Should the government provide tax incentives to private companies to keep jobs within the country?
@8DHDNNW4yrs4Y
No. And if the private company wants to leave, then government should offer funding to the employees to create a workers co-operative to replace the leaving business.
@8VVG3K43yrs3Y
Nationalise all private, for-profit entities.
@9DMC8LY7mos7MO
Yes, And only if at minimum 70% of the business is in Canada.
@9CGBPXC9mos9MO
No, however they can pursue those opportunities if expressly desired by the government or a private company.
@9C6LPSM10mos10MO
No, but modestly increase taxes and import tariffs on outsourcing businesses.
@96RFZZB1yr1Y
Only as a last resort to boost jobs in the country.
@93W5Y982yrs2Y
Provided there are job guarantees for a specific number of years
@939QXJ42yrs2Y
Yes, but only to those companies who provide good working conditions and pay taxes
@937LMWD2yrs2Y
no, Companies are just taking advantage of trade deals that the government brought in because they said it would make us all richer. We have less jobs upgrading raw materials and less goods are made in canada as a result. The capital investment has greatly been diminished in these areas and barriers to export/import would lead to investment in facilities of manufacturing.
@92JJNYM2yrs2Y
No. Let them go, Canada is a strong country with enough resources. We are too nice to other countries, it is time to take care of ourselves for a change.
@9262JRB2yrs2Y
Yes, but only in strategic industries
@9235Q2J2yrs2Y
Only in strategic industries
@8YZ4D732yrs2Y
no - however they should have a way of making sure that they are outsourcing to places with better wages and working conditions
@8X6HYW52yrs2Y
this question also sucks
@8WGJZ332yrs2Y
For small businesses or chains, but not for large corporations
@8WFRGBH2yrs2Y
All public utility and resources should be run and manage by government
@8VVPX8LNew Democratic3yrs3Y
No but ensure suitable rational for increased taxes and tariffs.
No, companies shouldn't require a donation they should favor non-immigrant people regardless.
@8VLQ88S3yrs3Y
There shouldn’t be private companies.
@8V6FCJJConservative3yrs3Y
Yes, but claw back if it is no longer necessary.
@9FN6RFDNew Democratic6mos6MO
Provide other means than tax incentives to keep businesses in Canada
@9DW7GRS7mos7MO
@95J9PCR2yrs2Y
Yes, but only for smaller businesses and corporations
@94VP9NS2yrs2Y
Yes, but in a bond that is void if they pull out
@8SLS73S3yrs3Y
No, but the government should block companies from leaving the country
@8PZYHPK3yrs3Y
Only if the company is reinvesting in our country and citizens., rather than taking natural resources that cannot be replaced and leaving when they have been stripped.
Deleted3yrs3Y
No, the government should lock companies into the country by law
@8TXVXML3yrs3Y
Restructure Revenue Sourcing, we need to eliminate all taxes on Individuals. Keep tariffs on foreign goods, and a royalty to sales of Goods, Services, Franchise Fees, and Stock Sales by non-Sole Owned Companies. Even look at crowd funding on a voluntary level.`
@8TWZ76T3yrs3Y
Only for industries of strategic importance or for investments of strategic importance to Canada.
@8T8PGV93yrs3Y
in a true free market most businesses would be small, allowing the rich to fet richer would only cause more monopoly, we should prioritise small business and their freedom. and with larger businesses allowing workers to make their own descisions would be better
@8SDPH6Y3yrs3Y
No, just force the corporations to stay in the country
@8SJCHHW3yrs3Y
Yes with time line guarantees. Tax incentives should start small and increase annually
@8SF7HN33yrs3Y
No, more of a focus should be given to smaller and local businesses rather than multinational conglomerates or corporations
@8RWBJNQ3yrs3Y
They shouldnt mess arround in the economy, but they can offer extra stuff to companies as a whole to exist in canada. A industry wide tax incentive, not a company specific one.
@8RJ5L743yrs3Y
Yes, but we should still increase taxes and tariffs on all businesses regardless of origin to ensure they Buy Canadian Hire Canadian.
@8R78W5R3yrs3Y
Yes, but only incentives that correlate directly to number of quality jobs
@8TVYS423yrs3Y
No, instead penalize companies offshoring labour through taxes on labour conditions.
@8FMV7LVConservative3yrs3Y
Doesn't really matter to me
@8RK5FXD3yrs3Y
no, but the government should block companies from leaving the country
it doesn’t matter to me
@93ZMD7M2yrs2Y
No, tax should be reformed to benefit all companies instead of individuals
@924MYCK2yrs2Y
Yes, but smaller businesses should receive higher tax breaks than large ones, depending on the income of the individual company and the amount of workers within it. Also, add fines to companies that don't pass those savings down to their employees' wages.
@8ZSR5NL2yrs2Y
Yes, but micro, small and medium-sized businesses should receive higher tax breaks than large ones, depending on the income of the individual company and the amount of workers within it. Also, add fines to companies that don't pass those savings down to their employees' wages.
@9334YP32yrs2Y
Taxation is theft and should be abolished for all American corporations that do not use foreign labor nor have offices abroad.
@TheRamFlores2yrs2Y
Yes, an initial 5 year tax break and then gradually enter into regular taxation without a retroactive collection, allowing businesses the time to grow and become profitable.
@8ZSR5NL2yrs2Y
Yes, but negotiate on each circumstance and micro, small and medium-sized businesses should receive a higher tax break than large ones, depending on the income of the individual company and the amount of workers within it. Also, add fines to companies that don't pass those savings down to their employees' wages.
@923Z93G2yrs2Y
No, nationalise all multinational corporate holdings in Canada
@7PTCG382yrs2Y
No, because once this occurs, it will encourage more private companies to make threats of job losses in order to obtain tax breaks. Drastically increase taxes and import tariffs on job outsourcing businesses
