Harper Is Cutting Taxes Again?!
September 12th, 2008 Posted in Canada Election
Stephen Harper’s plan to cut the excise tax on diesel fuel is a smart move. The last time this was used in an election, the PC’s beat out the NDP in Saskatchewan for the first time.
A diesel fuel cut will help lower the price of everything we consume on a daily basis.
If you read the story, it’s playing out as a horrible plan.
My favorite comment from the article:

Let me get this straight. Mr. Harper has cut the GST and now has some plan to decrease my taxes further? He wants to get tough on crime, improve Canada’s soverignty, strengthen our (Liberal) gutted military, protect families…
May I vote now please?
Good thing Canadians hate taxes more that the media and Liberals love them.

Harper is cutting taxes on diesel fuel while Dion is planning to raise them.
Diesel fuel produces less C02 per mile than gasoline.
Harper’s tax cut will reduce C02 emissions while Dion’s tax increase will increase C02 emissions.

I really wish people would quit useing the “it emmits less CO2″ than this or that argument your only giving ligitimicy to the idea CO2 is a problem, It’s not and legislating for it by anyone is irresponsible and foolish.
We all know Kyoto was a scam and that the globe is not warming nor can CO2 warm the globe so why would you allow the farce of CO2 to continue to be a part of your arguments?

Durward,I agree 100%,when will they stop using the co2 myth in the conversation.It is only used by the top leaders, PM Harper and his ministers because it is so ingrained in voters minds via Suzuki and Gore and Dion that to argue against it would send the borderline votes to the Libs.What a sad world we live in that gives the fools , the followers and the MSM control of how the world is run.Thank god we get a break now and then with leaders like PM Harper.And do you notice the MSM have hardly let up on PM Harper and the Conservatives and are now in love with Iggy.Anything to get the Libs back to trough.PM Harper should just shut down the CBC and balance the playing field of bias.And maybe Sue the ass off of Iggy for his slanderous speech about PM Harper during his Leadership speech.
