I went into a fit of rage yesterday when I got a letter from the Ontario Ministry of Transportation.
On the same day at the mayor announced a $25M 3 acre park I got a bill for the new Toronto Car Tax of $60 per year. This is on top of the Ontario vehicle registration fee. So the taxes alone just for owning a car (this is on top of the $2500 in provincial tax I paid to buy it just 5 years ago) are about $200 per year.
Then they decided to knife me even further by letting me know that now that my car is 5 years old, every 2 years I need to spend $40 and take it into a shop and wait 45 minutes so they can tell me it doesn't pollute past the standard. It's a 5 year old Japanese car with outstanding mileage, of course it doesn't! I'd notice if it does. Of course the cars that do pollute past the standard (those made prior to 1987) are exempt from this rule. 
What a con job. I hate this city and province so much. Worthless moneywasting mother****ers.
