PUC urged to protest
OST
The Seaforth Public Utilities Commission
has recently reeieved correspondence from
the "Municipal Electric Association, urging
the Commission to protest the proposed
Federal government's Goods and Sevices
'Fax.
Under the GST, consumers could "see
their 'heat and eledtrtcity costs jump by 15
per cent. Ontario Hydro officials are
predicting an average rate increase of 6
per cent over the next three years and
this, combined with the Goods and Services
Tax, could see the average electrical bill
climb by as much as an extra 65240 per
month in 1991.
The Municipal Electric Association has
begun active lobbying to have electricity
classified as a vital service and be given
a "0" rating in the produetion/distribution
chain, This would make electricity a tax-
exempt service. At present, municipal
water supplies are classified as tax ex-
empt, although gas is not.
A limited number of Canadian goods and
services, such as groceries and prescrip-
tion drags, will be exempt Irvin the 'pro-
posed 9% tax hike. Health >and '- lerttal carr
and education `services 'will also `be*spared.
Membership lees -for nonainti itrobganiza-
tions may or not be classified as' taxable,
but the choice will be tapp to the individual
organization. If the membership is taxable,
registered members will be eligible to
elatm a tax credit on Their fees.
If elect ety remains hi The taxable supp-
ly bracket, it will be taxed en the elate the
supplier either issues or dates the invoice.
Any other goods and services continuous-
ly provided via pipelines, wires etc. will be
taxed in this manner.
In the meantime, the 'MEA is seeking to
appear before the house of Commons Stan-
ding Committee on Finance to voice their
disapprovalof the tax

tricity The Committee 'happlication been holding:
