Are you ready for new taxes?

Isn't it fantastic how the dropping Canadian dollar has also dragged our gas tank prices down. Finally we have proof that petroleum is actually a free market!

What do you mean, no?
What do you mean that this is OPEC trying to bitch-slap Russia that is driving both of these down?

Hold on...so you mean to tell me that neither PM Harper, nor Premier McWynnty can't take credit for the lowering fuel costs?

Will they take credit when they introduce new taxes to try and recover their lost tax revenues on the lowering fuel?

It's not a tax...it's a seven cent a litre carbon adjustment revenue tool. Designed so we won't pollute as much. It will make all of us stop driving...gotta love Wynne...she comes up with new shit and we eat it.

The nanny-state was bad enough under her predecessor. Now it will only get worse.

That said, this issue will not be solely seen on provincial levels, either.
