The same is true for people who can't afford to join athletic clubs. From what I read in the article, membership in a club would be requisite to qualify for the credit, so not everyone would have equal opportunity to qualify. If I misread the article and merely going for a daily walks qualifie a person for the tax credit then it's no problem, but that's not the interpretation I got.
good point there. I know for me i don't belong to any clubs yet i'm training to run a marathon. I can sure as hell guarrantee you that i'm getting more exercise then someone who is in a walking or curling club (no offence to either activity) yet may not be able to recieve the credit
