TOPIC: Social Issues and Politics

The city was Dauphin in Manitoba. The project was called "minicome".

As for the taxes, the idea is to tax the rich. Minimum wage earners pay a lot less (percentwise, since we still have some sort of a progressive taxation), and that would stay as it is, or (by a separate proposition, to combat the current crisis), wouldnt pay tax at all, just the compulsory contributions for healthcare and pensions.

Now, high earners may move away... On the other hand, they might not. We used to have very high taxes on businesses, and there were few cases of them moving out.
