Under the agreements, Mr. Ils- ley said tonight, the provinces will undertake not to tax persona.‘ or corporation incomes earned after Dec. 31, 1940 or to collect any other corporation taxes, which became due and payable after Sept. i, 19- Tlie agreements will continue 1n force until one year after the end of the war when the Dominion a- grees to reduce its tax rates so as to permit the provinces to re- enter ilie tax fields which they are being asked to vacate temporarily. All the agreements are in sub- stantially the samc form with s. number of minor variations to meet special situations in some provinces. The annual payments to British Columbia. Alberta, Manitoba, On- tario, and Quebec. wlll be based upon the revenues which the pro- vlnces and their municipalities ac- tunlly obtained from the personal income tnx and corporation tax fields during the fiscal years which ended nearest to Dec. 31, i940. Take “Debt Option” Saskatchewan, New Brunswick, Nova Scotin and Prince Edward Is- land will tllke time “debt option." Their annual payments will be based on the actual net cost of servicing the provincial debt in the flscnl year ending nearest to Dec. 31, 1940, less the revenues obtained from svccesslon duties in that year. Fiscal need subsidies will be paid to Saskatchewan. Mliliil-Obfl. New Brunswick and Prince Edward Is- land. "with the subsidies proposed. these provinces should be able to ‘rot along without further assistance from the Dominion,” Mr. Ilslcy said. A payment will also be mode to Nova Scotia equivalent to the lou “men that. province would other- wise incur es s result of the tem- porary suspension of the annual subsidy paid to it upon the recom- menddtlohs of the Dliliefln 811d White commissions. _ This payment to Nova Scoeia, plus the fiscal need subsidies to Saskatchewan, Manitoba. New Brunswick and Prince Edward Is- land will amount to 83232313947 per annum. This compares with a to- m of $5,415,000.00 previously paid to certain provinces as special 8111111111 grants which have been discontin- ued beginning with the fiscal year 1941-42.
