It was dumb of Harper to promise not to tax income trusts, and it's good he broke his promise. Income trusts are stupid. In Canada, trusts don't pay tax. So companies just started calling themselves "trusts" instead of "corporations" and so stopped paying corporate tax. Ridiculous. Even worse, only the biggest companies in Canada could do it, because of the legal costs of setting up an income trust. Dion is better than Harper, but his promise to restore a big, pointless tax break for Canada's largest companies is probably enough for me to vote for the Greens.
