Vernon City Councillor Bob Spiers has asked for support for an on-line Parliamentary petition he initiated that calls on the federal government to remove the GST being charged on the Carbon Tax - no more tax on a tax.
The petition reads, "Whereas: The Government of British Columbia instituted a carbon tax in 2008 and the federal government GST is still being charged on this carbon tax. We the undersigned citizens of Canada call upon the Government of Canada to eliminate the GST being charged on this or any other future carbon tax enacted by the provinces or territories."
The petition can be found at https://petitions.parl.gc.ca/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-713
