Defends Canadian workers,
Sorry but I have always been unimpressed by this argument. We shouldn't keep things just because they create jobs (see: the coal industry). Workers can be compensated and/or re-trained.Defends Canadian workers,
better?
Legault and Sheer are okay having thousands of Federal Employees lose their jobs.
Even Singh is also okay with Federal Workers losing their jobs.. so Social Democratic
I'm confused... do other provinces not have also provincial income tax filing?
Nope, they all have one single Income Tax Form to fill (Federal)I'm confused... do other provinces not have also provincial income tax filing?

there is the gouvernment of Canada logo at the bottomhttps://www.canada.ca/content/dam/cra-arc/formspubs/pbg/t3sk/t3sk-18e.pdf
I call bullshit.

I call ALL the bullshit.
The primary difference is the federal government also administers the provincial forms at tax season. I know that's how they do that here, at least.
In this case... why should Canada oppose Quebec consolidating them like other provinces too? Or they're just butthurt because QC wants to take more control? Seems petty.Nope, they all have one single Income Tax Form to fill (Federal)
Hence why I stated that the federal government administers the form on behalf of the other provinces. Each form has a "Government of" logo for the respective province in the header, as well.
Correct. It's annoying. Not too bad when you use software that kinda automates the process, at least, but still stupid.I think what he's getting at is that it's a single filing for all provinces except for Quebec.
For example, when I submit my taxes here in Alberta, all of my forms are entered as a single filing which is then processed by the federal government.
In Quebec, there is a separation of the two, I'm presuming?
Pretty sure we have the TD1 form? I send my taxes in, so I could be wrong
I use uFile to file my taxes. It's one form but could be just the software that makes the whole thing transparent. It's just one long form as far as i'm concerned.
I don't know many people who actually do their taxes by hand any more.
Sorry but I have always been unimpressed by this argument. We shouldn't keep things just because they create jobs (see: the coal industry). Workers can be compensated and/or re-trained.
If consolidating income tax filing benefits all Québécois in the long run, I don't see why shouldn't want it. If the added value is poor, then sure, maybe no need for a reform. I admit I haven't done the full research here, but if the sole reason to keep separate filings around is to keep federal employees employed, then it's not a compelling enough reason. Spinning this as "they want people to lose their jobs!!" is intellectually dishonest.
Quebec did it to themselves. Alberta and Ontario are the only other provinces to do something similar, but they only do so for corporate taxes. And now Quebec feels it has a right to administer federal personal income taxes just... because? I agree, it's not a smart play, but getting involved in personal income tax filing at the provincial level in the first place with what I can only assume is a make-work job program wasn't a smart play, either.Correct. It's annoying. Not too bad when you use software that kinda automates the process, at least, but still stupid.
Or, why file taxes in the first place? The government already has all the information it needs... all that should be required from the citizen is to submit any information and/or adjustments that the government wouldn't have in the first place.
Europe, I believe, doesn't require people to file.
BububububuBUT IT'D COST JOBS!Oh I agree with that. It's a convoluted process telling me to duplicate information that they already have.
It's really stupid.
Entirely possible that a previous QC administration fucked things up, yeah. But it doesn't mean it shouldn't be fixed now.Quebec did it to themselves.

But the fix is having Quebec fall in line with the RoC instead of taking over the Federal collection and forwarding those funds up.Entirely possible that a previous QC administration fucked things up, yeah. But it doesn't mean it shouldn't be fixed now.
This!But the fix is having Quebec fall in line with the RoC instead of taking over the Federal collection and forwarding those funds up.
Oh, I agree. I just see the solution as folding up some of the jobs at Revenu Québec and transitioning the ones that are needed into Revenue Canada employees, to put Quebec in line with the rest of the country. But as outlined before, that's not going to happen because no one wants to give ammunition to their political opponents.Entirely possible that a previous QC administration fucked things up, yeah.

Does this include abolishing jobs that don't really need to exist? ;)Long term solutions (even though they are not attractive and electorally enticing) is always the best way of governing.
that sounds like Maxime Bernier ;)Does this include abolishing jobs that don't really need to exist? ;)
Well, it's possible that they do, but don't care that much. It sure as shit wouldn't be an electoral issue for me lol
The Ford government is planning to overhaul children's autism services by taking money away from regional agencies and putting funding directly into the hands of families to choose the care they want, the Star has learned.
Major autism service providers have already been informed of the changes that will also address the massive wait-list of 23,000 children and target money and services to those under the age of 6, which research has shown to be the most crucial time for treatment.
I mean, it's fine to talk about governing with political expediency in mind, but painting job losses as being an equivalent opinion to the worst federal leader in Canada, even in jest, is the kind of scare tactics that make that political expediency happen.
Ford recently backpedaled on opting out of student fees for transit passes because those companies complained that it would deprive them of a substantial ridership and revenue base. I don't think he will do the same on autism therapy.
Families with autistic kids can still pull up their own bootstraps, right? Or so the current provincial government would lead us to believe.The fear is they will give less money directly. So while it cuts a lot of the red tape, families will get less. Especially older kids.
People will still go into debt going all out for private therapy, they just won't be doing it while waiting for public funding.

I dont even think whatever she has to say will sound good on the surface. Nothing else theyve come out with has. The closest they came was buck-a-beer, and look how popular that was.They've been pulling themselves up by the bootstraps for a while. It's a 2-4 year waitlist for treatment based on where you live, so many people borrowed and went heavily into debt waiting for funding getting help for their kids(the younger they are the better).
There's some conference today from Lisa McClod. I don't trust anything they do/say. It will sound good on the surface but once you look deeper it will be a shitshow.
With Singh having to campaign in this byelection, the result is that we're seeing some opening moves of the 2019 campaign early.
Québec already has pharmacare (sorta) so they're gonna have to come up with something sexier if they want to come back from the dead here.
Fake Story about Jagmeet Singh Pops up on Vancouver Courier Site, Others
No, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh does not live in a $5.5-million dollar mansion resplendent with ornate staircases and murals painted on ceilings. But online visitors to the Vancouver Courier and other sites were fed that fake news today.
The facts about how that happened remain murky, but what's clear is that a major online ad network whose CEO boasts of "disciplined processes" to prevent "tricksters" can be used to deliver false and potentially damaging information to thousands of voters during a high-stakes election in Canada.
The Tyee noted this morning an ad located below a Vancouver Courier news story. The ad showed a photo of Singh over the headline: "Jagmeet Singh Shows off His New Mansion" and in small type the words Attorney Cocktail.
Clicking on it took the reader to an article on the site Attorney Cocktail headlined "13 Super Luxurious Celebrity Houses – They Surely Know How to Spend Their Fortune."
