ACTION PRICED,_, .- 24 -oz pkg 89? .4.. 60. 31.3 5 On April 7th, the Provincial irreasurer brought down the new Ontario Budget, and following are some of the highlights, which will be debated in detail in the .Legislature. Effective April 8th, ,the basic Retail Sales, Tax will be 5 percent instead of 7 percent, although this is only until the 31stDecembelr,1975. iv The Ontario GAINS rate will rise to $246 per month per, person ($480 a married couple) as of the lst May, and a further 7,000 pensioners will be eligible for GAINS, raising the total number of beneficiaries to 310,000 this year. There will also be free drugs for all those .414 over 65, although anyone who has lived in Ontario less than ten years must apply to the Ministry of Revenue. This will be effective August 1st. Some 450,000 low income taxpayers will be removed from the Ontario income tax rolls in 1975. No income tax will be paid by a single person ggarning $3,583, a married 7ouple with $5,323 annually, a family of four with $6,033, and a single pensioner with $5,547. .There is to be a grant to first- time home buyers to encourage an increase in home ownership. Anyone purchasing or building 'a home for the first time will be eligible for a $1,000 grant from the Province, plus an additional $250 in each of the two sue- .? ceeding years, for a total of $1,500. This program remains in effect until December 31st, 1975, only, and covers both new and used homes, applying regardless of the price of the home or the income of the urchaser. To qualify the home ust be the principal residence of the applicant, and title or possession must be taken during the eligibility period. However, this $1,500 cannot be used towards a down payment, because it is only paid after the deal is closed, and the second and third in- stalments of $250 each are only paid if ownership is retained. Retail Sales Tax is to be eliminated on all purchases of production machinery and equipment effective April. 8th, and this applies to orders for machinery and equipment placed on or after that date and before January lst. ,delivery must be taken on or before December 31st, 1977. The maximum small business tax credit will be doubled from $3,000 to $6,000 annually, and there are also changes in the succession duty and gift tax. Ontario will introduce measures to supplement where necessary the federal Agricultural Products Stabilization Act currently before the House of Commons, and owners of managed forests who are resident in Ontario will be eligible for a rebate of 50 percent of property taxes on forests. In connection with the Provincial Sales Tax, effective July 1st, 1975, vendors will be paid compensation for costs incurred in collecting and remitting sales tax. They may withhold 3 percent of tax collected up to a maximum of $500 in any fiscal year. I shall elaborate on these measures and others contained in the Budget in the coming weeks, and will report to you on the debates in the Legislature upon these measures and the estimates of the individual ministries Liberal Leader Robert -14.ixarei i nit sal reaatiof Waas-to charge the government with "fiscal irresponsibility" in bringing down another deficit budget. This government has "added a 44 billion net debt to the Province in the four years since Mr. Davis became premier". In this 1975-76 budget, government spending is in- reased to an estimated $10.2 billion from the $8.7 billion spent in the last fiscal year. The deficit, including non- bildgetary items, is estimated at $1.67 billion, compared with $1.03 billion expected for the fiscal year ending March 31st, 1975. Mr. Nixon asked, "How can we possibly stand the kind of Veal irresponsibility that this easurer is putting forward in a situation which is...in- flationary?" Many other Opposition Members described the budget cynical, irresponsible and a deliberate vote -catcher. Stephen Lewis, referring to the sales tax reduction being ef- fective only until the end of the year, said, "It is cynical in the extreme to redupe it Just for the *Y Jae* Ridd101, Huron 111PP period of an election." He said, "It's a terrible budget. This isn't an economic document. It's. a political document." School students anticipating post -secondary education will be pleased to know that .the Ministry of Colleges ' and Universities will make available to students in the 1975-76 academic year more financial assistance,' including two new student assistance The new programs ge the Ontario Student Loans Plan, which 18 intended to help n=y of the studints ineligible fog d..... from the, .*'ederal Gove ment's- Canada Students Loatk Plan, and the Qntarto Specit, Bursary Program,. which Will provide up to $500,000 to help the most needy part-time students.
