We are so complacent. I live in Calgary and just shopped yesterday at Walmart for a family of five. First off no luxurious buys here just typical weeks worth of survival food. We spent $300.00. Gst on that bill $2.86. So what this shows is that most groceries are already exempt. So if i spend the same every week for 1 month that is $1200.00 I save $11.44 with the GST holiday. On food that is already inflated due to the carbon tax and about to get worse when the tax goes up in April. This does nothing for anyone Sooooo frustrating
After ruining the entire country in just a decade. The suspects bribe you in freebies hoping you will forgive and forget about the past. This is like beating up a person and trying to make up for it by buying them a coffee. Insult has been done, you can’t rectify it.
Means nothing to me. He is reducing the costs of "essentials" like meals out, toys and booze while keeping prices high on non-essentials like housing, utilities and gasline. Turdeau is a joke!
So some people are getting a cheque that will barely cover a weeks worth of food, if you are a family. We will probably end up owing a large sum of interest on these payouts, as usual. There is a break on GST for a few months which only covers savings on wants and not needs. Then we will have a 19% carbon tax increase just as our GST is reinstated. One can’t help but wonder if the liberals are trying to use the GST as cover for their carbon tax increase.
$250 cheque is the perfect amount to pay the Christmas shopping credit card bills due in January and February because 2 months no taxes on Christmas gifts and restaurant meals should be $250 per family , right ?😂😂 Taxpayers are amazed how accurate in mathematical calculations from the Federal Liberals MPs in their calculated vote buying equation! 😂😂😂 Taxpayers are often surprised in each of the vote buying spending news ....
It means absolutely nothing. For two months, it will mean slightly smaller receipt as the space will not be used for the GST marker. It will change the price of nothing. Prices are already inflated and bloated for the Christmas rush. Pennies mean nothing in a $100 bill world.

Don’t spit on my cupcake & tell me it’s frosting
It means that my share of the national debt is going to get a little bigger.
Does this man understand the carbon tax negates any savings from the GST "break"?
Hopefully none of this passes and the government won’t have to borrow more money that will have to be paid back with interest.
Temperature GST change could be a headache for accounting: increase operating costs and chaos.
It's like getting your kids Christmas present then giving them the present & credit card bill to pay with interest

Don't hold your breath waiting for $250, this has to go through parliament before anyone gets anything.

Not a darn thing..more debt in the long run that's what it means
Keep the money and call an election instead. That would actually help Canada.
