Nipissing MPP Monique Smith issued a media release Tuesday touting the benefits the Ontario Tax Plan for More Jobs and Growth Act, which includes the harmonized sales tax legislation.
If passed, the act will increase business investment, create new jobs and raise incomes for Ontarians, the release said.
The release said along with the proposed harmonized sales tax, 93% of taxpayers will pay less personal income tax, while 90,000 low-income Ontarians will no longer pay provincial personal income tax.
The province is also proposing to almost double the property tax and sales tax credits.
Proposed tax cuts for business would enhance the benefits of the proposed HST by attracting more investment into Ontario, said the release.
The personal income and corporate tax reforms include a 16.5% tax cut on the first $37,106 of taxable income — which would make Ontario’s the lowest personal income tax rate of any province in Canada; an average personal income tax cut of 10% for Ontario families and individuals earning up to $80,000.
The act also includes an 18% tax cut for small businesses and a 17% tax cut for manufacturers.
