  1. This premier thing is a load off bullshit. Fly all the Premiers to Paris to have a great party? At that flight length, they all will be expensing business class. No real targets yet, but hey, let's fly all the Premiers in, stay in expensive hotels and to charge the taxpayers for all of it. Complete and utter bullshit. The LPC at it again, wasting taxpayer money.
  2. No, their respective finance ministers kept the banks more regulated than the US. I don't give Chretien or Martin that credit.
  3. I've given up. I tried to engage in this again today, but I've decided to do what I decided to do, which is to give up. There is no sense in talking to people who don't believe that saving $10K is possible (to dump into a TFSA). Sure, most don't, and I agree, but just because others don't do it is a valid reason for some on here to not do so. And the audacity of some to ask members to post their T4 on a public forum? What am I, stupid? I offered already for those that doubt it to have me send an email to the mods from my work address which will bring an end to the skepticism and not one person has taken me up on that offer...let alone ask me to post my T4? I'm done on this topic.
  4. My parents paid $0 for my education. Because you chose to attack me Personally, that's all I'll answer to your question
  5. You clearly don't know how investing in a TFSA works.
  6. Do the math sunshine. Sure I may be getting a smaller tax break by not donating but I'm still financially ahead at the end of the day.
  7. Uhh no. I don't feel like I'm entitled to it because right up until the LPC was voted on, I WAS entitled to it as it was passed.
  8. You hate Harper, we get it. I hate that pathetic PM designate we have because I believe the people who think he will drive change to Ottawa are delusional. All that man child knows is how to spend money, and lots of it.
  9. History is far too kind to PET. interest rate at 21% for a start. The NEP... The fact that anyone likes PET is insane. Justin's dad was a swine.
  10. Back when I was student when TFSAs were introduced, I was making around 40k. I maxed out my TFSA. I never drank coffee from Timmies, never ate out. I saved my money. If you choose to spend yours and then can't max out your TFSA, then that's on you. Canadians are crappy savers who love debt. That is not how I was raised and just because others don't love frugally.... Most people can max out their TFSAs, they simply choose to live a lifestyle that doesn't permit them to do that. Don't penalize me for maxing out my TFSS though. Again. Entitlement.
  11. There. You got me. I couldn't resist. Trudeau is helping the middle class by offering a few hundred bucks in tax breaks. Your post has nothing to do with that.
  12. Contribute nothing? Like by paying taxes for people like you? Typical garbage.
  13. To me that's shallow. My BMI is in check, but if I make it to 40 without suffering some sort of cancer, that'd be impressive. I don't think people are that shallow.
  14. http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/tx/ndvdls/tpcs/rrsp-reer/cntrbtng/lmts-eng.html RRSP is tied to income.A family does not have to pay down mortgage or pay for a car. Those are optional extras.
  15. Do people really care about people's BMI?
  16. Oh yay, personal attacks. I had maybe partially regretted my good bye post, nope, not anymore. SEE YA!
  17. I give up. I'm outta here. I thought I'd stay on to chat post election, but the entitlement from the left shocks me This sums it up. The middle class likes to talk about how $ is there to help the poor vis a vis tax breaks, but in reality, the tax break incentivizes travel and vacations. You entitled bunch who like to get on your soap box disgust me. It has been a useful discussion though for me. Anyways, i'm out, the internet has never truly bothered me and it won't, and like all of you say about harper, don't let the door hit you on the way out! It won't. My last words on this are...if you want more money, go work for it. The fact that you guys believe that a vacation is something you deserve to have disgust me. I'll continue doing what I'm doing, knowing full well that some believe what you believe, and so the "guilt" that I have for changing my behavior post election...well I won't feel that anymore. Cheers, enjoy MLW, it's been great posting, i'll wait until the next election to post again. Have fun, godspeed, and I will continue making sure that my tax dollars are not clawed by the government, as much as I can. And you can be damn sure that i'll make sure my pocketbook wins, at the expense of others. Cheers.
  18. Again, I really would like to learn why. I would pick Kenney over Raitt, because of his ability to communicate. However, my understanding of this subject matter is very poor. I've heard people of MLW hate Kenney, but I haven't read a valid reason why yet. (valid in my books)
  19. So it's OK if a left leaning party wins most of the time than a right leaning party?
  20. I simply explained my situation. It's simply pointless convincing someone who thinks making $X is too much (lol) and that the "rich" should pay. People really need to take a look at the 1% in Canada vs the 1% in the US. Did you know that someone in Canada that the top 20% or whatever is making $50k a year? That's just...sad.
  21. This discussion about women in cabinet and all that really annoys me. Find the best person for the job. Leave race, sex all of that crap out of it. The CPC leaders are pulling the same old sex card. I'm a young female chick so I should be able to lead.... Kindly **** off.
  22. And you're entitled to even 0.5% how? Yes, I read the article and still rolled my eyes. Even if it's 0.01% more than what they are paying now...the fact you feel you're entitled to it disappoints me.
