The feasibility of a Canadian federal sales tax / by Abraham Tarasofsky, Department of Economics, Sir George Williams University.: Z1-1962/1-1-6E-PDF

"The case for levying the Canadian sales tax at the retail level, in preference to any other, rests fundamentally on the accumulated defects inherent in that other level that would thus be avoided. Ideally, a single-rate commodity tax, unless otherwise specifically intended, should be "neutral" as to the spending patterns of consumers and investors"--Introduction, page 1.
