As summer fades away, we have a light topic for the Bar: some perverse - maybe macabre - incentives flowing from the politics of the USA's 'death tax'. See Too Rich to Live.
In case you didn’t know, Canada - so far - has no such tax. For starters, one wonders: what is the fundamental motivation behind such a tax? and 2) is there a plausible explanation for its existence in the Land of The Free and its absence in Our Home and Native Land?
