Here are some examples how taxes affect us. I purchased a monitor for $99.00 then I paid $12.25 ON ENVFEE; then I paid 13% H S T tax which was $13.00 and if the eco tax was not suspended for 90 days, how much tax would I have paid above the $ 25.00 tax I already paid on a $99.00 purchase and I would like people to go to [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCLHMr-JZJI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCLHMr-JZJI[/url] to watch Mcguinty say he will not raise taxes.
McGuinty has repeatedly broken an election promise not to raise taxes; One he gave in writing to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation in 2003.
First it was the health tax, followed by increases in licensing fees; recycling fees for electronics and the HST Eco fee smart meter, maybe a 40 % in hydro as they start kicking in another 12% hydro increase in May 2010 thinking of a carbon tax is what's next.
Ontario is running a deficit that’s roughly 20% of total revenues, according to TD -- the highest ratio of any province. So I ask you how can this man and his Liberal government be trusted as I believe his only way is to keep inventing taxes. One has to remember the eco tax is not gone for good he is just reinventing it, maybe as a hidden fee which affects medical supplies, also hundreds of other items. And don't forget, he put Ontario 25 billion in debt and his only way out is more taxes.
