An Act To Provide The Mi'Kmaq Nation With Sales Tax Revenue For Sales Occurring On Mi'Kmaq Nation Territory

This bill amends a previous proposal to provide sales tax revenue to the Mi'kmaq Nation for transactions occurring on their territory. The primary change shifts the start date for this revenue collection from January 1, 2024, to January 1, 2025. Additionally, the amendment removes the budget allocation for the fiscal year 2023-24, ensuring the fund only receives $500 for the 2024-25 fiscal year. These adjustments update the timeline and funding levels for the initiative without altering the core mechanism of collecting sales tax on Mi'kmaq Nation land.
