McCoy 4] Ontario Treasurer Charles MacNaughton unveiled a bal- anced budget and a white paper on tax reform to the Ontario people during a pre- cedent-setting TV performance in the Legislature last week. His "1969 Budget, first to be televised in Ontario's history, combined '"'drastic curtailment" of expenditures and a series of corporation and sales tax changes to achieve an estimated surplus of $2 million for 1969-70. This "self-financing prog- ram; the Treasurer explained, sets the" stage for long-run reform: of provincial-munici- pal taxation which he out- lined in an, accompanying budget paper. The joint pres- entation was labelled Ontario's Fiscal Framework ' for. the Future", : Corporations and : mining companies will provide almost 60% of the additional $181 million in revenue from tax changes this year. Most of the remainder will come from: * increased levies on alcoh- olic beverages and cigar- ettes; . * extension of the 5% retail sales tax to hotel and motel room rates and to rentals of motion picture films and video tapes; * removal of refunds on gas- oline purchases for boats and snowmobiles. Ontario will require a speed- up in corporation tax pay- ments to bring its payment schedule more closely in line with the federal government's new schedule. Corporation capital tax will increase from 1/20th to 1/10th of 1. per cent, with a minimum of $50, but the place of business tax will be abolished. ° Corporations will also cont- ribute the majority of revenue anticipated from the applic- ation of retail sales tax to production machinery now exempt. All equipment, except that used in farm production, will be subject to the present 5% rate. sibility by January 1, 1970. PORT PERRY STAR -- Thursday, March 13.1969 -- 11 Ontario Treasurer Presents Budget income tax to replace the present provincial income tax collected by Ottawa. The 'separate system will be launched within two years, unless the federal government offers more room in this joint-tax field. As suggested earlier, the Ontario system may incorp- orate credits against municipal property leviesand other taxes to help the low-income tax- payer. It can provide alter- natives to the present basic shelter exemption program and existing income maint- enance schemes. The white paper says the new system will 'be designed to produce increased revenues, shift the tax. burden to those with higher incomes and relieve pressures on municipal taxes. The reform plan envisages a capital gains tax similar to that in the United States but it rejects a provincial gift tax providing the federal govern- ment shares the returns from its gift tax. The Government also plans to turn over collection of corporation taxes to the fed- eral government, withdraw from the succession duty field for a 75% share of the federal estates tax, and permit munic- ipal taxation of mining operat- ions. Fp To relieve the municipal tax burden, the Government will raise the average level of education grants from 45% to 60% over a three-year period. beginning in 1970-71, increase other grants to mun- icipalities and pay property taxes on provincial buildings. Ontario will reform the municipal tax base by under- taking reassessment of all properties at current value in a province:wide effort to eliminate present "inconsist- encies and inequalities". The Province will start taking over the assessment function from municipalities on July 1 this year and assume full respon- Ontario also intends to remove the present differential assessments for business tax but it won't redistribute the municipal burden among prop- erty classes, as advocated by the Smith and Select Com- mittees, uiitil the assessment base has been overhauled. Finally, under its reform package, Ontario will press on with regional government, consolidation of local munic- ipalities and decentralization of provincial programs. For the coming fiscal year, Treasurer MacNaughton achie- ved his balanced budget by holding expenditures below the $3 billion target he had set out earlier this year in launching an austerity program for the provincial government. He cut the growth in expen- ditures to 7.5%, considerably less' than the federal govern- ment's slightly less than the antici- pated increase in gross prov- incial product for 1969. This year's rate of + expenditure growth will be less than one- third the average of the past three years. record of 9.6% and Total expenditures will be $2,996 million, compared with last year's $2,787 million, for an increase of $209 million. - Revenue is expected to total $2,998 million, a gain of $478 million over last year's $2,520 ° million. Education programs will get the biggest protion of the increase, raise. their total to $1,276 million. Health and services will drop by $12 mil- lion but aid to local authorities ather than school board grants will rise by $25 million. $149 million, to social The increase in these prior- ity areas will be 8.2%, comp- ared with a growth rate of 5.8% for non-priority areas. As announced earlier in the Throne Speech, the Gover- nment will undertake no new programs during the coming year. In addition, it has laun- ched a comprehensive review of management structure and operations -to streamline its administration. These changes affecting corporations, plus an $8 mil- lion increase 'in the mining] \% tax, will raise $106 million of the additional revenues expected from tax changes. A| § large portion of these new taxes can be written off against corporation income tax. liquor and bottled beer will -be-increased from 6% to-10% on April 1 to establish a differential tax rate which will form part of the reform tax package for the future. This will apply to retail sales and| licensed] "## 'consumption in 'Premises. The exemption from retail sales tax on prepared Hwy will be raised from $1.50 to $2.60 but the new 10% rate will apply over $2.60.

It's bicycle time again. Last year in Ontario, 40 children under 16 years old 'were killed while riding bicycles {compared with 17 the year before) and another 1,470 - were injured in accidents serious enough to be reported to the police. The Ontario Department of Trans port advises motorists.to keep a sharp lookout for young- sters zooming out of driveways and for inexperienced cyclists wobbling shakinly along. Parents are advised to But his reform package make sure their youngsters known and obey the ttaffic rules for safe cycling and to check the mechanical fitness of the bikes their children ride.
