Yep, Canadians seem to have incredibly short memory's when election time rolls around. Funny thing is, even when the fault of everything going wrong in this country, people still will not put the blame on Justin. He is clearly responsible for the demise of Canadians lives.
I think Trudeau’s idea to cut taxes for two months is pointless. The carbon tax will just take that money right back-and then some. It feels like a temporary distraction rather than real relief. I would rather see Trudeau and his worthless team cut!
Remove taxes on gas and energy. I could care less about this tax cut. Keep the $250 and get rid of people who shouldn’t be here receiving $224 PER DAY to be here.
Reducing taxes on junk food beer and Christmas trees give me a break. The $250 is only going to those that worked in 2023 as I am retired all of this means nothing.
This is only the beginning. The temporary tax break on some things and the $250 payment in April is the beginning of the vote buying. The payment in April will be 6 billion dollars added to the deficit and the debt since that money will be borrowed. Whatever the tax cut costs in lost revenue will also have to be borrowed and added to the debt. The last budget started with a 40 billion dollar deficit so they have now blown past that. There will be more spending coming as they try to buy votes going into the next election.
How can they cut taxes when they keep funding programs nobody asked for? Also, how are they going to pay back all the debt the country has with tax cuts?
This so-called 'cut' is an insult to Canadians - little more than a joke! On April 1st Trudeau will again be laughing his head off at us when he increases the carbon tax!
What a joke! I will continue to pay these taxes if Trudeau and Singh will step down. That would be the greatest Christmas gift to Canadians, that is desperately needed, to save our beloved country. The country that they want to sell out to the lowest bidder.
The CTF should launch a lawsuit against Politicians for them having control of their Pensions and Salaries. In no other business or activity does the employee (Politicians) have control over these matters. This is illegal.
This is stupid. A general consumption tax is about as egalitarian as a tax gets, and is something that gives government a consistent cash flow. While I am happy to lower the GST there are a ton of special interest taxes that would need to be eliminated first. The artificially high taxes on carbon products being a good example. Gasoline does not need to be this expensive, it is simply excessive taxation that makes it so.
Trudy can stuff his temporary tax break! We want an election for Xmas 🎄 as for Bagmeat that pathetic ignorant fool I hope and pray you don’t get that pension you have done nothing to deserve it!
Start a movement to donate the new $250 benefit to the Conservative Party of Canada ...and get 75% of it back on your taxes. Support Poilievre, and stick it to Trudeau at the same time.
It’s not enough he has400,000000 for green slush fund .We can,t afford it . He is corrupt . Half his fed cabinet also if he were in prison people would be able to feed there family,s .
So seniors who stopped contributing to CPP at age 65 but remain working won't get meager $250. Oh well so much for their means of determining who is working.
The federal debt calculator will be spinning faster than ever until election day. Trudeau will spend $1 trillion to stay in power and voters are too stupid to understand what is happening. After 40 years of work I am seriously thinking of leaving Canada. The taxes are being wasted.
Relief? Giving back some of my own money isn't a rebate. It was my money to begin with. This will cost us more money in the long run not less, it's easy math. Retailers will adjust prices to cover the loss and those prices will stay higher after February 15th and the tax comes back into effect. It's a scam.
Temporary Tax Relief, we need permanent tax relief shouldn't be tax on food, restaurant meals and home heating. We are overtaxed. We already paid taxes on the money we are buying food and meals with.
if gst is a big deal to people during Christmas, then they should be approaching Christmas with austerity. Turdoh is going it to keep the retailers from joining the revolt. We should be boycotting Christmas shopping and celebrating with the spirit of the season rather than with dollars.
Keep up the fight, CTF! Our federal government has only one way to lower taxes really: get smaller. That means fire workers, remove departments, and stop wasting money on dumb things like raises for MPs every year, and letting bureaucrats expense their lunches. They can pay for their own food on those salaries (and pensions and benefits). If they get smaller, they can make these tax cuts permanent. --> from a proud CTF supporter/donor. :)
Short term fixes don't get at the root of the problem. This increases the national debt. The inflationary carbon tax must be removed and is at least partially responsible for the high cost of living. Also giving $250 to those who worked in 2023 is giving it to people who need it the least. We have tent camps of homeless people who have hit rock bottom and have been unable to secure employment. The use of food banks has increased dramatically as the carbon tax is set to go up in April. This appears to be a vote getting ploy with the thought that voters have a short memory.
Christmas gifts ( 60 days tax-free in Christmas shopping and drinking ) for Canadian voters ? Or buying votes before calling an election in the Spring ? Canadian politics is quite predictable ?
150,000 a year earners should get nothing. The amount should go to those who really need it ( and thereby perhaps given more to low income canadians). 250 is what people leave as a tip when eating out...250 is what most canadians have to spend on food fir a month...next he'll tell us " to eat cake"...same response is likely.
Chump Change for Chumps. 10 months max until writ drop for fixed election date of 5 Oct or 169/338 MP's vote non confidence on 9 dec non confidence vote.
Crumbs for the peasants, while blackface enjoys his private jet,chef,nannies,free home, 400 thousand dollar salary, but it should help reduce his 12 thousand dollar monthly food bill.
the trudeau hope is that Canadians bite the cheese in the mouse trap even if they smell a rat; the hope is that after they win the election, they will deal with the heads of the five families permanently.
Please correct me if I’m wrong. He’s taking the tax off groceries, children’s clothing and alcohol, correct? Aren’t those things already tax free? Or, tax already included? Nothing is tax free!
I don’t care about the GST and the$250. Trudeau and Jagmeet can keep it,I want one thing for Christmas is to get rid of Trudeau and is puppets
Take the money and donate it to the conservative party and you even might be eligible for a political donation tax credit in the process
Hang on to the money you’ll need it right after the taxes return, Justin raises the carbon tax which increases the cost of everything.
Just drop the Carbon Tax it’s a failure and a waste no more WEF policies in Canada 🇨🇦
Time for an election 🗳️
Simple…”vote buying”
Yep, Canadians seem to have incredibly short memory's when election time rolls around. Funny thing is, even when the fault of everything going wrong in this country, people still will not put the blame on Justin. He is clearly responsible for the demise of Canadians lives.

To hell with tax cuts. Cut House of commons and parliament wages...and get us an election with the money you saved!
Getting bribed by my own money.
Time for an election now
Time to force JT out now
The time was LONG before now.
I am donating mine to the Conservative party.
Get rid of Trudeau
This is an absolute joke. It's like putting a Band-Aid on a scratch on the knee when the rest of the leg is broken in three places!
Many will get nothing, but will have to contribute paying for it.
2 months??? What a joke!!! How about just cutting personal income tax??
No help for seniors, liberal losers😡🤬😡😡
Or disabled.
And those of us making over poverty wages won’t get a dime. But we will have a share of the increase in taxes this will cause next year…
@@bill8039 hmmmmmmm no this is how trudeau prints money and launders it.
Trivial relief from EXTREME taxation
Let’s start a movement to have everyone donate their $250 to the Conservative Party
I would, except the carbon tax hike has put me behind on other bills, which will swallow this $250 and still need more.
Bribing people with thier own money, Trudeau is a joke.
An absolute shame. Carbon tax going to 61 cents a liter . That should really help .
Reducing taxes on junk food beer and Christmas trees give me a break. The $250 is only going to those that worked in 2023 as I am retired all of this means nothing.
This is just a facade of helping but it is not enough and we will pay for it in the end.
This is only the beginning. The temporary tax break on some things and the $250 payment in April is the beginning of the vote buying.

all it is ..s drippings to the poor! its offences and rude!
There will be a hugh payback in trudeau’s taxes. Why not just axe the carbon tax…?
$250, isn't that sweet. It's about what Trudeau charges us for one of his meals. It's an insult to every patriotic Canadian out there.
It’s $50 more than the fine for ethics breaches 😅😅😅😅
How can they cut taxes when they keep funding programs nobody asked for? Also, how are they going to pay back all the debt the country has with tax cuts?
They could use the $$ from the ending of the programs nobody asked for..... but of course they wont.
Libs don’t care. They’re just racking up the deficit knowing it will be Pierre’s problem to fix.
I’d pay $250 bucks to call an election !!
This so-called 'cut' is an insult to Canadians - little more than a joke! On April 1st Trudeau will again be laughing his head off at us when he increases the carbon tax!
And getting a raise to boot
Trudeau and his climate activist have made all fools day literal😉
Quadruples it
Liquor tax will be going up too
As has been said many times before .... FJT!
F jt
Tax is theft......really!!! What do polititions produce nothing!!!
We pay tax on the ca4bon tax, qnd thats what is driving the insanity
😂 meanwhile the wind from USA, India, China is entering our borders illegally and not paying their share of cerb daddy's carbon tax
Send the cheques back and tell Trudeau he can keep the cash if he leaves. The Trudeau years are a lost decade.
You can send back yours, I will keep mine.😂
What a joke! I will continue to pay these taxes if Trudeau and Singh will step down. That would be the greatest Christmas gift to Canadians, that is desperately needed, to save our beloved country. The country that they want to sell out to the lowest bidder.
I wouldn't object to the introduction of burqa, niqab, turban, and lgbtq taxes.
Anyone that sees this as a win and a vote for Sock Boy was going to vote for him anyway. Not going to sway anyone to switch from PP to JT.
The CTF should launch a lawsuit against Politicians for them having control of their Pensions and Salaries. In no other business or activity does the employee (Politicians) have control over these matters. This is illegal.
Just means higher taxes in the future. Another huge desiv

They give u $5 dollars then take $15 dollars from u.
Trudy can stuff his temporary tax break! We want an election for Xmas 🎄 as for Bagmeat that pathetic ignorant fool I hope and pray you don’t get that pension you have done nothing to deserve it!
It’s more like a diversion while they slap us with more taxes in the meantime.
I dont buy diapers or alcohol, food should never have been taxed in the first place.
TRUDEAU. NOt my Prime Minister.
Condescending.. He has free rent, Free phones, Free Internet, free heat, free cars, free gas, free Insurance, Free food, free cooks, free cleaners, free nannies for teens, free trips, .. for 9 yrs now...
Start a movement to donate the new $250 benefit to the Conservative Party of Canada ...and get 75% of it back on your taxes.
Support Poilievre, and stick it to Trudeau at the same time.
This tax cut does not apply to disabled or seniors!
It’s not enough he has400,000000 for green slush fund .We can,t afford it . He is corrupt . Half his fed cabinet also if he were in prison people would be able to feed there family,s .
What a joke
He thinks he can buy back your votes. Any government that offers a general tax rebate are over taxing their people. What a jackass m
"Temporary relief is not enough" Well said ..... But permanent relief from trudeau and freeland would go a lot farther. Election right now!!!!!
I don't care about this does not help me I have no kids stop the carbon tax and payroll tax.The USA looks really appetizing right now for work !!
So seniors who stopped contributing to CPP at age 65 but remain working won't get meager $250. Oh well so much for their means of determining who is working.
The federal debt calculator will be spinning faster than ever until election day. Trudeau will spend $1 trillion to stay in power and voters are too stupid to understand what is happening. After 40 years of work I am seriously thinking of leaving Canada. The taxes are being wasted.
What about low income people who can not work? Why do they receive nothing.?
Just a diversion and trying to save his tanking poll
How much people wanna bet the stores will jack up the price to make up for the gst/hst removal
Relief?
Giving back some of my own money isn't a rebate. It was my money to begin with.
This will cost us more money in the long run not less, it's easy math. Retailers will adjust prices to cover the loss and those prices will stay higher after February 15th and the tax comes back into effect.

We should be boycotting Christmas shopping and celebrating with the spirit of the season rather than with dollars.
If this government really wants to help me, they should get their spending under control to ensure tax reductions are permanent.
I bet businesses will love adjusting their accounting software and figure out whats exempt, then go back again, all for 2 months..... 😢
and CRS will have to hire even more slackers to the already bloated staff to implement this diasaster
Keep up the fight, CTF!

Why doesn't he want taxes, or at least high ones, on liquor? Makes it too costly to be a drunkard?
Short term fixes don't get at the root of the problem. This increases the national debt. The inflationary carbon tax must be removed and is at least partially responsible for the high cost of living.

I'm donating the $250 to the Conservatives.
Ya, sure.
Christmas gifts ( 60 days tax-free in Christmas shopping and drinking ) for Canadian voters ? Or buying votes before calling an election in the Spring ? Canadian politics is quite predictable ?
💯 agree GST removal should be Permanent! Maybe provincial government will stop pst as well
Why not just drop the carbon tax, ridiculous.
150,000 a year earners should get nothing. The amount should go to those who really need it ( and thereby perhaps given more to low income canadians). 250 is what people leave as a tip when eating out...250 is what most canadians have to spend on food fir a month...next he'll tell us " to eat cake"...same response is likely.
Imagine reprogramming shop tills for this. Then reprogramming them back again.
He will increase it elsewhere
DROP THE GST PERMANENTLY!
What relief?..not even close to relief...think before you speak..
Chump Change for Chumps.
10 months max until writ drop for fixed election date of 5 Oct or 169/338 MP's vote non confidence on 9 dec non confidence vote.
It's not helping anymore.
Crumbs for the peasants, while blackface enjoys his private jet,chef,nannies,free home, 400 thousand dollar salary, but it should help reduce his 12 thousand dollar monthly food bill.
If you can’t spend money, 5% of nothing is ….
Be smart ! Become a Canadian Refugee. You will enjoy the cash rewards...
Let me know how a cdn citizen can do that.
@tedcity5861
Very easy. Burn your I.D. re emter the border, and claim refugee status. Pick a new name..$80k a year
@kid3764 ya I dont think so. Anyone who's had job ,drivers license etc will have their mug shot all over govt data.
This.
How is Trudeau still alive is my question?
The one million $ Question
Who is going to talk about Insurance Mafia monopoly?
Trudeau🤣😛😝
Your con not-for-profit still will be receiving it opperation cost courtesy of tax payers right.
Lol… a drop in the bucket
THATS ALL YOU NEED. SO SELFISH - probably some lib
This is an informal bail out.
Just in time for another carbon tax hike .
trudo just want photo op
the trudeau hope is that Canadians bite the cheese in the mouse trap even if they smell a rat; the hope is that after they win the election, they will deal with the heads of the five families permanently.
Why stop taxing booze?.....alcohol is a money maker!!
Mostly provincial tax anyway
Your wrong, if you worked in 2023 you will get it. If you are poor like me, you can't afford anything to see any benefit in the gst relief.
Please correct me if I’m wrong. He’s taking the tax off groceries, children’s clothing and alcohol, correct? Aren’t those things already tax free? Or, tax already included? Nothing is tax free!
You look like AOC’s brother
You look like AOC s brother
A TAX BREAK ON CHRISTMAS TREES, GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE TRUDEAU. TAKE YOUR TAX BREAK AND SHOVE IT.
