Notley and the NDP like to say “it’s only a 3% tax hike on businesses”.
If Notley wins Alberta will be home to the largest business tax increase any state or province has seen in nearly a decade in the U.S. and Canada.
What more could a premier do to scare away jobs?
In the past few years 10 jurisdictions in North America have changed corporate taxes. Nine lowered them. Only New York Stat raised corporate taxes, and did so by 0.75%.
Notley’s 3% increase, a 38% increase overall, would be the largest business tax increase anywhere in years.

The same people that tweet this nonsense always have no problem when Trudeau wins with 32% of the vote and less than the conservative candidate.
Reality check: With voter turnout dropping to 43%, just 17.8% of Ontario’s total eligible voters actually voted for the Conservatives, who now have 100% control of the province for 4 more years. If that doesn’t tell you our democracy is broken, I don’t know what will.
