One section plans legislatioî; the other section enforces legisiation. On paper, this is a very sensible arrangement. The thinkers are Ieft alone to think while the enforcers are left alone to enforce. The only problemn is the lack of communication from thinkers to enforcers. So the enforcers frequently find thernselves dealing with regu- lations whose purposes they -do not appreciate. The consequences of this communications breakdown can be downright peculiar. The Lee Valley Tools Ltd. Àca se is an excellent example t% he sort ofUadministrative trading country, given haif a, Schance - at work. There bas, in fact, been only one t lny 1; snag in an otherwise perfect story: according to Revenue Canada, the Lee Valley stove S kit is not a wood stove. ~~-. 'FOR RENT' Off ice Space.

T.O. 332 MINISTRY 0F GOVERNPý MENT SERVICES ONTARIO Noôwyou orI would have [rouble finding any other use' for the Lee Valley kit except as, a stove. Irowever, you and .1 are not members of the civil service upper class. Be- cause the Lee Valley kit carne without the drum, Revenue Canada ruled that the kit does not qualify as a- wood steve. This interesting. decision was upheld - after appeals by Lee Valley - by then-Revenue Minister (now Senator) Joseph Guay. So what? you asIc, inno- ceritly. Dees it matter wheth- er Ottawa labels the kit a wood stove or a pogo stick? Indeed it does. Because of Revenue Canada's ruling,, Lee Valley has been fighting for its life. The regulation-mfaking side of the civil service, you see, decreed under the Ener- gy Conservation Equipmenit Exemption Regulations that wood stoves (assembled or in kit form) would be exempt- cd from the 12% (recently reduced to 9%) federal sales ta>c.

So Lee Valley bas been living with a 12% gov- ernment-imposed price dis- advantage compared to other wood stove manufacturers. There's a new Revenue Minister in town - Tony Abbott, who also happens to be the SmaII Business Minister and is sympathetic to little guys like Lee V'alley - and he's promised to resolve the mess. But the problern should not have corne up in the first place. Lack of communication' in the bureaucracy is one of the greatest sources of frustra- tion for the small business community.
