"The point is that this means a tax 37% per cent on the Canadiens‘ inâ€" take,""* Gorman said. "We already have a 12% per cent Provincial amuseâ€" ment tax anad a 5 per cent tax from the Montreal Athletic Commission." He said the delegation had been given a ‘"clear explanation‘‘ why the tax had been impposed, but termed it a "shortâ€"sighted" policy. Gorman, representing the Canadian Arena Company, said ha was afraid the tax might force Montreal Canaâ€" diens of the National Hockey League out of business. "This tax is going to kill hockey," Smythe said. «"Previously the Governâ€" ment was getting a share of the hockey proceeds, but now it. will be a case of diminishing returns." Gorman and Smythe both expressed opinion that the new levy might have a crippling effect on professional hocâ€" key in Canada.
