'''^"^â- â- ^i^^r Marking of gasoline for special uses under the jurisdiction of the Oil Controller for Canada having been discontinued, the ta.x exemption purchase permit svstem is thereby ended. Farmers, fishermen, guides and tourist outfitters will be entitled to claim refund of the Provincial Gasoline Tax where applicable. Claims, accompanied by receipted invoices, must be submitted to the Gasoline Tax Branch, Department of Highways, Parliament Buildings, Toronto within six months from date of payment of invoices. A simplified method of assuring prompt payment of refunds, eliminadng affidavits for each claim, has been worked out. â- ^^«9^^< if '-Wi?. I â- . As there is no rationing of gasoline in Canada, marked gasoline, under the jurisdiction of the Oil Controller for Canada, has been eliminated, thereby ending the tax exemption purchase permit system. To meet the desire of everyone to be relieved of wartime restrictions, the Provincial Government has developed a new system as free from controls and difficuldes as possible. A simplified refund form has been prepared which eliminates the necessity of an affidavit being taken for each refund claim. This form may be obtained on application to the Gasoline Tax Branch, Department of Highways, Toronto, Ontario. **^.. ^i#- ti^* =m • The ending of marked gasoline sale removes difficulties made necessary by this wartime control. -' • Complaints were made that marked gasoline was detrimental to the equipment in which it was being used. • Records and reports necessary under the marked gasoline system will no longer be required. • Exua storage facilities will be unnecessary for the separate storage of graded • and marked gasoline with consequent saving to the consumer.
