The results of a new poll, asking Albertans whether or not they want to see a sales tax implemented in the province, show that residents have no taste for the proposal.
The poll, conducted on January 18 from a test group of 3,184 Albertans, found that 73 percent were not in favour of a provincial sales tax.
The firm found that the idea of a PST came dead last against other revenue streams. The preferred method in the poll was an increase of user fees and sin taxes on alcohol and cigarettes.

well no ####. People are pretty unlikely to respond favourably to any new tax.
