You make a decent argument why we should probably alter the tax in regards to social reasons.

But politically I don't think even the seemingly popular NDP party will be willing to gamble on taking a hundreds of dollars out of home owners pockets on a election year.

I really don't know if there's a lot of low hanging fruit that NDP hasnt picked but certainly seems like there some real ripe ones.
