Abstract:  Although these bulletins, written in anticipation of the promised tax reforms, have been overtaken by the announcement of Finance Minister Wilson's tax change package, their analysis from the point of view of the poorest segment of our society should still be valuable. The titles of the bulletins indicate their range: 1) What to Look For--and Look Out For--in Tax Reform 2) The Changing Tax Pie: Trends in Federal Tax Revenues 3) Why Your Taxes Have Been Going Up: Partial Indexation 4) Why Your Taxes Have Been Going Up: Surtaxes 5) Why Your Taxes Have Been Going Up: Loss of the Federal Tax Deduction 6) Why Your Taxes Have Been Going Up: Changes to Child Benefits 7) Why Your Taxes Have Been Going Up: Consumption Tax Increases 8) The Hidden Welfare System: Exemptions, Deductions and Credits and 9) Tax Expenditures: Who Gets What.
All these bulletins are written in clear language and illustrated with numerous charts and tables. They are available for the asking from the National Welfare Council.
