VAT Club: International Indirect Tax update - September 2015Alex Baulf

- EU case law update
- update on the Union Customs Code
- rate changes in Greece and Kosovo
- update on India GST implementation
- update on Egypt VAT implementation
- update on UAE VAT implementation
- the digital economy - update on legislation aimed at non-resident suppliers of digital and electronic services in Japan, and across EMEA, Asia-Pac and North America
- Skandia decision - update from EU VAT Expert Group.
Allot will be said about GDP as part of the election build in June 2018. The problem is major areas will not be discussed by Wynne as it would paint a picture that shows Wynne was poor steward of the Ontario Economy.
Economies are driven by many factors including capital investment and consumer spending. Government only role is to set policies. Wynne and McGuinty policies have led to implementation of carbon pricing, labor reforms, hikes to hydro rates, longer regulatory approval process for natural resources, killing of the east-west pipelines, etc.
Both McGuinty and Wynne continue to spend beyond their means in terms of their fiscal management cycle. The reality is businesses get scared when faced with more taxes and/or more regulations.
