The district council will be poorer
without the presence of Craig and

their successors to fill.

Q: I'm thinking of buying a new car in 1991.
How will the proposed GST affect prices?

A: The outgoing Federal Sales Tax (FST) is
now part of the price of new cars. So, while
they will be fully taxed at 7% in 1991,
the expected effect of replacing the FST
with the GST on the average $22,000

mid-size car is a reduction of around $850.

Q: My son has figured out it will cost $500 in
lumber to build a dock at our cottage if he
bought it now. How much will that lumber
cost with the proposed GST?

A: You can expect to pay about $512 for
that same amount of lumber for personal
use based solely on the changeover from

the FST to the GST.

Q: I know the proposed GST won't apply to city
bus fares but I take the commuter train to work.
Will have to pay GST?

A: No. Daily commuter trains are considered
a municipal transit service, so fares are
exempt from GST.

GST will affect prices, Call us toll-free Monday
