F3600 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I’m supportive of subsidizing companies to move in, eventually they sunset and a company has put down roots. MasterCard is a good company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might think the federal Conservatives, who added $125-billion to the federal debt since 2008 and will add another $21-billion by the end of March, might be shy about unnecessary expenditures. Alas, thats not the case, as it appears Prime Minister Stephen Harper and his colleagues would rather hand out cash to corporate Canada instead. In just the first two weeks of January, the prime minister announced another $250-million for the Automotive Innovation Funda federal subsidy program that provides the auto sector with taxpayer cash for research and development. Then the prime minister announced $400-million for venture capital, mystifying those of us who thought it was fine to let private-sector angel investors risk their own cash, not that of taxpayers, on high-risk start-ups. The recent taxpayer gifts are but the tip of the corporate welfare iceberg. Between 1994 and 2007, $202 billion was disbursed by all governments across Canada through subsidies to business. Whenever politicians wish to shower taxpayer money around, predictable excuses are offered up in defence of crony capitalism. and this was from ONEWAY FRASER https://www.fraserinstitute.org/article/harper-governments-crony-capitalism I remember the outrage Edited February 1, 2020 by 1trailmaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frenchy Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I mean how stupid do people have to be to actually believe what they are being sold here? [Stares at Fail trying desperately to light a wet doobie in a windstorm] Mastercard had NO intention of coming to Canada as per their own people: Quote Ajay Bhalla, Mastercard’s president of cyber and intelligence solutions, said his company was not looking to expand its complement of R&D centres until a meeting at the World Economic Forum last year with Mr. Bains and Ian McKay, head of Invest in Canada, a federal agency devoted to attracting foreign investment to Canada. “We were of course very interested” in Canadian technology, talent and the country’s education institutions “but we did not have a plan to set up a whole cyber and intelligence centre out of Canada,” Mr. Bhalla said. But Mastercard just acquired a cyber security company in Vancouver 3 years ago so obviously it was on their radar as they were ALREADY in Vancouver. That aside, the $500 million dollar investment figure thrown about is laughably unrealistic given the headcount they are estimating over the next 10 years. It's like fail gobbles Liberal press releases for dummies whole without a sober thought on the matter... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
