That,s the funniest thing I,ve read tonight! THE LOW INCOME CLIMATE ACTION TAX CREDIT, 200 bucks will buy a bag of swag. That,s exactly like burning the money on both ends. CLIMATE ACTION TAX CREDIT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA snow removal is climate action fer fuk sake
Low income people tend not to pay too much tax so a tax credit really doesn't amount to much. They will pay far more than they get in gas or heating costs to line the government coffers.
You still think there is any human influence on the climate eh? Poor you.
Of course you think a tax on Canadians when our environment absorbs 20% more carbon than we create as a country is a good thing so your a gullible moron.
The poor lend the province money for over a year and are paid back quarterly over the next year. This means poor wait 1 year and 9 months to get paid back without interest.
High income earners should get the tax credit since we actually pay taxes. Why should someone who already pays nothing get extra cash from my pocket.

I can be quite civilized without ever paying taxes to anyone for any reason. So much for OWH!
So what happens if you pay your taxes but fail to get much civilization in return?
Why the hell should it be? If you want people to use more fuel-efficient cars or to carpool then increasing fuel prices is probably the only way to encourage it.
