I'd also like to see it hidden, but that's a whole other issue.
Of course, but the government doesn't like to give up revenue.

Hidden tax is a good way to go, but I don't think that will fly here. Europe is like a revolution in common sense pricing. Things are priced at rounded #s (1 euro, 3 euros, whatever), with taxes included. None of this $2.99 plus 12% BS.

In general I'm in favour of this tax. It simplifies things, however the Liberals pulled a total 180 on this one pre and post election, that's something to be mad about.

Just wait to see how happy the restaurants are when the NDP () win the next election and jack the minimum wage to $10+
