Fraser Institute is funded by wealthy Canadian corporate and rich individuals, you should read this:

As the article pointed out:
"Tax cuts over the last 15 years have seriously undermined Canada’s fiscal capacity and have made our tax system a lot less fair. Progressive taxes, which ask higher-income Canadians to pay higher rates (like the personal income tax), have shrunk as a share of the total tax bill while regressive taxes like the GST and other consumption taxes have gone up, taking up a higher share of incomes for lower-income households than from higher-income households."
"The problem with Canada’s tax system today isn’t that average Canadians are paying too much tax, but that high-income Canadians and profitable businesses are paying too little."
“当前加拿大税赋体制的主要问题并不是普通加拿大劳动者付的税太高,而是那些高收入的人和高盈利的公司付出的税太少了。"
再往深处讲,其实是FRASER在替HARPER竞选拉票,误导人们憎恨可能增加普通个人的工资税的NDP和LIBERAL,其实其他政党强调的是:增加高盈利公司的税收(NDP)和提高高收入个人的所得税(LIBERAL)。
在看看HARPER的600亿加元给BUSINESS的TAX CUT,其实是变相加剧了工资者的税赋,对实体经济根本没起作用,因为BUSINESS用得到的实惠在亚洲墨西哥建厂,本地工人照样被LAYOFF,给政府更增加税的消耗。
