Date: Wed, 05 Mar 2008 10:47:00 -0500 From: "Cowan, James" Subject: RE: Bill C-10 Re: Bill C-10 - An Act to amend the Income Tax Act Thank you for your email expressing your opposition to the provisions of this bill as they relate to tax credits for certain television and film productions. Contrary to recent press reports, the bill is not at third reading in the Senate but has been referred to the Banking, Trade and Commerce Committee of the Senate for study. I can assure you that that Committee does intend to hold public hearings on many aspects of the bill. If you wish to make representations to the Committee I encourage you to contact the Clerk of the Committee as follows: - email: banking_banques@sen.parl.gc.ca or mailing address: Line Gravel, Clerk, Senate Committee on Banking, Trade and Commerce, The Senate of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario Canada K1A 0A4. Thank you again for writing to me on this issue. James Cowan
