A final word

The Canada Revenue Agency is thankful to have productive partnerships with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce and the Chartered Professional Accountants Canada (CPA Canada). This report shows just how much the CRA and these two national organizations can accomplish when they take an active role to make sure the Government of Canada has an improving, evolving, and world-class tax and benefits administration.

We were pleased to learn that you appreciate the CRA’s efforts to improve our programs and services for businesses. You expressed a real appetite to share ideas and also to engage in a discussion that will lead to improvements to the tax system. These Serving You Better consultations are very important to the CRA. They are a primary source of direct feedback from small and medium businesses and their stakeholders. Thanks to all who provided comments and suggestions.

The CRA wishes to thank all the representatives of provincial, territorial, and local governments who participated in the Serving You Better consultations.

“Business owners join their local chambers of commerce all across Canada because they know it will help their businesses thrive and grow. Our members also know that by helping the CRA better understand the tax issues they face, they are helping to hone their competitive edge. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce is pleased to add the 2016 Serving You Better consultations to our list of productive partnerships with the CRA, and we look forward to continuing the work with the agency on behalf of businesses of all sizes.”

The Honourable Perrin Beatty, President and CEO, Canadian Chamber of Commerce
