SALT - Deals, Unbelievable

[August1991]

In Canada, we cannot use our provincial taxes/municipal taxes as a deduction on our federal tax form.

Some provinces allow this for property taxes.

Because of Duplessis, Quebec has a bizarre federal tax rate.

Trump? He's a dealer.

[August1991]

In Canada, we have equalization payments.

In the US, you have SALT.

Hah! If I wrote off my provincial taxes I'd have to add the $75 PST rebate to my gross income. If I wrote off my property tax it would only be $100.

Hell, let us write off 100% of any medical expenses first instead of that silly 3% of income limiter. Wife had over $4500 in claims one year and only got back a couple hundred mote.
