They believe that by attacking perceived woes (immigration, social safety nets, women's rights, and the education system) that all will magivally become better for the average citizen.
They're addicted to the fallacy of the American Dream™ to the point that they don't see the larger picture, and again the oligarchy strengten its grip on a divided population, consequences be damned.
This is not the place to discuss this, reach out to the RCMP.

Keeping that elbow up with the fantastic Canadian wines and beers we have.
If God told you to bomb a country, then you have a serious mental illness.
From the Government point of view, it made more sense to let go a potential of 7B$ in revenue to save some Canadian jobs. It's less damaging to do that and lose some numbers in a spreadsheet than seeing jobs in steel, automobile and other sectors lost, which require more work to bring back.
Also, these kinds of tax are normally reflected in higher price to the consumer, which doesn't help when there's no viable Canadian alternatives to turn towards to. What is Google, Netflix, etc going to do if they get taxed a part of their Canadian income? They'll increase the subscription cost to make up for it.
Not saying that I agree with the reason, and I'm not happy we lost that, but there's a bigger picture.

A supermarket chain named Metro in Quebec (Canada) did a test-run for more than a year then scrapped the project.
They decided to add more self-checkout machines instead..
We had a similar system at the supermarket I went, however it was some barcode reader you had to pick up at the entrance, but the system itself was nice as you could pack as you went, and when you were done you could just scan the QR code at the self-checkout terminal where it would upload all the stuff you scanned, then all you had to do was pay.
No need to fiddle with the temperamental self-checkout system, I'm sad it's gone :(
