Ukunyuswa kwamafutha amatsha okwamkelwe ziinqwelomoya zaseKhanada kwinyanga ephelileyo akwanelanga nje ukurhabaxa amaqela abathengi, abezopolitiko kunye nabakhweli, bakhulisile kugxilwe ekubeni kutheni umthetho omncinci ophumeleleyo ngehlobo ephelileyo, oya kunyanzela iinqwelomoya ukuba zibhengeze ixabiso elipheleleyo letikiti, ayikenziwa.
UMichael Pepper, intloko yeBhunga loShishino lokuHamba eOntario, uthi unempendulo elula kakhulu yokuba: “UMphathiswa wezoThutho.”
UMnu Pepper kunye nabanye bathi kukho ukungabikho komdla ocacileyo kwicala likaLawrence Cannon, uMphathiswa wezoThutho we-federal, ukuphumeza imithetho emitsha yokuthengisa, leyo, phakathi kwezinye izinto, iya kunyanzela abathwali ukuba bafake zonke iintlawulo, iintlawulo kunye neerhafu. ngexabiso elibhengeziweyo letikiti.
Intlawulo emitsha yepetroli, engaqukwanga ngoku kumaxabiso apapashiweyo, zizenzo nje zamvanje kubathengi, ibango likaMnu. Pepper. “Ipetroli lixabiso lokuqhuba inqwelomoya. Kufuneka ifakwe kwixabiso letikiti,” utshilo.
Xa iBill C-11 ifumene imvume yasebukhosini ngoJuni ophelileyo, akukho mhla ubekiweyo ukuba imithetho emitsha iza kuqala nini ukusebenza, ukuvumela uMnu Cannon ixesha lokulungelelanisa iinzame phakathi korhulumente wobumbano, olawula izibhengezo zeenqwelomoya, kunye namaphondo, alawula ezo yee-arhente zokuhamba kunye nabaqhubi bokhenketho.
Umnumzana Cannon uthi "iintlanganiso ezingekho sikweni" ziye zabanjwa kunye neenqwelomoya kunye namaphondo, kodwa "akakwazanga ukufikelela kwimvumelwano yoshishino malunga nendlela yokusingatha intengiso yeenqwelomoya."
Umphathiswa bekulindeleke ukuba avele phambi kwekomiti yasepalamente namhlanje ukuze achaze ukuba ngawaphi amanyathelo athathiweyo ekuphunyezweni kwecandelo elimalunga nezibhengezo zeenqwelomoya, elithe lahlala kwindawo yentlambululo-miphefumlo yezopolitiko phantse unyaka.
Kodwa uMnu. Cannon uye wakhetha ukuthumela ileta enamaphepha amane kwikomiti echaza ngembali yalo mthetho uyilwayo kunye neenzame zomanduleli wakhe ukuza kuthi ga ngoku. “Iya kuba bubudenge ukucebisa ngemithetho yomanyano kungekho mvumelwano,” utshilo kwileta yakhe.
Kodwa eso sizathu asihambi nabagxeki bakhe e-Ottawa, abaye bacinezela uMphathiswa kangangenyanga ukuze bafumane iimpendulo, njengoko kuxeliwe yi-Financial Post.
“Luncwadi oluhlekisayo,” utshilo uJoe Volpe, umgxeki wezothutho weLiberal, malunga neleta yoMphathiswa. “Ubenomonde wethu isithuba esingaphezulu kwenyanga … oku kubonisa ngokucacileyo ukuba urhulumente akanawo amandla okanye amandla okulungisa lo mba.”
UBrian Masse, umgxeki wezothutho we-NDP, uthe uya kujoyina uMnu.
“Sijongana noku njengomba wamalungelo abathengi,” utshilo. "Ngokucacileyo, ishishini leenqwelo moya kuya kufuneka liphendule ekunyukeni kweendleko zepetroli, kodwa abathengi kufuneka bayiqonde loo nto ukuze benze izigqibo ezifundileyo malunga nokuba baya kubhabha nomntu ophetheyo okanye bakhethe olunye uhlobo lothutho."
Iinkampani zeenqwelo moya zithi aziwuchasanga lo mthetho mtsha, ukuba nje uza kusebenza ngokulinganayo kubathuthi basekhaya nabamazwe ngamazwe, iiarhente zokuhamba kunye nabakhenkethi.
"Ukuba wonke umntu wenza into efanayo, silungile," utshilo uRichard Bartrem, isithethi saseWestJet. I-Air Canada kunye ne-Air Transat zithetha okufanayo.
Kukho, nangona kunjalo, inqanaba elithile lokuphazamiseka kwishishini. I-Ontario kunye neQuebec zenza umthetho wee-arhente zokuhamba kunye nabaqhubi beekhenkethi kumaphondo abo ukuba baveze ixabiso elipheleleyo leendleko zomoya kunye neepakethe kwiintengiso, ngelixa abo basebenza kwamanye amaphondo kunye neenqwelo-moya zijongene neemfuneko ezinjalo.
I-Association of Canadian Travel Agencies iphikisa ukuba izikali zilinganiswe ngokuthanda iinqwelomoya kwaye ikhuthaza ukuphunyezwa ngokukhawuleza kwemimiselo emitsha. “Amalungu ethu kumaphondo aphantsi kolawulo sele kufuneka apapashe elona xabiso. Ukuba iinkampani zeenqwelomoya namanye amaphondo azikwenzi oko, ayingomdlalo olinganayo,” utshilo uChristiane Theberge, ingqonyela ye-ACTA.
Umnumzana Cannon uthe kwileta yakhe uya kuqhubeka nokudibana namaphondo kunye nabachaphazelekayo kushishino “ukufumana amanyathelo asebenzayo okwenza iinqwelo-moya zicace ngakumbi.”
