Manitoba pauses five percent tax on grain storage units
Manitoba Finance Minister Gurney Evans announced a cabinet approved suspension of the 5 percent sales tax on portable and prefabricated grain storage facilities from June 1 to December 31. Evans urged Ottawa to mirror the move and called for refunds to purchasers since June. He said the measure helps farmers amid weak markets and a likely good crop. The action applies to all portable or prefabricated granaries, including wooden or metal units. A refund process requires proof the facilities are for farm use.
