I wonder how many individuals moved here during the last 10 years when our taxes were lower.
If there is a significant impact of rich people, and their taxable income, leaving our province now, wouldn't there had been a significant increase of rich foreigners moving here to use our tax rates?
People only seem to use one individual as an example of why higher tax rates don't work, yet don't point to examples of how the lower tax rates brought people here.
Also for clarity, I am avoiding businesses taxes in this point.
