But did you see any tax relief from the recent federal budget? The majority of survey respondents, 67 percent said no.

 

Did you feel the affects of the 2007 federal budget and the targeted tax relief?

If you said no then you're among the 67 percent of respondents that took part in a recent Canadian Taxpayers Federation poll. Just 2 per cent said they received a lot of relief.

But Palliser Member of Parliament Dave Batters doesn't buy it. "I think there's a lot of people that will benefit from the tax relief offered in Budget 2007 but they haven't really realized it yet. Something like the massive tax saving for seniors because of pension income splitting won't be realized until people fill out their taxes in 2008."

By the way, income tax for 2006 is due at midnight tonight.
