Budget changes lift sales tax and add tax credits for poor
Canadians face a one percentage point rise in the federal sales tax effective April 1 1986 offset by a refundable sales tax credit of 50 per adult and 25 per child for families under 15000 annual income. A 3 per cent surtax on the basic federal tax begins July 1 1986 with partial effect in 1986 and full in 1987.
