Inside Access: Smokes, Smugglers And Lost Tax Revenues

Description

Conference Call with Anindya Sen, Professor, University of Waterloo

How should policymakers factor in the principles of behavioural economics when considering increases in tobacco or other "sin taxes"? Understanding the extent to which higher taxes result in the consumption of contraband tobacco is of key importance given the significant increases to tobacco taxes that have been recently implemented by the federal government and the provinces of Ontario and Quebec.
