Was the British parliament justified in placing new taxes on the colonists after the French and Indian war?

No because after the wars, King George 111 was left in a huge debt. So he taxed the colonists without their consent (opinion)on it. He created high taxes and acts ( such as the Iron act) to help pay HIS debt. IT wasn't fair because the people risked their life during war and now they have to pay the high taxes the king issued!!
