2--THE BRUSSELS POST, APRIL 16, 1975
By Murray Gaunt, M.P.P.
The big news this week in the
Legislature was the budget ,
speech and the presentation of
the 1975 Budget by Provincial
Treasurer Darcy IVIcKeough.
While the oppositon claimed it
was a cynical attempt to buy votes
in an election year the budget had
something for 'everyone.
Effective midnight April 7th
the retail sales tax has been
reduced from seven to five per
'cent. On December 31st it
automatically returns to seven per
cent.
Buyers of new or used homes
can receive a grant of $1,500.
providing it is their first home.
This program ends at the end of
the year. Under the plan anyone
purchasing a first home will
receive a $1,000 grant this year
and $250 in each of the two
succeeding years.
To encourage investment the
seven per cent sales tax on
production machinery and
equipment has been removed on
items ordered between now and
the end of 1976.
Free drugs will be extended to
all those over 65 effective August
1st.
An additional 450,000 low
income people will be removed
from the, income tax rolls.
Small businesses will be com-
pensated for collection of retail
sales tax to a maximum of $500.
per year, starting July 1st.
Succession duty and gift tax
exemptions will be improved. To
insure the growth of family farms
and businesses in Ontario the
basic succession duty allowance a.
will be raised from. $150,000 to
$250,000 and will become a
deduction for all estates.
In addition the basic exemption
for gift tax will be raised from
$2,000 per recipient. to $5,000.
The once-in-a-lifetime special
exemption for farmers under the
gift tax act will be raised from
$50,000 to $75,000.
The Province has pledged to
supplement the Federal- Agricul-
tural Products Stabilization Act
by $20 million for first year
funding to provide "cost of
production guarantee".
Provincial payments to munici-
palitieis will be increased by 16.3
per cent.
A total of $526 million will be
spent on housing action with $87
million allocated for senior citizen
and low income housing.
Government budgetary spend-
ing will rise by 1.4 billion or 16.8
per cent in 1975-76 to $10.19
billion, with a record total cash
deficit of $1.6 billion. This is over
50 per cent higher than last years
deficit and brings the' total net
y debt of the Province to
$5,284,000,000. This represents
I I $565 for every man, woman and
)1 child in the Province.
