Revel in the joy of our grand tax holiday! There will be no sales tax on thousands of items, to boost your solstice spending power! Video games, so long as you don’t buy them the normal way. Some beverages, depending on size and ingredients. Pencil crayons, if they’re bought as part of a package that contains blue ones. What spectacular benevolence!
I’d rather not have a lame attempt at bribery for votes …
Plus all services are being slowly dwindled because money is tight…so they make it tighter?
No tax on a few trinkets of garbage is stupid and I refuse to participate in this and vote buying scheme brought to you by the one and useless, useless doug ford.
Heck, a smart thing to do would be continue charging tax, AND demand that all stores display the tax INCLUDED in the cost of goods. County still runs properly and doesn’t need to rely on driving offenses to increase plus people can see how much things actually cost prior to buying for once
For clarification, this tax break is on a federal level.
The dwindling services you speak of are either provincial or municipal, but not federal.
The tax break has nothing to do with those services.
But I agree that we can do better, and I’d love to see “all in” prices displayed as a default.
