Businesses report mixed results one month into GST holiday.

CFIB says most business owners saw a reduction in sales because of the temporary nature of the tax break.

Restaurants Canada report a seven to nine per cent boost in sales overall.

Both the CFIB and Restaurant Canada are calling on the federal government to make the tax cut permanent.
