These tax proposals were a significant political error by the Federal Liberals.
I cannot believe the party allowed Morneau to come forward with policies which: 1) Allow the Conservatives to reignite the mantra that the Liberals are a tax and spend party (the soft underbelly of the Liberal Party)
2) Are literally a smart bomb targeted at the most organized and activist members of society (professionals and small business owners)
3) Do little to raise income for the government ($250 million is one estimate).
4) Have no natural constituency to support the changes.

Trudeau has to replace his finance minister.
