The finance ministers of Germany, Spain, Italy, Portugal & Austria are pushing for windfall taxes on the war profits of oil & gas companies. Why not Canada?

Reminder: a solid majority of Canadians have supported windfall profit taxes on oil and gas companies’ historically high profits for years now.

In the first month of the US-Israeli war on Iran, the Canadian oil industry made after-tax profits in excess of $6 billion -- $4 billion more than it pocketed the month before. It is well past time Canada applied a windfall tax on these excess profits: https://www.policyalternat Show more
