Replace Provincial Income Taxes
Replace provincial income taxes with a business tax on gross receipts and a provincial sales tax included in the sales price.
Use employee payroll credit to stimulate creation of value-added, sustainable and diversified local jobs.
As a priority issue after the May 12, 2009 election, a Reform government will determine the rates to be set on January 1, 2010 for business and sales taxes to replace provincial income tax.
Reform will use business tax and sales tax revenues to finance the distribution of royalty and employee payroll credits thereby improving the cash flow of individual citizens, families, households and the engine of good job creation – the small to medium sized enterprise.
Reform will help all MLAs to track cash flowing through public-private partnerships in their ridings to ensure that the public interest is paramount in projects such as the 2010 Olympic security, Olympic Village, RAV line and the Abbotsford Hospital.
Reform recognizes that every provincial MLA has the duty and every taxpayer has the right to monitor waste and prevent extortionate or fraudulent conversion of public property, including tax and non-tax revenues, collected from their constituencies.
Reform BC recognizes that many countries are looking at or already have a flat tax system. Most U.S. States have either a state income tax with no state sales tax or a state sales tax with no state income tax. Most citizens agree that their societies are not sustainable and could not survive without some kind of taxation.
A Reform government will encourage the federal government to move to a flat tax.
A Reform government will pay independent Field Technical Accountants to help all BC legislators – independent of party affiliation – to better serve their constituents by making use of public data exchanges to track the impact of tax and non-tax revenue collection on the cash flow of citizens, households and small to medium sized enterprises.
A Reform government will arrange for municipalities to appoint then elect, regional district trustees as custodians of these public-data exchanges for emergency communications, climate change science, property protection and the management of public-private projects and watersheds.
A Reform government will equip all orders of government in the province with the computer tools needed for independent-benchmark asset tracking ("I-BAT").
Equipped with these computer-based asset tracking tools, BC’s OnLine Legislators will be better equipped to investigate complaints concerning private investments in the public equity of such entities as the bcIMC, BC Rail, WorkSafeBC, BC OnLine (land-title personal property registries), Hydro and Medical Services Plan.
BC OnLine legislators will investigate complaints against public services in respect of the violations of personal privacy, property assessment, legal title, rural property taxation and the environmental condition of land, the filing of tax information on citizens, households and local businesses, the administration of corporate and, personal property, wills, encumbrances and liens, gas and electrical permits and inspection requests.
BC OnLine legislators will investigate complaints against Home Replacement Value Services or the B.C. Assessment Authority in determining home replacement and rating values and the Land Titles Activity Advisory Service when a pending document is noted against a piece of property at the Land Titles Office.
BC OnLine legislators will investigate complaints against e-conveyancing title search, generation and exchange of all related documents at the Land Titles Office.
BC OnLine legislators will track simulations of project and regional stocks and flows of public assets through industries such as Agriculture, Climate Change Science, Education, E-government and Emergency Communications, Energy, Film, Fisheries, Food, Forestry, Health, Mining, Oil & Gas, Tourism, Transport and Watershed Management.
BC OnLine legislators will monitor the stocks and flows of public equity and investigate complaints in respect of inequitable impact of laws, programs or activities by government public or para-public servants and tax or non-tax collection agencies.
