Thank your public health care system. Someone has to pay for it.

COST OF LIVING! Housing, taxes, insurance, food, utilities, clothes, toys etc... EVERYTHING in general costs more. As far as 20$ of it going to taxes, I imagine part of that $$ goes back into the health care system and social services.
If you guys really want something to talk about, the price of a Coffee Crisp down here compared to up there is INSANE!!! Easily 3x as much

I believe the taxes on loose tobacco was more than cigarettes. Pipe tobacco is ludicrous now too.
I have definitely noticed fewer teens lighting up their calabashes across the street from their high schools!
Tobacco addiction is up there with some of the other classic drugs ie difficulty quitting. The government permits the sale and taxes this product knowing full well that it is dangerous and addictive. They do not offer/fund free smoking cessation products to all smokers.
It would be interesting to see a class action law suit against the government.
