Honestly dude where do you get that idea? For the last ten fucking years the liberals and NDP have been saying that they want TO CUT taxes for working and middle class people. Sure, if you make over $250k a year, you might see you taxes go up... Like 5k a year? Boohoo :"( do you even comprehend how much 250k actually is in real terms?
$250k comes out to $148k roughly after taxes (if you live in Ontario).
THATS JUST OVER $12K A MONTH.
After tax, so idk how anybody even in this housing market we have should be having a fucking problem affording life and having a good time. You could literally have a $4000/ month mortgage and be in the "affordable" range. Get fucked
I just did :)
Damn, you people are the real snowflakes :'(
Lol dumbass 💀 I think you need to do some research. How could you be so clueless about how much taxes are in our country and call yourself and adult 🤡
Literally tell me what was incorrect about it. Just let me know what was wrong. Because idk maybe you make that much but are dogshot at managing your finances. Time to grow up
All I know is the NDP propping up a minority liberal federal government saved me 2000 a month in daycare costs. So I sincerely doubt that nothing would get done.
I wouldn't even be considering a 3rd child if that program wasn't there.
Nothing constructive? Like a hundred billion tunnel under Toronto to bypass the 401? Or how about a hundred million to remove some Toronto bike lanes on some streets that isn't even anywhere near capacity instead of worrying about streets that have actual gridlock? Or selling off important farmland to make only a few thousand homes in the middle of nowhere instead of actually building homes that are close to things like actual stores or work places? Or building a bypass for a bypass that isn't anywhere near capacity over the same farmland because the courts blocked the previous sale of them? Or the hundred million he was going to give to Musk to give free internet to a handful of rural communities when they could just buy it themselves if they wanted internet? Or how about selling the Ontario Place to a spa company when Toronto spas doesn't even make a decent profit already, or that they didn't even operate an actual chain of spas that they said they did when they bid for the spot? Or how he's tearing down the Ontario Science Center because of 'leaky roofs' to make parking lots when Torontonians managed to fundraise enough money to permanently fix the roofs at zero cost to the government? Or how about the province-wide bribe he made just this winter right before the Ontario election? Or how about his trip to the states where he spent most of his time on CNN complaining to Americans about random crap on the taxpayer's dime? Or how he had one decent idea in surcharging electricity to the US, only to fold when an American offered to talk about talking about the Trump tariffs?
Exactly where has Ford done anything that wasn't a massive waste of money since he was first elected?
