just said you were informed.
Anyway, having said that, obviously you were informed by the government that something was going to take place and that this reversal was going to take place. Did cabinet have to approve this new policy direction, or could it solely be made by the Minister of Finance?

I would say that these decisions are made by the government and implicitly the cabinet—the cabinet with respect to tax-related matters. It can be the Prime Minister with the Minister of Finance along with other ministers, depending on, potentially, the nature of the issue. It's a decision that is taken in concert by the federal government.

You know, I understand that the government doesn't like Bill C-208, but not a single amendment was put forward by the government through this whole process, and now we still don't have amendments. The government is talking about them here, but if there are amendments, why aren't we seeing them now, so that we can discuss them before a committee like today's?
Have you been asked to put forward amendments? You've had 20 years.

The government announced its intention to release...or said that amendments to the Income Tax Act relating to intergenerational transfers would be forthcoming. In its July 19 press release, the government announced an intention to release draft legislative proposals on the subject.

What specific legal authority did Finance use to release and announce this tax policy change without providing amendments?
