Buy now, pay later By Terry Q'Shaughnessy Success 1'u1 business people know when ta cd ttheir losses. And, ta+cng a look at recent polil results whiýh show that more than 70 per cent o the public opposes the 7 per cent Goods and Services Tax, it would seepi that mast Canadians would like the federal government ta do the sage by calling a hait ta the controvers ai GST. Unlike a successfui business, however, i seems the government is determineq ta ignore the obviaus and plough ah ad with the GST. A case in point iý the recentiy announced $14.2-milltin "goods and services working graup" that Finance Minister Michael Wilson hopes will seil the seriously flawed tax. The so-called "working gra.up" wilI be supported by a $7.7-miliion, two-year operating budget, Elind. will spearhead a massive. self-styied "public information campaign" ta "heip" Canadians understand and accept the GST. This campaign wiii have at its disposai an enorrnous $4.5-miiiion advertising budget ta run through' by the end of next month (the fiscal year for the1 govern- ment ends on March 3lst). A further $2-million is slated ta be spent on additional "public information" for the gavernnrrknt's 1990-91 fisçai year. But this initiative is oniy the latest indication from the government that it is removing itself from dialogue with the public. Earlier in the year, ail face-to-face pre-budget consul ta- tions for 1990 were cancelied due ta 'time canstraints' caused by the GST. The government then arinounced that, contrary ta past practice where budget details were available as soon as the budget was brought down, the distribution of budget documents was going té be restrictIed in the regians until the day after budget day (Feb. 20, 1990). And recently in the House of Commons, a visibly rattled and defensive Wilson first slammed John Bulloch, president of the Canadian Federation of Indepenident Business, for his vehemenî apposition ta the. tax and then later admitted that the CFIB is providing valuable informa- tion on smali business concernis with the GST Bullach says that Wilson's public pasturing is just one symptam-of a gavernment under siege. ."It is obviaus that the federal government cannat, and will nat, take any criticism," says Bullach. "They've cancelled the usuai pre- budget consultations with business_ groups. They've restricted distribu- tion of the budget'papers. And they think an advertising campaign will solve the probiemn of the GST. But the» Canadian public already knaws that the GST combined with nine provin- cial retail sales tax regîmes wiil pro- vide the worst sales tax system in the world. An advertising campaign that will insuit aur intelligence as weli ab waste aur money is ciearly 'not acceptable. " The GSI 'public information' campaign is nathing mare than a- siick exercise in public persuasion. And it probably wan't work. The fact of the matter is, Canadians know that if they buy the GSI now, they'li CF/B Feafure Service -a r-., YOUR AD, A4ADE ORDER Get your newspaper ad- veîtising done effective- iy and -inexpensively!
