OTA urges government to continue funding trucking-friendly programs
www.chinatrucks.com: The Ontario Trucking Association is calling for the government to stay the course with funding on several initiatives ahead of next year's budget.
In a pre-budget submission to the Ontario Standing Committee on Finance, OTA vice-president Stephen Laskowski stressed the government should not waver in its commitment to certain programs supported by the trucking industry.
"With our own members showing a higher degree of uncertainty in the markets, we fully understand provincial revenues will remain constrained and items for inclusion in the upcoming budget will be impacted," Laskowski said. "What OTA is primarily asking for in this budget is that the government maintains its past commitments to ensure stability for our sector."
Among the initiatives the OTA urged the government to hold steady on is the HST, which Laskowski called "the single most important tax policy measure introduced by the legislature in recent memory," and, "undoubtedly a much fairer system" for businesses.
