What if we all stopped paying the government for one day?
It's come to my attention that a lot of government people are spending the tax payers money on needless things because they simply can. Now I'm asking the community, what would happen if everyone stopped paying these people for a period of time(a day, a week, a month)? Would they open their eyes to see people have the power to overrule corruption? Or would they simply fight their own people into submission?

I have no information about Canada, but in the USA every businessman is a tax collector. "Stop paying the government" would mean you don't go to work and you don't buy groceries or anything else. Such efforts have been proposed in the past, but nobody noticed. People really expect the government to straighten itself out, all by itself. The people gave all their responsibilities to the government and they don't ever want them back for any reason. Even when (not if, but when) it becomes impossible to support the regime any longer, they will still whine about how fine it used to be.
