If the government stops providing services, should citizens stop paying taxes?#EvanPoll #poll@evan taxes aren't conditional on services. The govt will be very happy to recover the taxes and may use violence to do so. So people should keep paying them.
Federally, taxes don't fund the spending on services - they create money first, and then tax back only a portion, much later. The ends don't meet, not paying will make no difference to the govt, since they don't need money.
If the govt stops providing services, the best way to fix that is to work as slowly as possible.

Section of criminal code amendments introduced in the House of Commons of #Canada todaySection of criminal code amendments introduced in the House of Commons of #Canada today.
This adds hate as a sentencing factor, bumping up sentences by "1 category" relative to the same offence without the hate factor.
Also better definitions, prohibition of displaying hate symbols, MUCH easier to start hate crime proceedings, intimidation protection for various places that hate criminals try to attend.
Seems like great steps, long overdue.
