… cancelling scheduled corporate tax cuts (set to drop to 15% in 2012), would seriously harm Canadian workers and hamper the economic recovery. Taxing business revenue has the effect of extracting a portion of the profits generated by companies. When such taxes are raised, it pushes companies to invest elsewhere. We therefore lose the investments that could have increased our productivity. As a consequence, it is workers who in practice bear the costs of raising corporate taxes.
