Should the government raise taxes on the rich?

Lower income tax on the middle and lower class raise income tax on people who make more than a million and raise income tax on billion and million dollar corporations, abolish all tax loopholes for the rich and corporations.

Yes, and remove any possible loopholes that are currently being used or could be used by large corporations

Keep the current tax structure the same but learn how to spend better!

Increase taxes on the people who have most of Canadas wealth. the top 3% of the population has the most wealth.

Yes, increase corporation taxes, add a land value tax and reduce taxes for small businesses and individuals on middle to lower incomes

A consumption tax or luxury should be applied to non essential factors. Anything purchased should be viewed via need vs want. rough example. We all may need a frying pan but we don't need bluetooth connected frying pans. We may need clothing but we don't need Guchi socks.

they should eradicate tax loopholes, and tax the rich more, however lowering the taxes our blue collar workers pay, because we keep the lights on and the food in the stomachs of the entire country

Yes, raise income taxes and disallow/remove any tax loopholes for the rich, and for large corporations.

No, everyone should have lower tax because the poor cannot afford and the rich could become less wealthy

2 options either lower income don't pay tax only rich and raise tax on rich or no taxes at all to anyone

I think it depends on how rich the person is, if they make more than average but would be really impacted by a tax increase than I think not but someone who has millions and would hardly notice a change seems fair.

Yes by an order of magnitude, remove most loop holes. Also increase taxes on large corporations while reducing taxes for small businesses

Taxes should be proportional to your net worth (or wealth for those who use debt as a way to lower income), including any non liquid funds/assets, so corporations/Individuals cannot use the current loopholes to lower their taxes.

Adjust the income tax rate appropriately and remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations and the “super rich”.

No, I think all the taxes that we pay should all be the same amount that everyone else pays for taxes

it doesnt matter what you get payed, you pay the same taxes and live in esentially the same area. people shouldnt be rewarded with lower taxes for making bad choices when they were younger.

Lower taxes on middle and lower class, increase on those that make more than 1 mil; and abolish most loopholes on major corporations and increase what they pay.

The rich have money to pay the accountants to plan best for lower taxes, this will just result in the middle class paying more

the overall tax for higher-income persons should be reduced as they work harder for that money and thus they should not be paying more taxes to the poor people who don't work as hard for there money.

you can keep it mostly the same but they need to account for the increase interest when considering taxes

No, why should the rich be punished for being successful? It just reduces incentives for business owners and large corporations to make jobs and make growth

people shouldnt have to pay for having money but if someone is strugiling with money the government should help them whitch would intail the government needing more money

Simplify the current tax system by: restructuring the scale to make the 2% and corporations pay more, remove existing loopholes and rebates. Automate tax returns like many countries already do, remove tax based benefits. If you remove all these deductions, rebates, and loopholes that the very rich and corporations most benefit from, then both a fair wage and fair tax rate will be revealed without wasting taxpayer money on processing an unnecessarily complex tax return. There should only be GST on luxury items. There should be some limits on corporate profit or requirements for ratios at which employees must receive higher compensation.

Yes, the more money you make, the more taxes you should pay to make up for people unable to pay such high taxes with a low income. So poor people should have lowered taxes and richer people should have higher taxes.

You shouldn't just be allowed to raise tax rates on richer people due to wealth. they worked to get to where they are.

i believe it should be relooked and made into a fair tax bracket for everyone and there circumstances

No, the carbon tax, income tax and overall taxes for business should all be changed and reduced for everyone.

Lower the tax rate and remove tax loopholes for large corporations, and tax farmers after business expenses

Do it reasonably and not take so much money from them as there are enough wealthy individuals in the country that if you do the math if you take a reasonable amount of taxes from all of them, the country would still benefit.

sliding scale tax for every bracket. mainly reform spending so that tax relief for all can be achieved

Raise taxes on the poor and lower taxes on the rich. Poor people don't make as much money because they don't contribute as much to society, so we deserve the money they have.

All taxes the same, there's many people in Canada so at the end of the day tax money will still be going to you

Lower taxes for all and take away carbon tax and other taxes that are unnecessary

yes but then that money goes to Charity ( only for the excessively rich)

Increase the income tax rate for the wealthy, but lower it for people of the middle class and remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations.

umm nahh we should have equality even for the rich and poor

increase the tax for the poor

Taxes should be relative to your income and not more than you can afford

No, and I think taxes should be lowered in general.

Higher it on billionaires

yes, they should pay about 2% more than the poor. The poor should pay 4% less.

tax more on the uber rich

Tax should be determined by a persons income and their financial status

Yes, I think we should taxe the rich but only those who are generationally wealthy and didn't work for thee money, while small businesses that made it big should get to keep there money and not be taxed as much because they worked for all of it.

Remove all taxes and make Canada a tax heaven for the rich of the world and any big foreign business will want to invest in canda

The government really needs to tax the middle-class less. If that means raising taxes on the rich, so be it.

some places in canada need a lower tax bracket and others don't and remove loopholes for company's.

No it should be fair for everyone

Why are we paying to live corrupt system.

Lower taxes for everyone but prevent loop holes for big Corporations.

No income tax, but progressive tax hoarded wealth.

Massively increase the taxes among the rich. Close the tax loopholes; ie. Limit philanthropy etc. Lower the taxes for the working classes.

No because you work hard to do what you do or be who you are and they should be able to take more but they can't take to little because then we would all have more problems

impose higher taxes on the ultra-rich, not on the upper or upper-middle class. Tax old money and multi-billionaires

Raise taxes on large corporations and billionaires, not individual millionaires

Canada should explore extensive reforms to the Tax Code which was last amended in 1967.

Lower taxes for the poor and individuals, raise taxes for large corporations and remove existing tax loopholes

No, raising taxes on those with successful careers (the rich) only makes those folks contemplate getting jobs in a lower tax brackets because they see most of their paycheque go to the government. Since Covid, citizens are starting to realize that there is more to life than working for Pennie’s on the dollar. Which in turn creates worker shortages in some of Canada’s biggest industries.

Restructure the tax brackets

No. If they work for their money and are deserving of it, taxes should not be increased on them.

Tax amounts should be based solely on gross income

Not old enough

I’m young.

A little, Don't make the rich too rich but also don't make them poor. Also lower taxes on the poor

higher for tich lower for not rich

Make it fair for both poor and rich

Increase corporate taxes by a modest amount, reduce on lower brackets, increase by a modest amount on the rich and close loopholes for the rich and corporations to hide money made in the country outside the country.

Yes, so long as a clear definition of rich is created, and all potential loopholes are closed

Yes, so long as the definition for "rich" individuals is clearly defined, and all potential loopholes are removed.

I should receive all the taxes collected from the rich

Yes, but lower taxes for people below the poverty line

Lower tax under 200k income and 10 million holdings. Raise tax otherwise.

Yes but raise mostly on large corporations

Yes, but keep is balance, Raise taxes on the rich, but also lowering taxes on the poor.

no, if the government wants to tax people, the tax payers should be providing the same amount of funds, whether they are rich or not. The economically stable individuals should not have to pay more than anyone else, because the people with lower income are then being supported by the higher uppers and not paying as much into tax.

just use percentages like charge 5 percent as an example for all income tax that way it goes up and takes ''more money'' from those who make more

Yes. The rich should be taxed according to their excess money and loopholes for large corporations must be removed.

Reform tax code to tax the rich more efficiently

Yes, as it is ridiculous to require populaces of lower financial standards to be the backbone of the rich and government financial markets

taxes should be the same for everyone. and they should depend on how much income the majority of the country makes

Yes, but raise for the super rich I.e multimillionaires and billionaires and corporations making the equivalent

tax corporations not people

Yes, but only if they make over a certain amount, like 1 million dollars

simplify taxation. end tax avoidance schemes and shelters. have government own monopolistic, high profit, nationally critical industries to subsidize government income.

Some of those people earned there money so I think we should raise them a little but not a lot

National corporations are increased

Top 1% should be taxed higher

it sould be even

It depends on what qualifies as rich. In the past few years, our family has not qualified for breaks in child care or child tax...we are nowhere near rich, but I guess considered somewhat wealthy according to whoever made the requirement up; it's ridiculous. We are middle class and also struggle.

Yes, remove all tax loopholes for the rich

Yes, but only the ridiculously rich people ; like big corporations owners. Or an alternative could be just paying their workers more

Determine the tax to the amount of wealthy people in each province. See what the citizens prefer and prevent any loopholes. Preferably make the tax on rich a tiny bit more strict.

Tax based on income with no limit.

Lower income tax for low income and increase tax to corporations in small increments

Raise it for anyone who makes more then $350 000 a year.

I want to say yes but at the same time if I was rich I would say no

Yes, and lower taxes for people with lower income and less money

Increase taxes to cooperations and overly rich Steer away from tickle down economics

just the filthy rich by a bit. like hundred millionaires
