creavik (CP) — The Canada health act

could end up making i money for the federal .
government from the hospital user fees and:

extra doctors’ charges that itis supposed to
stamp out, the Canadian: Labor Congress
sald Tuesday.  -

In a brief to the Commons health com-
mittee, the . two-million-member
organizatlon said the legislation is so badly
drafted there is ho guarantee it will achieve
its intended: goal if passed.

CLC vice-president Jean. Mercier and

congress researcher Robert Baldwin said"

‘the penalties the bill Proposes to-eradicate
user fees and extra billing are Inadequate,

if approved, the legislation would impose
a ‘dollar-for-dollar penalty on provinces
which allow. out of ‘pocket. charges by.
withholding one dollar for every. dollar

_ a charged to patients,
. Suggestion; .

While this appears good at first Blance, it
might not- be enough: to persuade the
provinces, the CLC said.-

loses-the same amount through reduced
federal payments, no penalty - ‘exists, the
brief argued. ,

Patlents continue to get charged and the
only real change is that Ottawa becomes a
net financial winner by . reducing its.
medicare obligations to.the provinces.

-“We do not think it is appropriate for the
federal- government to leave itself in a
position to gain financially from the
reduction in its cash contributions asa
result of extra-billing, user- fees or other
‘program violations," the brief said.
"Jn our view the financial: perialties for
extra’ billing and user fees should be

structured so that the provinces are net a

losers if these practices persist,
“The most satisfactory way to ac-

| complish this ebjective would be to reduce

federal cash contributions by more than $1
for every $1 collected through extra-billing.

“It would also be appropriate to have the
penalties escalate if the practices persist."

Better structure needed

MOOSE JAW, Sask, (CP) — The
minimum 20-per-cent income tax rate for

every American,suggested by “dear old | |
Ronnie Reagan” should be at least the goa] |

in Canada if there is to be an equitable tax

structure, NDP Leader Ed Broadbent said

Tuesday.
“The tax system should not he 30 rigged
that high-income earners and big cor-

porations don’t have to pay their share of :

what I call money to maintain: civilization

in Canada,” he told local’ Chamber | of :

Commerce representatives, .

Broadbent slammed the Liberals for:
“bad policy” based on faulty analysis of the
economy during the’ last. three’ federal
budgets. If the Liberals got a harsh review:
from Broadbent, - the Progressive. Con-
servatives fared worse. . .

The NDP. leader - suggested that. the
Tories had ‘‘no visible policy. at all — they
juat- have Brian Mulroney's general policy

-which promises even further cutbacks."”

With: the-. federal - election “ éxpected
; ‘sometime this year, perhaps in the fall,
- Broadbent spent. the afternoon going
‘through the traditional pre-election routine
of meeting people and-offering solutions to
. problems facing the economy.
CREATE JOBS: SF

At an informal gathering of the Chamber —

of Commerce, he’ presented his economic :
analysis of what's ailing . Canada ‘and
outlined proposals he said would help get

unemployed Canadians working and get the |

economy on the right track,

He sald the federal government should
rescind Individual income-tax increases
proposed by Finance Minister Marc:
Lalonde’s April 1982 budget which are to go
into effect this year and continue for two
more years. Ss

we 8 an economically foolish move to

raise everyone's taxes an average of $500,”
’ Broadbent said.

He explained the maney would be betler
in the hands of Canadians who would spend
it and create 4 demand for goods, which in

. turn would translate into more jobs.

He suggested eliminating ‘‘the mindless .
throwing away of money” by government
“on corporations which get across-the-board
tax reductions, Every tax break given a
corporation should depend on a reciprocal
action, such as undertaking research and
development programs, using ‘the ‘money °
for upgrading employees’ skills or buying
‘Canadian-made equipment to modernize

_ plants, he said.

EXCES6 CAPACITY *

Broadbent said business ‘people are not .
' Btupld enough to invest their lax con-
‘cessions on upgrading manufacturing

‘plants which now operate only at 60 to 70
per. cent efficiency, .

- “These businesses take the money and
run, to put it bluntly, and it's been

monumentally foolish to have given them .

$2 biillon. in tax concessions Jast year."
He urged. what he called Genuine: tax

‘reform ‘of the personal income tax struc.

ture to ensure fairness for all Canadians.
“fT find It morally outrageous that senior

cliizens and people on unemployment In-. -

surance get taxed while some people
earning $60,000. to $100,000 are not taxed al
all. ” :
Broadbent said eariler in Regina that the
NDP, a poor third in public opinion polls, is
in almost.the same position it held prior to

- the 1979 federal election.
_ “We had only 16 seats and people were *
saying ‘you guys are in trouble,’ “

Broadbent aaid. “I said then, as I say now,
things changes between a pre-election
period and an election.”
