Hi John,
One bad tax is gone and you can stop another one.
The good news is that the digital services tax that was about to be slapped on everything from Netflix to Amazon to Uber has been scrapped.
The problem is that companies would have passed on those taxes to customers like YOU when you download your favourite show or order something you need on Amazon.
That tax would have cost Canadians billions and turned up the heat on trade disputes (even former president Joe Biden strongly opposed a DST).
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation fought the DST from the beginning and it’s good that it’s gone.
But here’s the thing: Carney has another doozey of a tax coming your way.
Carney campaigned on imposing a carbon tariff. The idea is simple. If another country doesn’t impose policies like Carney’s industrial carbon tax, he’ll slap a carbon tax on its exports to Canada.
Think about what carbon tariffs would do. First, they would make the things you buy more expensive. Second, they would inflame trade disputes even more.
This is YOUR chance to join thousands of taxfighters across Canada to stop the carbon tariffs.
When YOU sign the petition, you’re taking a stand. You'll be the first to know when there are big opportunities for you to make a difference.
Will you sign the PETITION to stop the carbon tariffs?
We, the undersigned, call on all Canadian politicians to say no to carbon tariffs.
NOTE: If the automatic form isn't working on your device, here’s the petition website: https://www.taxpayer.com/petitions/no-carbon-tariffs
If you’ve already signed the petition, will you forward this petition to one more taxfighter because you need everyone doing their part to win this fight?
The best time to fight a tax is before it happens. Taxfighters like you started pushing back against the DST years ago and it’s gone. Now you can stop carbon tariffs before they get started.
Thanks for taking a stand – it’s making a difference.
All the best,
Kris Sims
Alberta Director
