Canada follows war budget with no new taxes
Canada plans a war budget for 1945 with no tax increases, eliminating compulsory personal savings and cutting duties on farm machinery. Finance Minister Assey announced a $3.5 billion borrowing requirement and a projected deficit of about $2.56 billion while stressing voluntary savings will offset some loss from the end of compulsory savings. The changes include immediate tariff cuts and removal of the 10 percent war exchange tax on farm implements, effective July and August respectively, with broader tax credits and benefits for dependents and related policy shifts to ease wartime production pressures.
