Tax, Training And Too Much Bureaucracy by Terry O'Shaughnessy As the country lurches through the. first 1 ,'stages-of the recession, the'faltering Canadian econbmy ;_needs small business more than ever. During the last recession recession in the early 1980s - the worst economic slump to hit the country in more than half a decade - small business business proved its mettle by recording recording the only positive job creation record of any sector. And now that small firms are again faced with picking up the slack left by the large corporate sector (which is currently laying off thousands thousands of employees), the needs and concerns of small business are of paramount importance for the economic recovery expected later next year. A recent survey conducted conducted by the Canadian Federation Federation of Independent Business Business addresses these concerns. Entitled "National "National Business Watch," the survey survey of 22,000 small and medium-sized medium-sized operations regularly explores the key problems facing the independent independent business community. The results of the most recent recent survey are proof that the stormy business climate created by worsening economic economic conditions is not being being seriously addressed by governments at any level. According to the survey, the number one concern of survey respondents is the high level of taxation, with 65 per cent citing the overall tax burden as a major obstacle obstacle to further expansion. The report concludes: "Firms have understood the need to control public sector deficits but have been frustrated frustrated by the sense that governments governments are not treating seriously the need to match tax increases with spending cutbacks." As in previous surveys, red tape overload took second second spot with 55 per cent of survey respondents stating that the current levels of pa- perburden imposed by all three layers of government are of major concern. "Governments "Governments have a persistent bias toward over-regulating the economy. In their zeal to survey, control and forbid specific business activities, governments often reach beyond beyond what is necessary with wide ranging or overly complex complex rules and regulations," the report says. And a shortage of qualified qualified labor continues to be a major concern for 40 per cent of survey respondents, In spite of the fact that more and more Canadians are looking for work, small business business owners still spend a great deal of time training employees to meet a broad range of job requirements, Reggie Willatts was out to break his record established established last year, of winning nearly a dozen turkeys at the Bowmanville Lions club's annual turkey roll. When this photo was taken Friday night at the Lions Centre, he was up to six and counting. Unfortunately, our photographer didn't stay to see how he finished the night. Several others were lucky winners of more than one of the 100 disposed of when their number came up on the big wheel under control of Ralph MacIntyre. MacIntyre. The study adds that 80 per cent of CFIB members conduct conduct employee training- most of it on an informal basis basis utilizing on-the-job sessions, sessions, private sector specialists specialists and equipment vendors. But unfortunately small firms are seldom given the credit they deserve for workers' workers' advancing skills. Dissatisfaction with provincial provincial workers' compensation compensation boards was of concern to 34 per cent of survey respondents respondents while the cost of municipal government was an issue for 31 per cent of those surveyed. Unavailability Unavailability of financing (19 cent) and overly compii and expensive labor laws (12 per cent) completed the list of small business concerns. As the overwhelming job creators, small businesses have made a vital contribution contribution to the Canadian economy economy and will undoubtedly play a leading role in it eventual rebound. Now more than ever governments at all levels must be more sensitive to the concerns of this sector. The recovery of our failing economy is counting counting on it, per plex m Make your move.
