- Sun Editor-in-Chief Adrienne Batra and Sun political columnist Brian Lilley and Warren Kinsella discuss the recent federal budget and say the Trudeau government says its not a problem if doctors are leaving Canada because of the new capital gains tax changes.
Foreign trained doctors are not stupid, they will go to the US as well.
The good ones will leave. The sht ones will stay.
@@samadams7224hence the reason for our health cares current state. 😱
There are also so many hoops to jump for new doctors to come here. Many have applied and many have left because of it.
@@tinalaursen8993 Yup, like how the good RNs left during COVID Vax mandate.
If I was a doctor I would do the same the minute I became a citizen
Why should doctors who dedicate years of their life, lost sleep, high stress, owe massive debt, stay in this country to get treated like this?
They are being treated like our veterans.
They won't. The offers to get them elsewhere will be huge. Competition is fierce
No foreign doctors
Dustbin Trudouche doesn't understand because he's a silver spooned trust fund kid. Getting a doctor is no problem for him.
He was on a permanent vacation before he got into politics, and he'll be on a permanent vacation when he's gone.
@@carlyatkinson4307I guess you want to wait YEARS to receive treatment then.
Increase capital gains tax to make the rich “pay their fair share” while Trudeau gave himself a raise to the point of having the second d highest salary of any leader of a democratic nation
And thats not including the money he stole from us and has tucked away in offshore accounts
He still pays that tax
If he got paid for performance. He would be owing us. Not that I don't think he does anyway. Just get out of the way Justin
@@katieh3236???
@@katieh3236 Yeah sure buddy, everything is squirreled away in a trust fund. Totally different than Joe Smuck pays, if the dick pays anything.
I honestly struggle why anyone would come to Canada voluntarily right now.
If you claim you are a refugee, everything is free..
They can come here, claim refugee status as economic migrants, and get access to our handouts.
@@misty4483 Some can even get Old Age Security.
@@misty4483 yeah well they're going to be homeless 🤷♂️
People are leaving.
The Dr shortage will balance itself! FJT Jal NOT Bail for Trudeau and Singh!
The good ones will leave. The sht ones will stay.
They’ll import more witch doctors .
That's right, whatever doctors are left, I'd literally stay away from them as much as possible
No doubt Canada will.lower the standards for foreign doctors to gain entry and license to practice .The short sightedness of this governments has no limits .
Her flippant reply was disgusting. How dare they push doctors out of Canada! And, what doctors would want to come here now? This is appalling. We need a non-confidence vote now! Contact all mps and tell them to vote no on this budget!
She dares to do so because she has a family doctor unlike us
@@ruiyangao9255 I am lucky enough to have one, but I am also one that waited months to see a specialist. But, when I finally got care, it was great. Every doctor and nurse were wonderful. It's disgusting what this budget will do to Canadians of all stripes.
Yes indeed Christine. When she needs a doctor she may find the cupboard bare.
It's not just Doctors, it's Farmers, business owners and everyday people who have worked hard to accumulate enough Capital to be able to retire and to leave their children something to help them get through life. Who has the right to take that away.
Only a Communist government
This is why wealthy people put all their assets (property, vehicles & funds) into trust funds. Taxes on the $$$ are only on income and other distributions from a trust. Trust beneficiaries don't have to pay taxes on returned principal from the trust's assets. I make well over the max marginal tax rate (in my province (including fed) 52,5%). I've been pushing for more taxes on this issue for decades. Shareholding is often rewarding to the wealthy as taxes have never been recuperated on that initial value (investment). Therefore, they were only taxed 33%, whereas the average "schmo" invested their hard earned money (after paying their share of taxes on it initially - 14% - 52.5%) and then we're taxed only 33%.
You do realize that the lowest income with an investment will pay more in taxes (prior to this modification)? It resided at 14%+33%🤯.
This is what was unfair about this. There should have been and 2 tier system in place.
The one proposed at 66% and/or another that included the value of the shares within their respective taxable income year ((yearly income + value of shares) - maximum marginal tax rate) but continuing the 33% on any dividend, commission.
This is hurting only those that haven't really participated into our pension fund. My province saw it's own one appear in the late 70's. So a person like my father that retired in the late 90's has barely any funds to retire with as much of his wealth is tied up in assets.
the rule against perpetuities (trusts) were repealed in Canada, the income tax law makes it unlikely for perpetual trusts to become commonplace; unlike USA, UK, France, Germany and countless others.😢
I've always been against shareholding but pro (termed) bonds. Lower interest rates but even lower tax rates all the while keeping the owner in charge and benefiting his workers and not passive shareholders.
As a family doctor myself we keep on being devalued by our provincial and federal government. We were called heroes a couple years ago now we are greedy rich elites. Then you wonder why nobody has a family doctor. I left doing comprehensive family medicine because the government has forced us into a failed business model. I hope everybody enjoys their private nurse practitioner clinics. The government is telling you that anybody can be a doctor. My decade long training tells them otherwise.
I'm so sorry you've had to endure this. It's mind boggling what Trudeau has ruined in 8 years.
welcome to the club , theyve been doing that to tradesmen for years
Remember the same thing was done to the truckers. Those doctors still practicing who did not stand up during covid, we warned you the government would treat you the same as the truckers.
The lack of insight and a type of jealous envy from uninformed politicians and the public who believe that all doctors are wealthy and overpaid is idiotic .
@@heatherjones9773 this is the correct comment. Humans in 2024 have all the foresight of a turnip
I am a Canadian trained doc. Left Canada this year. And no I did not leave for the US, the world is bigger than that fortunately !
its not just the doctors leaving its everyone with a brain
Older people who have children and grandchildren will stay.
Personally, I will stay because Canada has been my family's home since the 1840s.
Trudeau will not force me out of my homeland. Besides, my bills don't come close to what a millennial or a GenZ has to pay these days just to put a roof over their head.
RUBBISH
The Trudeau Liberal Party’s utter contempt for the citizen’s they’re supposed to represent is absolutely reprehensible! The disdain and contempt I hold them in is well earned by their arrogant disdain for the people who pay their wages. We should be able to fire them for nonperformance of their duties!
Yet die hard Liberals will still vote for him while at the same time complain about him, wake up, vote for the man that can do the job!
Well said
It is all part of the WEF plan. Get used to it. They will continue as they are directed. If you don't like it, you get a chance to vote them out in 18 months.
Massive immigration, not sustainable. Housing costs, unaffordable. Carbon tax, hated right across the country. Capital gains tax, stripping our doctors of a retirement plan. Higher interest rates on government debt, no more money for health. How much more damage has to occur before Jagmeet pulls the plug
Doctors are not stupid. What incentive are offering Doctors to locate here. You just told them you intend to tax their retirement plan
I always knew the NDP would destroy healthcare in Canada. They could stop this, but they won't.
Very deliberate move by Trudeau and Freeland, to chase more doctors out of Canada, make life more difficult and unhealthy for Canadians.
It amazes me how many people are enthusiastically in favour of this ridiculous tax. The average “peasant voter” has no clue about how to build a business or anything else beyond living hand-to-mouth. They would love nothing more than to see all the doctors, small businesses, farmers and everyone who’s worked hard for what they’ve accumulated to have it confiscated so they the peasants can fight over the proceeds. They’re not interested in doing the work to earn any wealth but they’re sure interested in shaking down those who have. I have NO sympathy for those people.
I wouldnt blame the "peasants" as you call them. Every publiv institution has failed the vast majority of people- schools dont educate, healthcare doesnt manage peoples health and government doesnt properly govern. We have among the most educated in the world living in Canada and yet most are not contributing the maximum talent becausr they stuck behind screens, drowning in taxes and suffering under mismanaged social supports. Thats how the "peasants" end up hating anyone with more than them. Its a simple trifecta of constant, unending f*#,ery.
PERFECTLY SAID!!
I think there are a lot of young people who have been indoctrinated to think that communism is a better system.
My son came home from school one day when he was about ten telling me how wonderful communism is. He told me he was being taught it by his teacher. The teacher was probably indoctrinated in university. This was about six years ago.
The envy of socialists translates into outright theft of others income.
So true, just like the _'housing crisis'_ they are all waiting for people to lose their homes thinking they will go on the market at fire-sale prices and they will get a home cheap.
What the average person fails to understand is that professional corporations is how professionals (doctors and others) save for their retirements. Unlike teachers, and other government paid employees, we don't receive juicy pensions that pay multiple times more than what we contributed. Let's see government workers figure out how to manage retirement if it wasn't done for them!
Exactly
The average person doesn't care as long as they have Timmies, hockey, and Door Dash.
Trudeau has divided Canada.
Trudeau and MPs got a 4% raise. Seniors 75 and older got 10% raise. Seniors under 75 got nothing.
Some provinces must pay the full rate of carbon tax. Quebec is special and pays a reduced rate. Some Atlantic provinces do not have to pay the carbon tax.
Trudeau is considering giving Muslims Halal mortgages - interest free mortgages.
New Immigrants can get Old Age Pension for life. They can even move back to their country and still get OAS.
The men that robbed Toronto Airport of gold are walking around - free. But some people in Freedom convoy got locked up for a year and some people had their bank accounts frozen.
Canada is a mess!
People who have worked hard all their lives are now being punished. Is this capital gains tax a ploy to take people's minds off the useless catbon tax which I feel will be increased again very soon?
You feel the carbon taxes will be increased?
I can't predict the future, but I know the carbon taxes will definitely be going up on April 1st, 2025, and every year on that date until 2030.
If Doctors are leaving who else is leaving? Sad times in Canada.
The PMO thinks that they could play the politics of division on this one (the poor hating the ‘rich’), but I’m
glad to see people are not buying it because they know who made them poor.
"Rich" in Trudeaus economy just means being able to buy groceries without anxiety.
The problem is the government, not the doctors!
Where is the Canada that used to be a great country ??? 🤔🤔🤔
Little justin and his clown caucus. That's what happened.
Trueturd, his daddy , Freemouthpiece and a few others have been doing their worst to totally f*ck it up.
It’s much better than USA ..if not happy go there
It was invaded by their definition of "diversity and inclusion".
I live in a small town in Southwestern Ontario. My family doctor retired and wasn’t able to get a replacement. We now have a nurse practitioner clinic. Is there anyone in the federal government who is capable of their job? They are so out of touch with Canadians.
Thanks for voting for Dustbin Trudouche. You guys in Ontario need to do a little research before you mark your ballot.
@-FreeAlberta- HEY! RURAL ONTARIO, except the north NDP, voted CONSERVATIVE!!! Do NOT clump me in with the GTA!!!
All Canadians should be fed up with the amount of taxes we are paying, the wallet is empty.
1.3 million new Liberal voters need a place to live and food.
This is why you're paying so much in taxes.
@@-FreeAlberta-I agree wholeheartedly with your user name and comment. Cheers
Enjoy your legal marijuana, and communism...
Its true ? We are turning into communism and most don't realize it .😂
"Not good or bad"....they need to do the math or talk to someone who can calculate the damage in this budget. Such a toxic lib/ndp government.
My G.P. retired in 1999, I haven't had one since. I have to rely on Medical Clinics. We were told that Old Stock Canadians will be replaced and it is happening. This just one promise that the Liberals are actually fulfilling.
You remember that line too eh?
62, born and raised in Canada, paid over a million in income tax over the last 30 years and no doctor. Instead, they just want me to hurry up and die and they'll be happy to help me out with that with the MAID programme. What a wonderful country Canada has turned out to be.
They told us straight out what they were going to do.
Once we are all gone, who is going to keep the lights on in Canada?
I guess whoever is left will fight over our table scraps.
“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits”
Stupid
You can’t fix’s stupid !!
I’m 100 % ready to vote ☑️ asap
People who make good choices and are very successful must be punished for their greed.
Trudeau wants to get rid of capitalism. This way, we're all dependent on the state for our survival.
Turdeau and Jughead need to be removed and placed in prison for treason against the Canadian People. Do we now, all agree, that we need a recall procedure to remove politicians that get carried away like this. We also need an elected Senate where we can hold senators accountable for backing up tyrants like this.
100%
Canadians already decided they did not want that. The Reform Party was going to bring all of that, including MP pension reform, but Canadians chose the establishment instead and were bribed with their own money, as usual.
Totally agree couldn’t have said it better myself.
@@robertcarducci3807 Do you personally think even a Pierre majority in next election will make a big difference or no? Just curious if you're sold on him or not, I don't know enough about him. Thanks!
@@Kenny_G Don't feel too proud about Canada. You are about to find out why Canadian voters should never put morons in power. PP is not going to be able to fix this easily. The country is in for 2 decades of hardship and misery as we try to fix the trail of destruction that the soy boy has intentionally created while he increased his own net worth to more than $100 million. All on only $400,000 per year. Go figure.
If doctors could make more money in the USA why would the foreign doctors come here? Wouldn't they just go to the States?
Yes
Those that could legally would. ..... that leaves the balance of the undesirable ones for us.
What have Trudeau and Singh done that has made things better for Canadians? Why would they change now? Who didn't predict this when Trudeau was first running?
It hits Canadian farm families
Indeed!
I'm fed up too, anyone else?
But I thought the great replacement was just a conspiracy theory?!
So was the "first living brain-donor" - but Judas Turdeau walks among us...
Frightening how so many of the so-called conspiracy theories have and are continuing to come true!
Liberal/NPD must go!!!
Vote conservative!!!
There will be no more Canadians left soon.
Canada is screwed with a capital F.
Dear Canada...i don't stand on guard for thee anymore...and i wont until we elect a government that has integrity and moral values that favor the people of Canada.
You WILL not get that with Pullover nor conservatives ..
@@lynda4661 well if thats the case then the future of Canada is royally frickin screwed
Let’s not forget the keep your mouth shut directive during Covid not to mention the loss of nursing staff !!! Karma can be cruel……
Who would want to work here?
Investing 42 million $ in healthcare is a better idea than giving it to the CBC…
They just opened the doors for more taxation for everyone.
FJT
Yup FJT and “Its” whole crew of insider lefty Bolchivic filled 💩💩💩🦄🦄🦄🇨🇳🇨🇳Lib/NDP mafia style GOVERNeNT! NOW!
Maybe the doctor's don't understand they they are making money with the Carbon Rebate!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Nice one!!!
One disaster after another this must stop.
I simply don't understand how raising tax on the wealthy will help the younger generation to be able to afford a home. Is the cost of building all these new "affordable" homes coming down? Interest rates coming down? Stealing from the rich to give to the poor? Somebody please explain.
Trudeau is the wealthy and he is speaking like it is a class much above him. The reality is that this capital gains is charged when you sell property, mutual funds and by the sounds of it , leave your home to your children. It is actually impacting the upper and lower middle class , not the rich as they have tax shelters and trusts like Trudeau.
Would if I could, but I am not stupid enough to slither down to the moronic level of the pm and so called finance minister.
Neither of them is qualified for their job, but what liberal is.
I am using lower case rather than the correct upper on purpose, they do not deserve the respect.
Sick of seeing doctors with accents I can't understand
I'd take that over my current situation, not that poaching doctors from other countries that needs them is ethical.
They are also burdened with the accents of patients they can't understand and have complex medical conditions that require far more time and resources. FACT !
Expect that to be even more of the norm in the future.
I'm sure our standards will lower to allow medical staff from other countries easier access.
I just wish they'd put the guy who speaks the best engrish at the drive-through.
Our Healthcare system is completely broken
Imagine that you were able to a “pop” from a vending machine because it’s “free”. Then you make your choice and you wait for four hours for your selection to be announced. Then you have to wait another couple hours for the dispenser to give you a ticket that says the pop you want is only available from this other machine. You go to the other machine and it tells you the wait will be 6 months for your pop. All the while there’s another machine right beside you that you can put your money straight into and the “pop” comes out right away but nobody is willing to use it because the other one says “free” and it’s been plugged in since the 60s. This is where we are in Canada.
Exactly, 1/4 million debt, huge rents while they pay the debt from student loans. I had a young doctor early 30’s in downtown Vancouver, he is leaving Canada because he cannot afford a home in Vancouver.
Similar story in Squamish.
I am frustrated Canadian. I no longer recognize a lot of my City because as a immigrant I am not them and I get shunned. We work and pay taxes. I have to wait 2 hours or more for a prescription refill, I have to choose what not to eat this week because of prices. I no longer can have a lot of flowers in the summertime which is my hobby because the prices are ridicilous. Forget taking a holiday. Why am I trying so hard just to live?
As a Canadian, we don't dislike immigrants. Most immigrants are good people. It is the immigrants who commit crimes or violence that we don't like. We are afraid of people who don't share our values or come here to hurt us or protest about something that is not a Canadian problem. If you are a good person, we like you.
1) go to London Drugs.... never waited more than 20 minutes to get a prescription filled. 2) wander around your city and note where they have recently planted new flowers then under the cover of darkness dig them up and replant at home. Troubling times call for creative solutions
@@DirtyDog995..😅😂😂😂 you've got me laughing so hard. 🤣
We’re selling our tiny rental house. It’s the cheapest in North Vancouver. Some developer will buy it and put up a $3M house. How is that going to be affordable for anyone?
It's just another policy from this government that affects so many more people negatively than what they tell us it does. So if more doctors leave, then it affects millions of Canadians negatively, eventually.
The question now is would it possible for the conservative party to reverse all these unfair capital gains laws come next elections
Should be able to, afterall truturd will be gone.
On behalf of the United States, we appreciate the donation of trained and experienced providers and nurses. You can the lawyers though. We're good. Thanks again.
I’m not even a doctor and if it wasn’t for family I’d be in Florida by now.
Just wait until the start taxing capital gains in the primary residence.
We are all fed up. But where do we go? I don’t believe the US government is any better.
I’ve never even seen a Canadian trained doctor in small town Sask.
Just another reason among do many as to why we need a new government now !!!
Went to my dentist yesterday here in Calgary & he is disgusted with trudeau & his policies too ….We need an election asap
More people who will “Owe” Justin…..
You will _owe everything_ , _own nothing_ and most likely _be unhappy_
I received a letter from my foreign trained doctor from Egypt that I need to find a new doctor. The agreed upon term for him to practice in exchange for coming to the prairies and funded by tax dollars to leave Egypt is over and he is going to Michigan now.
Rechie has the political acuity of a kumquat
this is what my friend doctor says he is heading to Texas if nothing will change in this country shortly ..... and this is not only doctors lots of people packing bags and waiting next election.
Why work in a place that pays you less and takes more of your money?
#TrudeauMustGoNow I haven't had a doctor for 3 years. The Liberals are clueless on this issue. If they think it is so easy getting foreign doctor replacements why haven't they done something? We've had a shortage for a long time.
Considering he is super wealthy, but I. Sure he has figured out how to keep his wealth safe
This is what equity hiring gets us. These liberals have zero concept of what their bs budget will affect.
Farmers incorporate too.
Big surprise the budget is disingenuous
It also seems to be non-inclusive and racist
All of the good doctors left during the Covid jab heist.
It’s a complete slap in the face on so many levels.
Qualified physicians out, malpractice claims in. ☠️
This is an aim on the middle class. I have a house and a cottage. Im 70 yrs old, and when I pass, i leave it to my kids. They will have to pay capital gains on both. Im was born and raised in ontario, worked hard all my life, and hope to leave something to my family, not to freeland and trudeau. Dam criminals
same here. And last time I checked, we purchased our house and cottage with already taxed money that we could scrounge out of our pay cheques. We are NOT the ultra wealthy. We are just hard working Canadians. I have personally worked 5 jobs at 1 time to get myself ahead in this life and sometimes just to be able to afford to feed my kids and keep a roof over their heads. They need to go. If they don't go, I am going elsewhere.
It was a panic move by incompetents... and totally predictable. None of this is surprising and many predicted, way back in 2015, that their foolishness would be their end.
This government would mess up the Last Supper
They forced nurses to leave Canada in the 1990's due hospital closures and layoffs. I kept my job by a hair. Most of these nurses never returned to Canada. They let them pick their shifts, helped them get their degree in nursing if they were a college graduated RN and probably had signing bonuses. If we wanted to get our degree part time in Canada , we had to use our vacation and organize our own replacement nurse. Maternity leave in the USA was only 6 wks and I do not know if that has changed.
I had a doctor leave his practice to be a lawyer and two doctors leave Canada. This was happening 20 years ago.
When I saw this I couldn't believe it. If people still support Trudeau there is no hope
So we are going to lose our good Canadian family doctors, for foreign doctors?? Doctors that can't even speak our languages properly? This Government is out of control!! I'm leaving with my doctor!! Leave Canada to the foreigners! Texas, here we come!!
Question...Have all the doctors and nurses that were let go due to Covid mandate's gone back to work? If not maybe you should ask. Or will you be branded as a Fascists for asking or whatever else the Stoogeworks in Ottawa want to brand you?
Re hospital staff , at least in Ontario, they still can not work unless they have two Covid vaccines. It is the same for new hires. After numerous documented adverse affects from COVID vaccines, it makes no sense for this. They did not stop transmission. Also there are many auto immune diseases described as rare also developing.
@@bonnyc392 Thank you Bonny for that answer. Many people however are still un unaware of this. I am glad to see that you are not one of them. Wishing you and yours well.
Family doctors have not had a raise in ontario matching the cost of living increase since the NDP reduced their income by 16.6%. Doctors may not strike and per law must pay an organization to negotiate their annual pay decreases.
The Minister needs to be fired!!!
I question the credentials of these replacement doctors.
Another reason public health care is an issue. If we had private hospitals, you might get more competitive in terms of getting docs to stay here
cant get a hip surgery that why jt
All this trouble for what you said about his mother running off with the Rolling Stones.
Canada already has too many foreign Doctors. Not racist but a practical issue. I am from Newfoundland half our doctors here can’t fully understand us, especially our seniors, and we can’t hardly understand them. It is a recipe for miscommunication and disaster.
Just when I think the Trudeau gov cannot make another dumb decision…………
It was the governments idea, so clinic's wouldnt cost so much to the taxpayer
Well done.
How about push the Liberals in Ottawa out of Canada and we keep our doctors and nurses.
and push the NDP (both federal and provincial) out of Canada too. Tax and spend; tax and spend...that's their modus operandi.
Not just doctors.. Several of my skilled engineering and PM colleagues also left for the southern states recruited by US companies or were recruited elsewhere. Sad to say Canada isn’t a place where you can get ahead anymore. With the high cost.. you’d be lucky to even have money to retire thanks to this Radical government.
I'm pleading with the doctors to stay until election. This will be gone. My experience with many foreign doctors are missed diagnoses, misdiagnoses or take a Tylenol. Please don't abandon us.
Is the Canadian government planning to bring doctors from Cuba? Yikes!!
Im loosing my GP,thats a major problem for me.This can needs to be taken out.
Everything this current government is doing, is making it worse for Canadians to live in this country.
Now they're attacking your investments. Many were going to use these investments for retirement. Sorry some of it's going to the government through more taxation.
The stupid idea that this is only going to affect the very rich in this country!! The trickle-down it will affect everybody eventually no matter what your income.
Time for a non confidence vote.
Why would I want to have a foreign doctor treating me when we already have Doctors who were born in and studied in Canada?
If a Doctor comes to this country from elsewhere, do they go through any amount of training to insure they adhere to Canadian medical standards? Not that we'll see many at all, at this rate. Just go to the US.
P.S. what the government shows doctors earning is the money they receive but they must still pay rent, heating, carbon tax, office supplies, medical supplies, Mal practice insurance, college fees, training fees, ... Take the government number and divide by 2 to get closer to their income. The government decided to pay the pharmacist up to 3 times as much as the doctor for certain things. I guess that is because the pharmacist is less qualified. They should give the doctors the cost of living increases since the NDP stabbed them in the back with the 16.6% pay reduction and caused the flood of doctors to leave Canada. Did you know that the doctors pay the bill for the medical costs of immigration in Canada? There is always no money available and that is the reason we cannot afford to ever meet the cost of living increases for the doctors.
How does Trudeau square wanting small rental properties rather than massive housing corps building massive buildings, but then introduces a budget that should make anyone whose would contemplate becoming the landlords of small buildings.
