The NDP Government has struck a panel to find ways to replace the Medical Services Premium tax, which the government has promised to eliminate by 2021.
ICBA has made a submission to that panel, calling for “a combined approach which would trim existing government programs and dedicate completely new anticipated revenue streams (e.g. government ‘mark-up’ and taxation revenue from cannabis) to off-set MSP premium reductions.”

Great submission, it looks like a more thoughtful response than the lack of thought that the government put in their decision.
