The carbon tax gets mostly rebated, it's not like a "real tax". *Fuzz pauses for incoming strawman rant about CoL increases* Done? *Fuzz pauses for false equivalency comparison to GST rebates* OK? OK!
Harper left a massive infrastructure deficit and only managed to balance the budget with creative sales of assets.
And yes, Liberal spending really seems to be out to lunch, and it's time for a change of government in some manner to fix that.
Now, what issue do you think the GST was implemented to solve?
