[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some increase in budget is inevitable because everything costs more. But it certainly would be nice to see them attempting to cut the fat before raising everyone's taxes.

I am actually more interested in a targeted tax like Nadeau's on food delivery simply because then you choose whether or not to pay it. I don't know that food delivery is the right target (what is the reasoning on taxing that? increased burden on traffic by delivery drivers? unsure) but targeted taxes on activities that aren't necessary don't bother me as much as across the board increases.

What I'd really love is if we didn't live in this dumb no mans land with regards to marijuana, and we could just tax that industry to the hilt. We get all the negatives of legalized marijuana without the revenue benefit. It's so annoying.[/quote]

I'm only interested in that tax because it would prinarily impact the annoying subset of Millennial transplants that have been behind half the dumb ass crap the Council has been pushing since the pandemic.[/quote]
