How will the government pay for the increased spending?

There is talks of changing the Old age pension back to 67 years as Canadians live longer.

Talks of capital gains taxes on principal residences.

 

How about government workers pension qualifications change?

Our economy is closely aligned with the States.  To deny that is the stupid thing.  Harper got us through the recession in 08 very well, another thing you can not deny.  

As far as 5 years ago to now?  Ahh pretty much everything is twice the price, HST is applied to everything, some even after its already taxed. Its tax tax tax now, so I'd say we were better off 5 years ago. Better yet, tell me something that is cheaper now then it was 5 years ago

So can you answer my questions now?  Capitol gains and your friends??

Yes I have said this for decades, people here give credit for good economy to a conservative party but not to a liberal one.  I personally don't give much credit at all to Governments, they don't sell i-phones.  

Now having said that Trump got lucky with his timing just like Trudeau did with record employment and stock markets.  To say one person is responsible for all of this is just wrong.

 

You are paying twice the tax as 5 years ago?  where do you live?

I live in Ontario just like you. Tax is way higher, do you not think so?  Why do you keep dodging my questions?

I believe Ontario's tax rate is maybe second lowest in the country

 Gasoline is a steady buck - seems fair

 

unfortunately if you are in the top 1% you are getting hit from Provincial and federal taxes.

 

The almost doubling hydro rates last January has been noticed

Harper's magic balanced budget just 6 months before the election was great timing, from 10 billion just months prior to balance   

more lies from fail. Shocker!

His second last budget had a $5B deficit before he handed the libs a balanced budget but let's look at big picture shall we? In the aftermath of the worst recession since the great depression he reduced a $56B deficit to zero in 5 years. 

Meanwhile Trudeau inherited a stable economy, never had a recession and added $90B in debt in 5 years before covid. Impressive!  

 Economic incompetence the likes of which has never before been seen.

140 dollar a barrel or OIL compared to 30 dollars - tell me how this would have worked for Harper todays prices  

 

7.9% unemployment brought down to 50 year low just above 5% in 2 years - While Alberta continues with low teens numbers - those are good numbers.

If we counted our unemployed numbers like the USA does our would be 3.8% 

 

sorry the inheritance isn't that great compared to what he inherited - we have outpace USA on almost every account

employment 

stock market increase

total employment

 

but you see something different, you never post numbers or facts you just rant like a little girl

you don't understand the numbers and post factually incorrect information constantly, as above. I can't waste my time correcting you only to have you drool, stare at the screen, not understand it then post the exact same bullshit an hour later.

I figured, you rant deficit with no recession and that is your argument  

no worries Frechy the records are factual not fiction even if you deny all of them

 

how about 

Record business profits the most in history

 

are you denying 7.9% unemployment?  or just denying everything

Edited September 10, 20204 yr by 1trailmaker

unemployment will continue to decrease based on nothing more than population growth combined with boomers leaving the workforce in record numbers over the last 3 years. Sorry you are too dumb to understand the context of any numbers that lie so obviously beneath what is printed on the screen of the simple search you just googled.

big difference in OIL this is the reason Alberta OIL is over for now, there is no profit with low barrel prices ..

Our Government doesn't set OIL prices 

 

not sure how you can look at it any other way

you are dumb as fuck. More boomers retiring every year = low unemployment as they leave the workforce and many are not replaced. DUUUHHHH!!!!
