LETTER TO THE EDITOR
TheToronto Star. |
A carbon tax creates jobs. To work, carbon tax must sting
Jan. 20 2008.
It is understandable that most people oppose a carbon tax if they think it
will be a new tax. Nobody wants additional taxation. But a carbon tax would
be welcomed by most of us if it was part of a tax shift off jobs and
businesses. A carbon tax should be used to create a revenue stream with which
governments reduce other taxes by an equal amount, dollar for dollar. |
