Name: Matthieu Arteau on Dec 3, 2012Comments: It seems that every time the Quebec government needs to make a quick cash grab they focus on the restaurant and bar industry. Unfortunately it is one of the most volatile industries in quebec, close to 50% of restaurants close within two years of opening. We are also one of the biggest employers in Quebec and the government has neglected to consider the repercussions of their decisions. Restaurants will close and jobs will be lost, whether it be full time employees who have chosen hospitality as a career or part-time employees who are able to support their educations, their art and their passions with the flexible schedules that restaurants allow. In 2001 the government began taxing tips in Quebec and remains the only province to do so although tipping remains optional to diners. In 2010, the liberal government implemented the infamous MEV system, (the black box that records all sales). Again, this is restricted exclusively to the restaurant industry, essentially labeling us all as tax cheats and to add insult to injury we were forced to purchase the box from the government at 2000$ a piece. (one for every cash register in the restaurant). There is talk of adding water meters to restaurants, yes, again just restaurants and no other industry, and charging us for our consumption of fresh water. The question is why does the government continue to pick on one particular industry? The answer is most probably because we are disorganized, apathetic and our lobby groups and organisations seem to be impotent and uninterested. Tomorrow, is an opportunity for us as an industry to stand up for ourselves and put forth a united front. Maybe we won't be able to affect change on the current legislation but hopefully we will at least make the Quebec government think twice before attacking us again,Flag
