The Liberals have released their 2016 federal budget. Unfortunately, it offers very little for Canada’s small businesses except higher taxes. For instance, they’re scrapping their promise to stay on schedule to reduce the small business tax rate to 9%. They’re also cancelling the hiring credit for small business and increasing payroll costs. Small businesses are essential to Canada’s economy. But instead of helping job creators, the Liberals are raising their taxes. Conservatives have a strong record of keeping business taxes low. We’ll continue to push the Liberals to follow our lead and help small businesses in Canada.
