We got new taxes? Man where are you getting this from?
A tax by any other name......is still a tax. I would suggest you actually do some reading.......if you are "crafty enough".
Umm...I'm asking what the flying fuck you're talking about. We got a GST cut, and the Toronto Star (a leftist rag) went on about huge tax cuts for the wealthy and such...here
http://www.thestar.com/comment/article/272037"With surpluses this year and next projected to average an astounding $16.5 billion, Flaherty has committed almost $5 billion to tax cuts this year and almost $60 billion in cuts over the next five years. Of this, $34.2 billion will come from cutting the goods and services tax from 6 per cent to 5 per cent. An extra $11 billion will come from personal income tax cuts, and $14.4 billion from corporate tax cuts. Also, $10 billion of this year's surplus will be used to pay down the federal debt."
Is there a tax hike that I'm missing? I'm not trying to be rude, but I want to know a real news article. I only found one from 2 years ago, which says that taxes weren't cut as much as advertised.
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/ ... login=true"The federal government's recent budget chopped personal taxes by about half as much as was advertised and actually lowered take-home pay for many Canadians, a new report by a leading economist says. The report, to be released Tuesday, says the budget will mean personal tax cuts worth about $9.5-billion over the next two years, when compared with current rates. By contrast, the government said in its first budget earlier this month that it had cut personal taxes by $19."
Now I don't really know about the take home pay, since honestly its a two year old article
