Axed Taxes, good for Business Groups
In Newfoundland and Labrador, they have decided to axe the 15% tax the government levied on insurance providers that comes as a welcome relief to businesses and insurance firms alike. The move was praised and allows businesses to pay lower premiums for their businesses to get the insurance they need and at the same time allow insurance firms to earn a bit more with their trimmed down insurance packages. The tax reduction or elimination would be retroactive beginning Jan 1 this year meaning discounts and rebates would surely be a possibility. This is welcome news to all businesses and owners for they can breathe a sigh of relief with less money out of their pockets and ample protection for their businesses.
