I have been wondering the same thing.  

People don't understand that when you give the government $100 in taxes that you don't get $100 in government "services" in return (new roads, schools, etc.).

There are a huge number of unproductive federal and provincial government employees that need to bleed their share out of the original $100 to ensure that only a small percentage is actually put to good use.

My guess is that there will be a a new Minister of Carbon Pricing starting up in Ottawa with thousands of staff and a nice new office.  I sure do hope that they can figure out a way to keep the new Ministry "Gender Neutral".
