Financial times getting tougher |
for us poor, ordirnary Canadians

Kevin Avram

THE CANADIAN TAXPAYERS FEDERATION

I think it’s fair to say that nearly
everybody in Canada is getting
poorer.

Most of us are having a harder time
paying our bills than we’
ve ever had; both citizens and business
are being hammered by high living and
operating costs, as various levels of gov-
ernment are now taking over half the
money we earn in the form of taxes.

‘Cross border shopping,
having been fueled by the
GST is turning into a regular
activity for millions of
Canadians.’

Over the past 15 years our politicians
at both the provincial and federal levels
have borrowed so much money that our
governments are now restricted in their
capacity to respond to fiscal matters.

Ontario Premier Bob Rae has finally
admitted that expanding the welfare
rolls and borrowing billions in an at-
tempt to create prosperity is a pipe
dream, and, not unlike Ontario, other
provincial governments are scrambling
to deal with the exploding cost of servic-
ing their public debt. Cross border shop-
ping, having been fueled by the

millions of Canadians.

Manufacturers and other industrial
corporations are either moving, or look-
ing at moving to places like Tennessee,
New York, South Dakota and Washing-
ton. Costs are less there, meaning they
can be more internationally competitive,
and many states such as South Dakota,
Nevada, Texas, and Florida don’t have
any personal income tax, and in some
cases no corporate income tax either.

Back in the 1970s, when the govern-
ment of Pierre Elliott Trudeau started to
borrow on an annual basis, a few isolat-
ed-voices were raised in opposition. “You
will destroy the nation,” they declared,
as they argued against Trudeau’s fiscal
policies. Throughout this time though,
most Canadians sat back and did noth-
ing. They enjoyed the benefits of govern-
ment spending, cashed their baby bonus
cheques, pension cheques, and sat silent-
ly by as the Trudeau government accel-
erated spending at unprecedented
peacetime levels.

In 1984 when Mulroney took over, he
had an excellent opportunity to get a
handle on the ballooning debt. Instead,
he spent the first few years of his man-
date elevating patronage to a new art
form, and refused to deal with the ex-
panding debt in any significant way.
Now, because we haven’t had a leader
who was prepared to make responsible
fiscal decisions, we are being faced with
consequences. Of every tax dollar that
Canadians pay the federal government,
36 cents is being used to pay interest on

rowed and spent.

My old granddad told me
many times that, ‘Your
chickens will always come
home to roost.’ .

No wonder we're all getting poorer.

At the provincial level, the numbers
vary considerably but in Ontario's case,
for example, $14 billion borrowed this
year will mean that Ontario taxpayers
will be forced to shell out roughly one
and a half billion in taxes next year, and
the year after, and the year after, just to
pay the interest on what Bob Rae is go-
ing to borrow this year.

In Alberta, the Getty government has
been misleading the public about the size
and scope of their debt for years. The To-
ries in Saskatchewan did essentially the
same, and ditto for the Socreds in British
Columbia.

My old granddad told me many times
that, “Your chickens will always come
home to roost.” At the time, I didn’t
know-exactly what he meant, nor did I
know that his statement applied to a na-
tion in the same way it applied to a per-

son.

Now that I know, it will be interesting
so see what Canadians are going to do, as
it would appear that those chickens my
granddad talked about, are now coming
