@AroundBirding for the sake of Canadian democracy, Poilievre really should go. he was a good foil for Trudeau but the federal gov't needs some serious adults in the room from all the parties given all the stuff going on in the world right now

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@acoyne Poilievre should sit this one out maybe

@Pick_A_Lane @GadSaad @MarkJCarney well most of the taxes you pay are collected by the province or coming back to the province from the Feds. guess you've never seen a doctor before, gone to an airport or driven on the Trans Canada highway, visited Banff or Jasper, or crossed the border

@dogmatta @fette_a @yyc_heathe66554 @ABDanielleSmith true. the Alberta NDP would be considered conservatives in BC and Quebec lol

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@UnkleTwisted @GrandpaKen05 the effective tax rate on someone making $70K is like 15% in most provinces. even if you spent every after tax dollar on material goods and gas and included the 5% for CPP/EI, you would only get to like 25-33%. just ask chatgpt or do the math yourself

@Chapman1234h @Veronica45309 @GadSaad @MarkJCarney Colleen, now deduct the cost of your education, the roads you drive on, police, healthcare, fire protection, etc

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@Pick_A_Lane @GadSaad @MarkJCarney i'm guessing you didn't benefit from the tax dollars used for education ...

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@GadSaad @MarkJCarney either Gad is really rich or he lacks basic knowledge of the Cdn tax system which uses a graduated income tax brackets. the top combined rate in AB is 48% and is paid only on income above $370K. the average Cdn prolly pays 15-25% of their income in income taxes

@AndrewGreba86 @Cliffor18175753 maybe he was too ashamed to say he was from Alberta given the crazy separatists running around there?

@PaulStewartII biggest non-story out there

@prairieinvest HBC was killed by greedy American private equity that loaded the company up w debt, stripped out the real estate assets and ran the company into the ground. what Trump wants to do w Canada basically - take the resources and starve the rest

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@Marina35690107 @ViciousPred4592 @prairieinvest a large part of the Hudson's Bay Company became Canada ...

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@ViciousPred4592 @prairieinvest that's insane

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@acoyne if AI is going to take over the world, all gov'ts will need a stake in them so the wealth gets shared with the public. taxation along is not going to be enough

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@Jason___YYC how to tax the cities w/o taxing the rural areas ...

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@JasonOnTheDrums worst than a separatist, this Dreeshen guy sounds like an American puppet working on getting AB annexed by the US

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@CRAStoriesAlt @GaryScotianNS Carney has cut taxes - remember the carbon tax? - and has cut the federal gov't workforce. your definition of the centre is what most people would call the right

[Duchess of Pleasant Piazza @Naliabytes]

@turfmaster912 @validmavericity Smith, Ford, Polievre were just as bad as Trudeau
