Proposes Discriminatory Legislation Via 2022 'Luxury Tax'
Next year, 2022, could be bad news for generation and other industries after being targeted by Canadian liberal legislators putting forward a luxury tax so that pilots and boat owners can 'pay their fair share.' The Ottawa government is proposing to charge a luxury tax on new cars and personal aircraft priced over $100,000, and boats, for personal use, priced over $250,000. Federal Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland says this is perfectly OK because various legislators expect pilots and boaters to make up for government shortcoming s due to the COVID crisis, even though Canada's response to the crisis has come under heavy criticism.
