RE: Empty Your Pockets- Jan 13/17
Dear Editor:
One need only recall the truth Premier Wynne told during the 2014 election campaign to determine the ultimate goal of carbon taxation. This truth is easy to remember as, sadly, it was the only one.
Wynne said her government would “remove tens of thousands of cars off of our roads” When this goal is reached, what will Ontario look like? Venezuela comes to mind.
I feel I need to take action as constant complaining is useless and makes me cranky.
So, here’s my plan.
Ms. Wynne and Glen Thibeault will receive a monthly invoice demanding a rebate of all carbon taxes incurred by my household.
Included in the invoice: the 4.5 cents per litre on Ethanol, a 10% rebate on our total hydro and natural gas bills and a 5% rebate on total food costs.
Ten percent seems more that fair considering the hydro carbon tax was deliberately hidden in the delivery charge. This to prevent us from knowing the extent to which we are being hosed.
These invoices will be copied to interested third parties, of which there are many more that six and will not include CTV or CBC. Trudeau will receive his in due course depending on what he undertakes to impoverish us further.
Hard copes will be mailed to Queen’s Park to prevent denial of their receipt.
This plan has taken very little of my precious time and that’s good as I am a very busy woman.
