Hi Colin, Cause it's not as simple as the sprinkling of dividends..there are  situations where family members are actually involved in the running of the business and these family members cannot now receive dividends, or take advantage of provisions in the ITA to pass shares of mom's business to them.  Morneau wants to stop the "tax cheats" but he will be killing small business in the process.  These changes amount to nothing less than class warfare by the PM!
Oh, and BTW Trudeau IS a trust fund brat, Morneau married wealth that has taken advantage of the tax act for decades! And former PM Paul Martin, OMG, Canadian Steamships! Anyone remember that tax fiasco! Came on the heels of Sponsorgate!
