Re: Internet Sales Tax
The article highlighted something that everyone here has left out. It mentions "That the cigar smoking community is a relatively small group of taxpayers/voters making them a relatively easy target".
As a Canadian living that line right now let me explain the dangers of that statement.
Once they have a solid way to tax cigars country wide , online and offline. Once they have control. They are going to raise the tax on cigars to an obscene level.
Want to know what a Rocly Patel 1992 costs me at my local B&M. 35$ PER STICK.
Canada gained control by making tobacco sales between provinces illegal. Then imposing a ridiculous federal tax and allowing the provinces to tack on whatever extra taxation they felt like. IIRC Alberta and NFDLD have the highest tobacco taxes in Canada.
Fight this tooth and nail boys.
