Well I don't know the answer to the question but I would imagine we already have a group of bureaucrats collecting the carbon tax.
Not sure how big of an increase it would require to also collect other taxes.
I don't generally support an increase in the size of government but having the ability to control the flow of capital is a huge bargaining chip in our upcoming fight within confederation.
