6 October 2026BBCDave Beausire said GST would have a massive effect on businessesA business owner has expressed concerns about the effect changes to Guernsey's tax system will have on businesses. Politicians voted by 22 votes for and 17 against to approve Policy and Resources' (P&R) tax package consisting of GST, a 15% income tax on the first £28,000 earned, higher social security rates, a new annual vehicle tax, higher corporate taxes and government savings. Dave Beausire from Le Mont Saint Garage said it would have a "massive effect on business". Deputy Lindsay de Sausmarez, President of the P&R Committee, said the States has to stabilise public finances... and reduce the tax burden on people who are struggling with the cost of living". Guernsey Retail Group said many retailers would be disappointed and worried for the future of their business following the decision. Beausire said he has already seen businesses on social media making the decision to close at the end of 2028. He said: "GST for business like ours, that buys in wholesale goods and then retails them out, it's going to cost me at least another person to administer it.

This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Ethan Alexander. It has been edited for length and clarity. Each year, I get a $500 gift from an investment account that my great-grandfather set up for all of his great-grandkids. My gramps — Jack Davis — owned his own company and left a legacy of entrepreneurship in our family. I get the money on his birthday, May 9th. In 2025, my sophomore year of high school, I came across a video on Instagram about making a profit by reselling items online shortly after I received Gramp's gift. I had stopped playing lacrosse, my typical spring sport, and I was looking for something to fill my time. I used the $500 to pay someone to teach me how to resell. I didn't do much research, just thought "what's the worst that can happen? " The business took off immediately, and I generated just under $10,000 in revenue that first month. In August, I did more than $25,000 in revenue. I resold lots of goods at a relatively small profitSuccess reselling on Amazon comes from volume. I would find a product where I could make a relatively small profit margin — about $2 to $4 — and sell lots of it.

The Supreme Court of Newfoundland and Labrador has certified a class action on behalf of passengers on board Air Canada Flight AC 2259 which landed hard at Halifax in December of 2025 after the plane’s landing gear collapsed. The flight had taken off from St. John’s International earlier that evening, and officials at YYT later confirmed that debris was found on one of its runways after the flight took off. They wouldn’t say at the time whether the discovery was related to the incident at Halifax. The class action names Air Canada, Provincial Aerospace Ltd, St. John’s International Airport Authority and the Halifax International Airport Authority, all of whom have consented to certification. Stephen Barnes of Bob Buckingham Law says they want to understand what went wrong that night and make sure that passengers have an opportunity to be fairly compensated for what they went through. The case will examine whether the defendants met their responsibilities for aircraft safety, runway safety and emergency response, and whether any failures caused injury or loss to passengers.
