The GST replaced a hidden 13. 5 % Manufacturers ' Sales Tax ( MST ); Mulroney claimed the GST was implemented because the MST was hindering the manufacturing sector's ability to export competitively.

The purpose of the national sales tax was to replace the 13. 5 % Manufacturers ' Sales Tax ( MST ) that the federal government imposed at the wholesale level on manufactured goods.

Although the GST was promoted as revenue-neutral in relation to the MST, a large proportion of the Canadian population disapproved of the tax.

The Government defended the tax as a replacement for a tax unseen by consumers because it was placed on manufacturers, and in the long run it was posited that removing the MST would make Canada more competitive.

Once the MST was replaced with the GST prices did not initially fall by the level some thought appropriate immediately ; however, proponents have argued that in Canada's market economy the MST's replacement could only be expected to influence prices over time and not on a stroke.

It was formed by activists of the student movement and the peasant leagues ( a pro-agrarian reform group, considered the predecessor of MST ).

After further testing, the payload ( which has already been enclosed in its fairing ) is transported to the pad, hoisted into the MST by a crane, and attached to the vehicle.

At the same time, the said group of attorneys made public a formely classified report of the State's Council of Public Attorneys which asked the State to press charges at the courts for banning the MST by having it declared as an illegal organization, a task for which the report considered further investigations useless, " as it was public knowledge that the movement and its leadership were guilty of engaging in organized criminality ". The report proposed also that, in municipalities where the presence of MST activists could " cause electoral disequilibrium ", said activists ' franchise was to be withdrawn by striking them from the voters ' registry.

During the 1980s in Argentina, the Trotskyist party founded in 1982 by Nahuel Moreno, MAS, ( Movimiento al Socialismo, Movement Toward Socialism ), claimed to be the " largest Trotskyist party " in the world, before it broke into a number of different fragments in the late 1980s, including the present-day MST, PTS, MAS, IS, PRS, FOS, etc.

According to the MST itself, its aims are: firstly, to fight for access to the land for poor workers in general, something to be carried out, secondly, through land reform in Brazil, and, thirdly, through activism around social issues impinging on the achievment of land possession, such as unequal income distribution, racism, gender issues, Media monopolies, etc.

The MST identifies what it believes to be unproductive rural land that does not meet its social function and occupies it, through a strategy of continuous and massive occupations throughout the entire national territory, afterwards moving to ascertain the legality of the occupations. The MST is represented in these activities by public interest legal counsel, including their own lawyers, sons and daughters of MST families, as well as organizations such as Terra de Direitos, a human rights organization of civil society co-founded by Darci Frigo, the 2001 Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Human Rights Award Laureate.

By the same token, the MST developed at the time what was to be its chief modus operandi: its organizing around local, concrete stuggles of a specific demographic group.

Some scholars agree that these MST communal schools tend to be markedly better than its conventional counterparts in rural communities, in both quantitative and qualitative terms.

In her report, the MST is said to be " indoctrinating " children between the ages of 7 and 14-a conclusion reached by the journalist after a quote from the MST publication " Education Notebook, no.

Throughout the early 2000s, in addition to the incidents described above and to various episodes of occupying derelict farms and public buildings, the MST occupied functioning facilities owned by large corporations whose activities it considers to be at variance with the principle of the social function of property.

Opposedly, MST leaders emphasized at the time and since that their practical activity was a response to the existence of a host of destitutes whose prospects of obtaining productive, continuous employment in conventional labor markets was bleak, as admitted even by President Cardoso, who during a 1996 interview, said: " I'm not to say that my government will be of the excluded, for that it cannot be [...] I don't know how many excluded there will be ".

Attempts at lawmaking that could be tailored in order to define the MST as a " terrorist organization " were also successfully opposed by Workers ' Party congresspersons.

The evidence offered by the magazine was a Police phone tap recording depicting a conversation between PCC leaders during which one of the members of the gang said that he had " just talked with the leaders of the MST " who were going to " give instructions " to the gang about the better way of staging what was to be the largest prisoner's relatives protest in Brazilian history, on April 18, 2005, with more than 4, 000 prisoners ' relatives protesting against prevailing conditions in São Paulo State correctional facilities.

In 2008, a group of public attorneys from the State of Rio Grande do Sul, workingly jointly with the State's Military ( uniformed ) Police, elaborated a report charging the MST of working in colusion with various international terrorist groups-such a report being used in the State's courts, according to Amnesty International, as a justification for eviction orders carried out by the Police with what AI deemed to be " excessive use of force ".

Conversely, declarations issued at the same time by the State's Association of Military Policy Commissioned Officers went into an open Red Scare vein, declaring the MST outrightly to be " an organized movement striving at instituting a totalitarian state in our country ".

The MST replied by declaring the farm to be government property, illegally embezzled by Cutrale, and that the occupation was intended as a protest against this state of affairs, the concomitant destruction being the work of provocateurs .- such questioning of the formal legality of existing private property by denouncing landowers as helding land in adverse possession being one of the movement's main political tools.

Although the MST wholeheartedly declared support for the candicacy of Dilma Roussef to the Presidency, her declarations after being elected offered the movement very qualified support: in a declaration on national broadcast in November 2010, she declared the land reform issue to be a question " of human rights ", i. e., a purely humanitarian one.

Landless Workers ' Movement (, or simply MST ) is a social movement in Brazil, being generally regarded as one of the greatest ( or, according to some, the greatest ) largest social movement in Latin America with an estimated informal 1. 5 million membership in 23 out of Brazil's 26 states.

Following in the tracks of various messianic or partisan-inspired movements for land reform in Brazil, the MST differs from its previous counterparts in its being mostly a single-issue movement, treating land reform as a self-justifying cause.

The MST is an ideologically eclectic rural movement of hundreds of thousands of landless peasants ( and some who live in small cities ) striving to achieve land reform in Brazil.

In the mid-1980s the MST created a new infrastructure for the movement directly guided by liberation theology and Freirian pedagogy.

The MST has widened the scope of their movement by organizing more than just encampments and occupations of large farms.

This accusatory stance only raised pitch throughout the years: in February 2009, one finds the magazine opposing public support to the " criminal " activities of the movement and the MST in turn, for instance, charging the magazine, a year later, with " vandalizing " both journalism and truth itself.

The increased importance of the technicians and experts within the MST has led some sections of the movement to strive to develop and diffuse technology suitable with a model of sustainable agriculture on the lands the families farm.

In the long history of violent land conflicts in Brazil, the emergence of the MST and its consolidation as the most prominent land reform movement acting in Brazil during the 1990s has led to what has been called a first " wave " of MST-led occupations ( 1995 – 1999 ), and with it the movement's involvement in various episodes of bloody clashes and ensuing conflicting claims, where government authorities, landowners and the MST charge each other for being responsible for the eventual deaths, maimings and property damages.

Cardoso, himself, however, never branded the MST as terrorist-a step taken by his Minister of Agricultural Development, who even hypothesized about an invasion of Argentine from the North by the movement as a form of blackmailing the Brazilian government into action.

This supposedly opposition to capitalist modernity on the part of the movement has led authors to ascertain that the MST activities express, in a way, the decline of a traditional peasantry, and its desire of restoring traditional communal rights.

-which would the difference between the MST and a movement for the preservation of such communal rights as the Zapatista Army of National Liberation.

According even to a Leftist scholar like James Petras, the MST is undoubtedly a modernizing social movement, in that his main goal is to convert fallow states into viable units producing a marketable surplus-" to occupy, resist and produce ", as the movement's own motto goes.

The beginning of the Lula government was regarded by the MST as the beginning of a Left and therefore friendly government, the movement deciding to shun occupations of public buildings in favor of actions directed solely towards private landed states, in a second wave of occupations from 2003 onwards.

By the end of Lula's first term, it was clear that the MST had decided to act again as a separate movement, irrespective of the government's agenda.

As far as the MST was concerned, the greatest gain it received from the Lula government was the non-criminalization of the movement itself-the tough anti-occupation measures taken by the Cardoso government being left in abeyance through non-enforcing.

The MST denied the link with a formal written statement implying the supposed evidence offered was only hearsay, supplied as an attempt to criminalize the movement.

In the wake of 9-11, much of Brazilian Midia showed a tendency to describe the MST as " terrorist " by lumping it together loosely with various historical and midiatic happenings and thereby following an international post-9-11 trend of relegating any political movement seem as contradictory to existing glabalization outside the boundaries of permissible political discourse.

In late 2005, a parliamentary inquiry commission where landowners-friendly congressmen had a majority issued a report classifying the activities of the MST as " terrorist " and the movement itself as a criminal organization.
