Show Notes

Taxpayer win! Prime Minister Mark Carney scraps the digital services tax, saving taxpayers big money on their online subscriptions.

But it’s not all good news. All levels of government are shelling out bundles of taxpayer cash to host some games during the 2026 FIFA World Cup in Vancouver and Toronto.

We break down the ridiculous plans and highlight polling numbers that show Canadians in those provinces don’t want to waste money on these games.

Plus, we dive into why so many young Canadians are fed up with how much they pay in taxes.

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