So I&rsquo;m perplexed. They will have to explain to me why they are doing that,\u00a0\u00bb said Coderre.<\/p>\n<p>The government aims to raise revenues by $495 million by 2016-17 by reducing the 20 percent tax credit popular with Montreal&rsquo;s movie and video game industry and cancelling some commitments made by the previous government.<\/p>\n<p>The cut will reduce by 21 percent the financial aid given to businesses by 2016-17, bringing the aid to $1.9 billion, approximately the same level as in 2006-07.<\/p>\n<p>\u00ab\u00a0There are over 160 aid programs. When they give $4 billion to businesses, then they let them sink or swim in the most difficult tax environment in the country,\u00a0\u00bb said Martine H\u00e9bert of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business.<\/p>\n<p><b><\/b><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/How-provincial-budget-will-affect-Montreal-_-CTV-Montreal-News.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PDF<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CTV News &#8211; June 5, 2014<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":6469,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[281],"tags":[161,189,159,295,246],"class_list":["post-5624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dans-les-medias","tag-droit-au-logement","tag-logement-social","tag-lutte-a-la-pauvrete","tag-nouveaux-logements-sociaux","tag-subventions-au-logement-social"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-06-11 04:02:19","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5624"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5624\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16890,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5624\/revisions\/16890"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6469"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5624"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/genese.qc.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
