Yeah I didn't delve super deep, and basically just looked at the overall revenues. But at the end of the day the money comes from the same pocket, right? We are either paying taxes or user fees or whatever. But if the province is taking in a chunk of money to provide service and it's not less than their neighbors, do we really need increased taxation?
