The Great Revenue Robbery

Just after the announcement of the Harper government’s budget in 2013, Canadians for Tax Fairness published a new book on tax policy called The Great Revenue Robbery: How to stop the tax cut scam and save Canada.

There are ten contributors to this book, which is edited by Richard Swift. Their topics include:

1. rebuilding our social programs;

2. reducing the income gap between rich and poor;

3. a restoration of environmental responsibility by industry and governments,

4. and revitalizing the Canadian economy.

Thomas Walkom, who writes for the Toronto Star, is quoted as saying; “This is a welcome critique of conventional economic wisdom. If you thought tax cuts would solve all your problems, read The Great Revenue Robbery and think again.”

This book is an essential read for anyone who wishes to engage in the conversation about tax fairness in Canada.
