RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Well , it's good to seeDivLover, Your post dove tails so well onto other posts regarding this governments stupidity. Harper, with NDP and Liberal backing approved Energy East pipeline back in 2014. Trudeau cancelled it in 2015. Had it gone ahead it would have been completed by 2017. Over 200,000 bbl/day to Eastern Canada of Alverta oil. The revenues would have stayed in Canada creating growth and jobs. Revenues from employment are the main source of tax revenues for the government.
So instead of increasing the fed's tax base through income tax and oil royalty tax Trudeau shut it down and sent money overseas importing foreign oil boosting their economies instead meanwhile, short of tax revenues, Trudeau simply created a new tax - the carbon tax. People can draw their own conclusions I guess.
