Dion's New Tax

I think it was last year sometime that I read that as Stephen Harper and his Minister of Finance were cutting taxes and the GST, they were also undercutting the Liberal Party's ability to find money for great social engineering spending programs. The Liberals didn't take long to find a new way to advance their cause. Find a new tax. They couldn't, with any credibility suggest that they'd raise the GST or income tax to spend their billions on whom ever they wanted to make recipients of their largesse. So they've hooked their "tax cow" to the "environmental cart". They'll tax the living daylights out of "carbon sources", with the mantra, "this is for the planet"; but really it's for their programs.

And may all of you have pleasant and blessed "Dominion Day."
