Taxing the rich

Projects & Initiatives: Growing Gap

There's a growing movement in Canada to pressure our governments to ask those who have more to give to contribute more in taxes. A new Environics Poll for the Broadbent Institute shows 83% of Canadians favour raising taxes on the richest. And a new movement, Doctors for Fair Taxes reflects a growing number of Canadians are willing to do their part. But there is some resistance, and we're not just talking about Canada's politicians. Watch CCPA's Senior Economist Armine Yalnizyan speak truth to power in this CTV debate with a strenuous opponent to higher taxes on the rich.
