Currently, this year, the number was between $400 million and $500 million, anticipating another $300 million with TELUS and BCE, were they to convert to income trusts as they had announced they intended to do; and then the corporate income taxes that would not have been paid by those two companies, which they have spoken about publicly, in their own estimates, were together in excess of $1 billion next year.
À l'heure actuelle, cette année, le chiffre se situait entre 400 millions de dollars et 500 millions de dollars, et on s'attend à encore 300 millions de dollars lorsque TELUS et BCE deviendront des fiducies de revenu, selon leur intention annoncée; à cela, il faut ajouter l'impôt sur le revenu des entreprises que ces deux entreprises n'auraient pas payé, dont elles ont parlé publiquement, et dont elles estiment qu'il totalise plus d'un milliard de dollars pour l'année qui vient.
