GST: Yay Or Nay?

The GST is back in the news! After abolishing it in 2018, the government has now announced that they might consider a reinstatement. So first, we revisit previous interviews we've had with our experts, to get a sense of why it was so unpopular, what a reintroduction would constitute, and what needs to improve when it comes to implementation. Then, we hear from our listeners on whether they are for or against the GST.
