Ottawa budget proposes reforms to family benefits and tax credits
Report from Ottawa outlines Bill C 70 to revise the Family Allowance Act, indexing benefits only after inflation passes three percent while preserving universality but shifting more support to low income families. The child tax credit rises to 454 in 1986 with incremental increases through 1988, and the child tax exemption drops to about 380. By end of 1989, families earning under 25 000 will receive maximum benefits, aiming for fairness in the child benefits system.
