Dalton McGuinty: Ontario Taxpayers

Ontario taxpayers: Buried on a busy news day with major political scandals exploding in both Toronto and Ottawa, many folks may have missed the news of a series of new taxes in Ontario. The government wants taxpayers across Ontario directly and indirectly to fund a lofty proposal to modernize Torontos transportation infrastructure, according to The Star. Ignore the $272 billion of public debt more than half of which was racked up by the current administration under both Dalton McGuinty and Kathleen Wynne. This government wants more of our money, more influence over the economy, and more control over our mobility and how we choose to get around and Conveniently released just one week after the provinces $11.9 billion deficit budget was supported, Ontario taxpayers received the grim news that this government will in fact hike taxes in Ontario. The timing is so convenient. The governments transit bureau released its Big Move report, and its solution is exactly what should be expected from a tax-and-spend government. Taxes, taxes, and more taxes. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
