Crybaby Sheep

Way back when the federal government instituded anew progressive tax to replace an old antiquated manufacturing tax, this change became known as the "GST". The finance minister claimed at the time it was revenue neutral and canadians shouldn't be upset with a new tax nor believe this was just another tax grab. I think for the first time in political history in this country there was wide spread anger and the Liberals lead by Jean (speak out of both sides of my mouth) Chretian ran a campaign of repeal and in the next general election they nearly wiped out the tories as they went from a super majority to just 2 seats in the house of commons. The 2 were Elsie Wayne and of all people Jean Charest the present leader of the province of Quebec and also now a liberal, and strangely we still have the tax todayso i guess roughly 15 million people all had a brain cramp on election day.


as anybody with an operating brain could have told you that no government can live without the revenues this tax brings in To soften the blow we recieve a cheque every quarter like a crying child being given a ice cream a pat on the head and told to run along, sadly we've done just that. As Yogi Berra once said it's deja vue all over again circa 2010 again the lying liberals at Queen's Park are instituting a new tax for Ontario which they claim will only equalize the tax rate that other provinces already have in place to work in conjunction with the federal tax rates. The "HST" has been around for a long time just not here in Ontario, the only people speaking up against the tax incease yes i said tax increase are the opposition at Queen's Park and as all good parties when or if they gain power will likely find a reason not to change back.

McGuinty and his band of thieves in an effort to soften the blow is bribing the people of Ontario with cheques over the next year, $1000.00 to families and the grand sum of $300.00 to single suckers like me. I hope your now getting the picture because it seems till this goes into effect nobody either knows or cares. Just wait for your first hydro bill or cable bill or if your buying or selling a home once this takes effect you might feel differently as that one time payout won't look so enviting. We fell for this scam once shame on you , we fall for this twice shame on me. One economist report says that it will cost a family of 4 an additional $1800.00 a year due to the "HST" my math isn't the best but a one timee payment of $333.00 x 3 payments in one year will never offset the increase in expendicher from now on.

Now it's to late for a revolt by taxpayers as the province has hired away hundreds of revenue canada employees to process the "HST" so it appears were now stuck with something were either to stupid or just don't care about as long as it doesn't effect your day to day lives and boy will it ever.

See you soon....
