No changes to capital gains
The business community is sure to be relieved there are no tax increases in the budget, including on capital gains. The tax would have applied to the earnings from investments such as stocks or real estate, potentially costing businesspeople or entrepreneurs millions of dollars. But tobacco and alcohol are in the crosshairs: The budget proposes to adjust tobacco excise duty rates to bring in $55-million next year alone, and to increase excise duty rates on alcohol by 2 per cent, for revenue of up to $160-million by 2021-22.
