Show Notes

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is joining the fight against Newfoundland and Labradors’ legal bid to increase federal equalization payments.

We’re getting into this court fight to stop provinces from wasting even more taxpayers’ money through equalization.

Plus, New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs promises to launch a renewed court challenge against the Trudeau government’s carbon tax.

All that and more in this week’s Canadian Taxpayer Podcast.
