Important message to CANS members – Proposed Changes to Canada’s Tax Code

September 22, 2017/in front, news/by CANS

Earlier this week we sent CANS members an email with information about the proposed changes to Canada’s Tax Code. You can review that email here.

CANS, along with 34 local businesses and associations across the province, have joined forces and formed the Nova Scotia Coalition for Small Business Tax Fairness. The employer coalition, representing tens of thousands of independent businesses, professionals and taxpayers across a wide range of sectors and regions of Nova Scotia, are signatories on a letter demanding Premier Stephen McNeil oppose the tax changes being proposed by the federal Minister of Finance.

CANS has also sent letters to our local MP’s and MLA’s, urging them to oppose the tax changes being proposed by the federal Minister of Finance.
