So you are saying a corporate tax reduction is equal to the government writing a cheque to a company? Using that model, the government is subsidizing every medium to large company in Canada. If that is how you feel, I will agree with you that all corporate taxes should be higher and there should be no tax breaks for any industry regardless of where it is headquartered. But do not try to tell me that this is exclusive to the oil industry because that is simply false.
