It’s wrong to automatically raise the taxes that Canadians pay on beer, wine and spirits.

Taxes already account for about half the cost that we pay for beer, wine and spirits.

Your government implemented an escalator tax that will automatically increase the federal excise taxes on beer, wine and spirits every year.

Automatic and hidden tax hikes are undemocratic, unaffordable and unaccountable.

We the undersigned call on the federal government to axe the escalator tax on beer, wine and spirits.
