NFU cals for GST tax revoilt The federai government's campaign to "whitewash" the negative effects cf the proposed goods end services tax on fermers had drawn the ire of the President of the National Farmers Union. Recent meetings sponsored by Ontario Federation cf Agriculture provided a forum for Revenue Canada officiais te seil the government's version cf how the GST wiil affect producers. But the NFU president Wayne Easter says people shouidn't be fooled by the government's public relations exerci se. "The GST wiil mean decreased farmn income, that's the bottom line," expiained Easter. TFarmn accounting costs wiii escalate qicly and dramaticaiiy once the tax is imposed, and over the long termn, many farm-reiated items which are tax-rebatable now could easiiy be changed. The GST is nothing Iess 'than a cemplete. machinery dealers, creating extra costs for farmers- who muîst pay tax on transportation costs when ordering parts. Other farm-reiated costs, such as transportation cf milk from- farm to dairy, wiii be subject te the GST, but farmers are eligible te receive a rebate on the tax. However, warned Easter, there is no guarantee such rebates will remein in place in the future. H1e pointed eut the federal fuql excise tax rebate was substantially lowered in the last budget. "And besides, under the rebate scheme, farmers will be carrying the finance costs between the time they pay the tax and the time they receive their rebate. It emounts to an interest - free boan te the government." In any event, farmners will see their initial cash outlay for al purchases of inputs and services increased under the GST scheme. said Easter. "The government has suggested prices for inputs will decline due te elimination of the existing manufacturers' tax, but that's, highiy uniikely. Keep in mmnd that bread prices in retail stores actually rose after domestic wheat prices te, farmers. were lQwered." The NFU president conciuded that farm organizations like the OFA shouldn't aiiow themseives te be- used as a sales vehicie for Revenue Canada. The NPU, he pointed eut, has done its ewn concrete analysis of what GST will mean te the farm cemmunity. "The overaîl eifect wili be irrepairable harm te, producers' rural communities," he stated. "Farmers must oppose this tax grab -in ne uncertain termis. A generai tex revoit against the GST is needed by farmhers in ai regions."
