The worst part of the current federal budget was the decision to raise taxes on transit riders.
.
The argument that this credit was economically inefficient has merit.  However, the only way to reduce the congestion tax is to get more people to take transit.  People who ride transit vote for transit.
.
In Ontario, only one of the three parties is committed to building transit.
.
One of the three parties - the one owned by the oil companies - has an unblemished 25 year history of killing transit wherever it forms a govenment.
.
The last thing Ontario should want is to alienate voters who ride transit.
.
So what do they do?
.
Hike taxes on transit rides.
.
Only major tax hike in the entire budget.
