DESCRIPTION:The Fall Economic Update contained a handful of tax measures de
 signed to keep Canada’s businesses competitive with those of the United St
 ates. But what of the myriad other aspects of our tax system that might al
 so be due for change? Does the system adequately address the changing natu

  other countries? Are there ways to make the system less complex?\n\nJoin
