This collection of essays presents analyses of the question from the economist's point of view. The essays fall into three groups. In the first of these, the authors examine the taxation of the mining and energy industries and show how the method of taxation chosen by different levels of government -- federal or provincial -- may be "non-neutral," distorting private output and timing decisions. The second group consists of careful case studies of the effects of particular natural resource taxation measures; the third focuses directly on the question of provincial and federal entitlement to resource revenues. Although arguments are advanced for linking the right to tax to the responsibility for management and control (at present vested in the provinces), most of the contributors would agree that the provinces should be regarded as stewards and bailiffs, not landlords; as rent collectors and managers, not "rentiers" and owners.British Columbia Institute for Economic Policy Analysis series ;3.Revenue sharingCanadaCongressesIntergovernmental fiscal relationsCanadaCongressesNatural resourcesTaxationCanadaCongressesRevenue sharingIntergovernmental fiscal relationsNatural resourcesTaxation336.2/78/3338Scott Anthonyauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.141174Scott Anthony1923-1471707Victoria Conference on Natural Resource Revenues(1975)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780545403321Natural resource revenues3731116UNINA
