We have had a royal commission on taxation. Carter. 1971. Partially implemented by P. Trudeau. Very little that one could add to it. Oh, and the ideal is a flat tax on all income ("a buck is a buck") at 11% which then and now would fund the government, and Carter observed that was without taking into account the fact that the Revenue department's billion dollar a year (then) expense would be reduced dramatically. Now supports a monster that eats about seven billion giving taxpayers headaches and accountants a living, and is even more ripe for a good pruning.  Income tax return would be one page; and everyone would contribute. Mr Trudeau's problem is that the taxpayers can see through his bafflegab: he may pretend to be after "the rich", but given his spending habits, "the rich" is going to be everyone who pays taxes.
