木然:有人头税后裔说“苦主”不是他们
"当年政府为了阻止华人进入加拿大,对所有入境的中国人开始征收50元的”人头税”(Head Tax),这币税款逐年增加,至1900年增至100元,1903年再增至500元。"
我们一家三口几年前登陆时每人 交了975 加元.
问题:
这是否是”人头税”(Head Tax)?
Hi Head Tax itself is not an issue, but discretional treatment is the problem. For example, if they charge all immigrants the same landing fee, that can not be disputed as a discrimination against Chinese immigrants. So the " Head Tax" you paid is not the same as "Head Tax" Chinese paid 100 years ago.
