Nothing is safe from GST; now
we're even being taxed to exercise.
Since January of this year when
GST came into effect the Brussels,
Morris and Grey Community Cen
tre and the Blyth District Commu
nity Centre, have, in addition to
paying ice time, paid the seven per
cent tax on top.
Rhonda Fischer, treasurer of
Brussels Minor Sports, said she
attended a GST seminar recently
and learned there is absolutely no
way for the club to get out of pay
ing the tax on ice rental. Mrs. Fis
cher explained that if the sports
club was incorporated with the
municipalities instead of operating
separately it would be eligible to
get back 57.14 percent.
Treasurer of the Blyth organiza
tion, Sharcn Wilson, said that both
the figure skating club and minor
hockey have been gathering infor
mation, to see if there is any way to
change the system. Registration is
not taxed, as it is a service to
minors. Mrs. Wilson says, that
being the case, it should be consid
ered that it is minors using the ice.
"We are working together to see
what, if anything, can be done.
Come Celebrate with us...

GST is a real pain and maybe if
enough complain we can get some
thing back," Mrs. Wilson said.
From July of 1990 to July of
1991 minor hockey ice rental fig
ures for the arena in Brussels came
to $1,941.22, part of which was
GST. In October of this year, which
Mrs. Fischer said should be a fairly
light month compared to the
remainder, there were 47 hours of
ice time rented at a cost of $2,350,
plus $164.50 GST for a total of
$2,514.50.
Mrs. Wilson said that for the
three months of hockey season,
after GST came into effect, it cost
the Blyth organization an additional
$360.85. For October of this year,
there has been $122.32 paid in
GST. An addition the Blyth Figure
Skating Club paid $154.70 in GST
for the first three months of this
year, according to Treasurer Diane
Ferguson. "It is taking a lot of vol
unteer dollars," she said.
GST has been figured into the
fees and equipment purchases and
Mrs. Wilson said that while she
doesn't know the exact figures off
hand, it is well over $100.
The seven percent tax is charged
as well on the admission price to
sporting events, though there is a
bottom line figure, said Mrs. Fisch
er.
