Tax concessions urged to lure people to the North
Member of Parliament Cecil Smith urged the federal government to offer an 8 to 10 percent tax concession for all workers in Northern Manitoba and northern Canada. He argued the higher cost of living warrants relief and that incentives would attract new residents and help job seekers move to northern areas, in response to Bill C-49 on income tax.
