Huronia Calendar -- See Page 21 Township of St. Vincent in the Meaford area of Ontario has come up with a con- troversial _ resolution, which by the way members of Midland council refused to en- dorse Monday night. The township is requesting all Canadians to _ stop paying sales tax and Tax revolt? merchants to refrain from collecting these same taxes. According to the township: 'provincial sales tax at three per cent was introduced into Ontario, ostensibly to help pay the cost of our medicare program. "It was increased to five per cent and is now seven per (cent - the biggest single con- tributing factor to in- flation, in my opinion. "We have gone the full cycle and are now being asked to pay privately for future medical and hospital charges. Do we hear cries of outrage from the Opposition? What Opposition? ? "Tax Bulletin 75-3 It could come to that, (page 4) from the Department of Revenue states: From time to time, the vendors are faced with a customer who refuses to pay tax. Because the purchaser is always liable for the tax until it is collected, under these cir- cumstances the Branch will undertake collec- tion directly from the Blizzards leave calling cards at Saint Marie Home Health care taught by St. John Ambulance can help families deal with the emotions surrounding illness and death as well as the skillls to care for a family member at home.

Liberal and provincial Conservative, have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, that they are totally incapable of wisely spending the revenue pried from the taxpayer in a coun- tinually increasing volume; and further, because I believe that taxation is theft, I urge all Canadians who would like to halt in- flation to stop paying Provincial Sales Tax across the counter. "J further urge all one township councillor believes merchants to refrain from collecting taxes. 'We have here, all the ingredients for a Boston Tea Party, Canadian style. We can teach our government and all politicians, both in- cumbent and aspiring, a lesson they will never forget. Call it "The Tax Revolt" or the Paint Pot Rebellion'"' as you will, but I urge all concerned Canadians to JOIN IT." Signed --Eric .
