Hi John,

Wow – that escalated FAST and you might want to get on board.

Tens of thousands of taxpayers have signed the petition to take sales taxes off of other gas taxes.

And we just launched the petition on Friday.

In case you missed it, the details are below, but here’s the bottom line…

You pay all kinds of hidden taxes when you fill up at the gas station.

And then, on top of all of those taxes, you get hit with sales taxes such as the GST or HST.

Think about that. You pay the sales tax on the gas. And you also pay the sales tax on those gas taxes. That’s a tax on tax. And you shouldn’t have to pay it.

You can join tens of thousands of taxpayers who are already signing the petition – just click this link: [link removed] ([link removed] > 1|*true&status2=

Have a good one,

Todd.

Hey John,

You know governments charge you too many taxes.

But did you know you pay taxes on top of taxes at the gas station?

When you head to the gas station and fill up your car, you are paying Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s carbon tax and the federal excise gas tax. In most provinces, you also pay provincial gas taxes. If you live in Vancouver, Victoria or Montreal, add a transit tax on top of that.

But Ottawa is also charging you extra GST, not just on the price of gas, but on top of the cost of all those other taxes.

This is called tax-on-tax.

Many provinces are hitting drivers with a tax-on-tax as well.

The federal tax-on-tax for the carbon tax alone will cost Canadians $595 million this year. And Ottawa doesn’t even pretend to send any rebates for all of that tax-on-tax.

You already pay enough taxes every year, you shouldn’t be paying taxes on top of your taxes too.

Will you sign the PETITION and join the fight to stop the tax-on-tax?

It’s wrong for the government to charge taxes on top of the other taxes it already forces us to pay.

All governments need to stop collecting tax-on-tax.

We, the undersigned, call on all governments to stop collecting tax-on-tax.

* YES – I’ll sign the petition (just click this link to automatically add your name) ([link removed] > 1|*true&status2=

Governments need to scrap taxes that make life more expensive, but fighting to end tax-on-tax is another way to get taxpayers much needed relief.

Sincerely,
