I'm not asking for any services. They're being shoved down my throat, whether I like it or not. I'd gladly pay for alternative providers if I had the ability.

If people don't want higher taxes, then reduce services. It's simple, but not politically viable. Don't say that you should raise taxes just because there is a revenue shortfall. That only encourages the bastards. Edit: It's not inexplicable to lower taxes. The average tax rate in Canada is 40% including all taxes. That is insane.
