Sugar Tax and Sunday shopping



How many of you listen to the Rick Howe talk show? The Rick Howe show was quite interesting last week as a sugar tax on sugar drinks  have been discussed . Rick supports this tax on the drinks to combat it. As I listened to the show, while going for my jog at HB studio, I remembered at one point in time , Rick was strongly opposed to Sunday shopping. But now he is out shopping on Sunday , like it's another day. Yes sadly it is , because we let it be this way. Now my point about a Sugar tax and Sunday shopping. By allowing these stores to be open illegally on a Sunday, because the courts never ruled on Sunday shopping and it was a binding plebiscite, we opened the doors to other problems. It's another day people for you to shop, it's another day for you to buy sugar products that are obviously addictive. This is why a ban is necessary . These products are put at eye level, it's to entice you to buy more of these products. We are living in a society, that thrive on our addictions. It's a profit maker, this is why we have so many people over weight.  Yes you can be over weight by going the other six days a week. By allowing stores to be open another day , has only added to the problems we have today in our society. Are you outraged? If you are not outraged , you're not listening. Are you outraged Rick Howe? Are you listening Rick Howe? Are we awake in Nova Scotia? How can we continue to let our province continue in that slippery slop? Families no longer bond and have family dinners together. Families go out and buy unhealthy foods. At what costs? Our health care system and we all pay for it. Our families who should be on top of our lists, not the bottom. It's the religion of business who's destroying life as we see it. Wake up Canada...Wake up Nova Scotia.
