What they're lobbying on (9)Hide details
Amend the Income Tax Act to classify small, family-run campgrounds with fewer than five full-time year-round employees as active businesses, making them eligible for the Small Business Deduction
Tariff Remission and tariff consultation. The Canadian RV industry is heavily reliant on U.S. imports, with approximately 95% of
RVs sold in Canada originating from various U.S. states. There is no viable short-term replacement and Canadian dealerships will face extreme hardships if inventory is placed on the retaliatory tariff list.
Tariff measures that are imposed on US goods should be focused on goods and services already produced in Canada and that can be adequately supplied to consumers, thus giving a boost to those businesses. Recreational Vehicles are not one of those products. There are not enough Canadian RV manufacturers to fall back on to supply the market and retaliatory tariffs will have a catastrophic effect on Canadian RV businesses.
Amending the Excise Tax Act (ETA) - Amend the ETA to address the inequitable and inappropriate application of GST/HST on cross-border transactions involving agreements made under subsection 178.8(3) and (4). GST/HST under these provisions should be payable and collectible based on the province to which the goods are destined, not based on the province of the port of entry when the goods are imported into Canada.
Make this correction to the legislation and section 178.8 effective for all transactions occurring on/after July 1, 2010 – the date the Province of Ontario harmonized its provincial sales tax with the federal GST/HST system.
Electrical Infrastructure Improvements - Make a public and significant commitment to the electrification of campgrounds across Canada. Better access to electricity for RVs is an important driver of tourism and will contribute immediately to the transition towards electric recreation vehicles and zero-emissions campgrounds.
The Government of Canada should create an Apprenticeship Travel Grant. Make the Labour Mobility Deduction for Tradespeople available for those that are temporarily relocating
to pursue their apprenticeship training and Red Seal certification.
