It is a real annoyance when the "progressives," pan a tax measure because it, "only benefits the rich."  It is the rich who pay the taxes in Canada . . . who else can a tax measure benefit?  The poor in Canada pay virtually no tax.  The most recent study indicated that the top 1% of taxpayers paid 21.6% of all income taxes paid.  By contrast, the bottom 50% of taxpayers collectively contributed only 4% of all income taxes paid.  One third of working Canadians paid no federal tax at all!  Which group isn't carrying their own weight?

And to call it a tax expenditure is hideous!  It presumes that all money belongs to government; any portion of a citizen's earnings they allow a taxpayer to keep is therefore an expenditure of government funds.  That they would revert to that type of Orwellian doublespeak is a telling trait of a Liberal government.  

Two  years, ten months left until we can Turf Trudeau!
