Provincial taxes are better than federal taxes. Municipal taxes are better than provincial taxes. If I was in charge I would immediately slash federal taxes by 50% or so and give that money to municipalities and provinces.
That’s just a recipe for the quick death of small and rural communities and the further consolidation of people into overpopulated urban areas. It also makes smaller provinces effectively nonviable.

It’s just not very smart.
