Answer: True. The Sugar Act was one of the first taxes that enraged the colonists.

Explanation: The Sugar Act, also known as, American Revenue Act consisted of taxes that were supposed to pay off the British debt from the French and Indian War. This obviously displeased the colonists which in return proclaimed that no taxation should be added upon them until they had representation in the Parliament.
