It expressed out- right opposltion to complete sur- render to the Dominion Govern- ment of Provincial powers to tax personal and corporation income and estates in return for fixed grants-ln-aid based on population. Of tour Provinces which have made formal counter proposals to those put for- ward by the Federal Govern- ment at the dominion-provin- cial conference last August, Ontario is the only one which has stated definitely that it wants a share in the in - come and corporation tax fields and that it wants ex- clusive rights on succession duties and other taxes within its boundaries. British Columbia, Alberta and Manitoba in their counter- proposais have indicated 1|. Willingness to surrender cer- tain taxation rights, providing some conditions were met by the Federal Government. Opposition to the Dominion Government proposals for a new financial agreement with the prov- inces and Ontario's counter-propo- sals are contained in a l2.000-word submission prepared for the Dom- inion-Provincial conference and made public by Premier George Drew. Copies have been alrmnlied to Prime Minister Mackenzie King and the nine provincial premiers. Tax Share Demanded The submission demands for the provinces a share in personal in- come and corporation taxes and urges the Dominion to vacate en- tirely such tax fields as succession duties, gasoline, amusement, race track pari-mutuels, security trans- fers and electricity. It asks effect- ive recognition of (provincial pri- ority in mining an logging tax- ation. “The almost inevitable result" of acceptance of the Dominica's proposals "would be the ultimate abandonment of the federal terms in favor of a unitary system of government in Canada.“ It was axiomatic that the power to tax is the powcr to govern "and if the provincial governments, and in turn the provincial legislatures were to abandon their most im- portant sources of direct taxation in return for an annual payment on a fixed basis, they would place themselves in a legislative strait- jacket from which they could only escape by abandoning still further powers in return for added pay- ments at some future date.’ The submission urges the perm- anent establishment _of _a domin- ion-provincial co-ordtnutlnz com- mittee made up of the llflme ml"- isters of the 10 B0\'@1'nm<rn_ts_ 0!‘ their appointees and a dominion- provincial economic hoard of tech- 11; proposes establishment of a national adjustment fund.

Ontario could not accept the proposition that a concen- tration of financial and admin- istrative power provides a satis- factory solution to Canadian economic and social problems. 2. Provincial fiscal autonomy can nly be preserved by each Prov] cial Government having power to impose its own taxes. . Each Province should be left in a position to increase its tax revenue by use of flexible and productive revenue sources, without recourse to appeals to the Dominion Government. 4. There should be alternat- ive sources of revenue available to the Provinces should alcoholic beverage profits and gasoline tax revenue decline. 5 Financial stringency under the Dominion proposals would exert pressure on the Provinces to resort more extensively to consumer taxes which have been genemlly regarded as nuisance (MCHDOGQPIQIOOL?)
