More than 40 Canadian energy income trusts have formed a coalition to fight a move by the Canadian government to tax income trusts.
The trusts, whose combined market value has dived by as much as 20% after Finance Minister Jim Flaherty proposed taxing the investment vehicles, said that the proposed changes have already hurt their ability to buy and drill oil fields that major oil companies have deemed too small.
They aim to begin meetings with government officials early this week in hopes of winning back for unitholders some of the C$35 billion (US$31 billion) lopped from their net worth, reported Reuters.
Flaherty told reporters in Toronto that he was happy to listen to the trusts but saw no reason to waver from his decision.
Arc Energy Trust chief executive John Dielwart said that regardless of the tax system, trusts have had a positive economic impact due to their investments in drilling, construction and research and development.
“Minister Flaherty’s comments this weekend that income funds are a clear and present danger to the Canadian economy - certainly he can't be talking about the existing trusts, which have been generating significant economic activity in this country,” said Dielwart.
