   Hahahahaha !!  'The Tories lower the overall GST rate' ?!   They did that once   
   before and then   
   foisted the new HST - which covered items the provincial taxes never did   
   before.  You will   
   NEVER see a tax reduction under a rightwing government . . . . never.  What   
   you will get is a   
   promise on the one hand, and then a grab for your pocket from the other hand.   
      
   Remember Harper's "If we are elected, I will remove the GST from fuel taxes if   
   the cost goes   
   over .85 cents a litre'?   
   What's the cost per litre in your area now - and tell us when your GST was   
   removed.   
      
   NOTHING this government says should be believed.
