Lambton-Kent Middlesex Conservative MPP Monte McNaughton has launched an online petition in hopes of overhauling Ontario's Estate Administration, or so-called "death tax".
McNaughton says the $143-million tax is "a government cash grab on grieving families".
He's calling for a cap on the tax, and to make estates below $50,000 and charitable donations exempt.
