Man, I am so tired of governments trying to buy me off. I’m fine with you taking my taxes, just spend it well. When I see transit projects taking a decade to build or health care services clawed back to make up ‘budgets’. Make me feel like my taxes kick ass and make Canada better.
What we really need is Trudeau relief.
This should get Singh to his pension.
And just like that, the Liberals have bought out the NDP to sweep their refusal to hand over the documents under the rug
[Trudeau expected to announce temporary GST break on some items, NDP says](https://ca.news.yahoo.com/trudeau-expected-announce-temporary-gst-035812359.html)
“That suggests the NDP may help the government break the gridlock in Parliament that has stopped legislation from moving along.”
As the Canadian dollar tanks. Smart move.. Larger deficits, more money printing, and in turn higher inflation for the thing you’re trying to “fix”…
If you havent started converting to US, I’d start yesterday. The loonies been on a plunge, and it’s gonna get worse.

GST relief… you mean the thing that’s paying the 54.1b interest and only the 54.1b interest on the national debt? That GST? Interest rates still at historic lows, glen?
So we already can’t afford to service our debt without a deficit; lets murder some of our revenue instead of not spending on useless social programs. That way, the people getting our money can also avoid giving any of it back.
Yeah, because it’s that damned GST that has made everything so damned expensive since the pandemic…
Lol what a joke. Kill your stupid carbon tax.
How about this… Gentlemen… Just call the election already. He’s the most hated PM ever; take a hint and resign.
>was informed by the Liberal government late Wednesday their announcement would include temporary relief on the GST for children’s items and pre-prepared meals, but not the monthly bills
This is not going to go over well with canadians.
So… some people are going to save $10 a month.
Meanwhile the average working class canadian has seen their cost of living increase by like $1000 a month.
What the fuck is saving $2.50 on that pre-cooked chicken going to do for people?
Axing the GST would be a shameless bribe according to people who have been willing to say absolutely anything to trigger an election where they will axe a different tax.
People: Axe the tax!!!!!!
Gov: ok, let’s axe some tax
People: nooooo don’t do that!!
Please make up your mind……
lol sweet, another 200 bucks or something for the year after I’ve paid about 100k plus into it in taxes for the year.
He really thinks Canadians are goldfish
Temporary relief. Indicates they know how spine breaking taxes currently are but they want to be forgiven. Drop tax rates permanently and then we can talk about if this government has learned anything.
What about you stop wasting our tax money on things like foreign aid, buy back legal guns, useless woke researches,drug decriminalzarion and focus on building real economic driving engine. Note that Tim Hortons or gender study drives economy growth
I don’t even buy pre-prepared meals. Is that it for groceries?
Give money to the disabled!!! They are drowning .
GST is a regressive tax, so im totally fine with this despite the deficit. Its mainly a tax on the poor and should have died a long time ago.
