    Our MP is a Conservative, so pretty sure he will be voting against it.

    Until the Liberals get voted out, they will not rescind this tax. Just another blatant tax grab to fatten up government coffers and to think up new ways to make Canadians poorer. Disgusting.......

    I’m have trouble understanding, How does this “impact us all” if I don’t drink? I understand government raising taxes on things I buy impacts me but I don’t buy alcohol, ever.

    So, please help me realize how this negativity impacts me and I will be happy to write my MP.

    Even if you would never touch a drop of alcohol, the escalator tax is a dangerous policy because it automatically hikes taxes every year. There’s no vote in Parliament. It’s taxation without representation.

    And this policy could spread to all kinds of other taxes
