Bill C-239

44th Parl. 1st Sess.
April 19, 2023
  • Bill C-239 is an amendment to an existing Act that allows the Minister of Finance to enter into agreements with provincial governments. These agreements would allow the government of a province to collect federal personal and corporation income taxes on behalf of the Government of Canada. This would streamline the tax filing process for residents of Quebec, who currently have to submit separate federal and provincial tax returns. The Minister of Finance is also required to have discussions with the Government of Quebec to enter into such an agreement. The bill also includes provisions for employment protection and ensuring access to necessary tax information.
