🔱 What is the meaning of life in Canada?
There are many versions of this story out there. What can we do? Call Ghostbusters?
Kaitlin earns a great salary in Alberta - roughly $258,000 a year. She pays $90,000 in taxes in all payroll taxes:, federal, provincial, EI, CPP.
Every time she fills her gas tank it costs $25 in fuel taxes and HST. Car insurance is off the charts. Car repairs cost a fortune.
A $20 bottle of wine to enjoy and relax? Another $10 in taxes and levies. Dinner? A rare event now. $6 in HST.
Every single month she pays HST on her phone, internet and streaming services. She pays $6,000 a year in property tax just to continue living in a home she already bought with after-tax income. Part of every insurance premium is insurance premium tax. Hidden in almost everything she buys are corporate taxes, commercial property taxes, development charges, licensing fees and tariffs that businesses simply pass along in the price.
Grocery costs are off the charts and draining her wallet.
She can’t afford a vacation. Airport Improvement Fees. Security charges. More taxes. And the thought of moving to Mexico is on the list down the road but then again maybe not. The Exit Tax in Canada will mean living in poverty forever.
So she invests in a RRIF. If it grows, she pays capital gains tax. If it pays dividends, she pays dividend tax.
Then one day, she gets a cold that develops into pneumonia and she can’t get a doctor’s appointment. The line up at emergency makes her turn around and go home. She doesn’t wake up the next day. She has died.
And then the blinds go up.
Her family discovers there isn’t technically a “death tax”. BUT in Canada - her estate is treated as though she sold almost everything the moment she died.
Capital gains becomes taxable, final income tax is due and in Ontario, her estate pays probate fees before her family receives what’s left - if anything.
Her money was taxed when she earned it, taxed while she spent it, taxed while she invested it, taxed while she owned things and taxed again - one final time - when she died.
But don’t worry. She did take a stand.
Kaitlin refused to buy American products in any store she frequented because she was protesting the tariffs the U.S. charges on their imports.
After paying unbelievable high taxes and government fees to live in Canada on a daily basis, she was proud to take a stand against someone else’s tax policy: Her Legacy!
So … what does the government do with all of this tax money? Is it laundered and used by politicians and dispersed as “foreign aid and investments” never to be seen again?
When the government runs short - they print more money lowering the value of the currency and further reducing our capacity to live a good life. Taxed to death is not just a metaphor.
Will Canadians ever wake up to the truth? They are being robbed left and right.
“Taxation is on the rise. We do it to you not for you.” Lord Carnage
$52.5 Billion of Corporate subsidies were earmarked for EVs.
$15 Billion for Stellantis.
Corporate welfare, with casino-level risk, that just crumbled.
The Liberal house of cards just fell.
The $52.5 billion is higher than the GST & HST collected from ALL Canadians!
INSANE.

For years, they told us chemtrails were just a “conspiracy theory.”
Now, RFK Jr. isn’t just confirming that “crimes” are happening. He’s exposing exactly who’s behind them.

The Climate Change Alternative we Ignore.
When they start on this next panic push, keep this alternative solidly in mind.
Another variable is at play and they will not admit it. This will be a repeat of Covid oppression.

"Why in the world do we have anything to do with the World Economic Forum? That has got to end." Alberta Premier @ABDanielleSmith tees off on the WEF, plans to fire all medical advisors that assisted with the arrest of religious leaders in Alberta. WATCH: https://t.co/ox0OJGLAJk
With the farmers protest in Holland, it’s time that politicians start answering questions about “Net-Zero". Our government also has a net zero policy and we need them to state exactly how it will impact our us, lest we end up with protests like in Holland. https://t.co/oHEAlWaa5b
Tokenomics.
Crypto twitter throws this word around a lot but never explains it except "DYOR".
What's the secret that OGs and projects don’t want you to know? And wish you'd never find out as a newbie?
Here’s a simple guide to tokenomics for beginners.
So let me get this straight: liquid investment choices are either: (1) hold cash that is facing 10%+ inflation, (2) own stocks that go down 10% every day, (3) own tokens that go down 20%+ every day or (4) hold stablecoins that aren't stable and can be down 40% in a day
Human tendency to conform, especially when in large groups, is terrifying. Propaganda machines leverage this throughout human history.
The way out is to think freely, detached from the divisive narratives of the day that masquerade as universal truths.
This often feels lonely.
