six cents to eight cents per gallon this increase if made effective means that the average motorist driving 10000 miles in a year and getting 18 miles to the gallon out of his car will pay over 10 ad ditional to the gasoline tax of 3333 which he is now paying figure it out for yourself from six cents to eight cents a gallon means this t s 10000 miles per year 3333 15000 miles per year 4998 20000

average car owner is not a rich man he does not drive a new car out of 582212 passenger car registrations in ontario in 1938 but 48561 were new cars yet the automobile owner is the most heavily taxed

provincial revenue was 90321896 99838595 the provincial taxation on gasoline t6049857 17644164 18318171 this figure is based upon the percentage increase in gasoline consumption which percentage figure was obtained from government sources t coupled with license fees in 1930 this tax represents 30 of the provincial revenue since the motorist already bears 30 of the taxation burden of the province it is manifestly unfair to increase the burden provincial revenue from the taxation of motor vehicles ontario 1936 paid by the public in gasoline taxation 16049857 paid by the public in

fund charges etc subsequent to 1936 it is now proposed to secure an additional 6000000 from the motorists of the province through an increase in the gasoline tax from six to eight cents per gallon while the motorist as a citizen has been willing to assist the government in problems of administration a limit must be set to the burden imposed upon him if you as a car owner are content to assume the added burden represented by a 2cent increase in the gasoline tax there is nothing you need do your silence will he interpreted as consent if you arc not content and wish to place yourself on
