Budget 2007 helps working fami
lies and individual Canadians through, as I mentioned yesterday, a new working income tax benefit, WITB, of up to $1,000 per family, $500 per individual, which will help 1.2 million
Canadians over the welfare wall; a new $2,000 tax credit for every child under 18, to reduce taxes for 3 million Canadian families; a $1,000 tax credit to cut taxes for working Canadia
ns; a tax fairness plan that cuts taxes for ...[+++] seniors by over $1 billion every year; improved RESP flexibility to allow more families to save for their children's education; a new long-term savings plan for parents of children with severe disabilities; and fairness for single-income families by ending the marriage penalty.
Le budget de 2007 aide les parents qui travaillent et les particuliers, comme je l'ai mentionné hier, grâce à la nouvelle Prestation fiscale pour le revenu gagné, la PFRG, qui peut s'élever à 1 000 $ pour les familles et à 500 $ pour les particuliers. Cette mesure aidera 1,2 million de Canadiens à s'affranchir de l'aide sociale.
