Stop the HST on Gas

Target: Ontarians
Region: Canada
Petition Background (Preamble):
As of July 1st 2010, 8% tax will be added to a litre of gas through the Ontario government's new Harmonized Sales Tax. Few Ontarians know this and an significant increase of 8% in gas prices could precipitate a slowdown in Ontario's economic recovery.
It is nothing short of another tax grab at a time when cost of living is outpacing salaries and wages. The government should rescind the HST on gas. All Ontarians will appreciate its gesture of goodwill.
