I believe Canada introduced income tax somewhere around 1917. It was suppose to be a short term measure in aid of the war effort. Well that war is long gone, but not the tax. Governments have only grown larger, become major employers and instilled the most ridiculous yardstick of measure as in, make sure you use up your gov't budget, or next year you'll get less. Now we get another ridiculous idea from the people who lie to get elected.
How about this, the ill and handicapped should get whatever they need to live in dignity. The second and third generations on welfare support get to ride an iceberg....for free, forever or till it melts. Survival of the fittest has worked so far, let's not upset the nature of things. 
Why don't people who need food banks volunteer there?  
Pay people who do nothing $1,400/ month and a pensioner who's worked all their adult life $900/month........and they contributed.
Yes folks, the lunatics are running the asylum for those lunatic voters.
