Found a flaw

My god you are terrible at shitposting..

It's not shitposting. I want people here to tell me why they hate Canada. We are the greatest nation in the world.

I see several.

>putting a fucking leaf on your flag

What the hell were they thinking?

Not an argument

I live here.

Leaves are better than balls.

only quebec deserve to exist

Socialism and degeneracy.

My PM is a closet fag
My premier is a fucking dyke
My taxes are out the ass

just end it

Si seulement la Russie n'avait pas trahie Napoléon.

Not enough gay pride parades. We need one every week to celebrate diversity!

not enough terrorist attacks according to global scoreboard amirite?

As an American (occasionally in Montreal on a work permit) there are certain things I like about Canada but seriously guys your prices are kind of fucked:
>beer is reasonable at 5-6 dollars, but mixed drinks are $8-$14, and with miserly portions with huge amounts of ice
>restaurant prices on the whole are not that bad aside from beverages
>Hotel prices can easily go up by 20-30% from taxes alone
>Rental car cost is crazy. Pick up a car at 10:30AM monday, return 6PM tuesday, $130 CAD
>airport fees are often 3-4x+ more than similar fees for a flight departing from a US airport

The taxes thing is the funniest to me because the government is super anal about it (in Quebec, I guess). I noticed that receipts always print with a 2D barcode at the bottom. I looked it up and apparently all receipts have to go through a machine given to restaurants by the province of Quebec so it can digitally sign the barcode and make sure the count of shit sold (as reported to the government) matches what is printed on customer receipts. Smart, but tremendously burdensome on a small business owner.

I guess for me, as an American, I'm used to a little less government invasiveness generally. At least in the ways that you'd observe in day to day life, more of a hands off approach. ESPECIALLY in the form of taxes.

15% taxes on sold goods, top tax bracket is 50%, State monopoly on electricity, multiple tariffs, multiple fees for government services, forced to pay for State medical insurance for shit medical services for which you have to wait 24h in line, shit public transport, highly corrupted government (on all sides), nonsensical budget, State regulated semi-monopoly on farms and animal produce (supply management policy) which prevents new business from being created and increases prices artificially, stupid diversity programs and affirmative action everywhere, next to no freedom of expression (joke about a kid, get forced to pay 40k$), police doesn't do their jobs, most students are SJW who always want to go on strike, government doesn't care about protecting French culture against Anglos or against immigrants forming ghettos (much worse than speak English IMO), etc. Quebec is doomed.

you mad achmed?

go fuck your goat, little buddy.

Leftism is for little niggers like you.

I just took a look and compared.

For comparison, I make ~$100K USD a year ($130K CAD now). My income earned in the US is taxed progressively. My income earned in the US is taxed from as little as 14% (10% federal, 4% state) to, at the upper ends, 34.65%.

Let's say I moved to Quebec and earned all my income directly employed in Canada (my employer pays my Canadian tax liability on my behalf right now). My lowest income would be taxed at 15% for Canada, 16% for Quebec = 31%. For the highest amount of my income, it would be subject to 26% federal tax + 25.75% quebec tax = More than 50% in tax.

And then everything is more expensive. In New York tax is 7.5% for sales tax on goods, many online sales have no tax charged (your supposed to submit it as "use tax" on your state tax return if the seller is from outside New York and you didn't pay sales tax, but less than 4% of tax filings have anything in that line). As you said, 15% GST.

Effectively against goods purchased, towards the higher ends of my income, every dollar I earn in the US is worth about 58 cents in shit I buy (34.65% income tax, plus 7.5% sales tax = 41.65%). Whereas in Canada, every dollar I earn is worth about 33 cents (51.75% income tax + 15% GST). And pretty much everything is more expensive.

Guess you have to pay for the healthcare and all the other FREE SHIT somehow.

too cold

>Find a flaw
Easy
>The whole country
Face it. We were better off with dad telling us what to do.

Yeah, and the efficiency of the healthcare in Quebec is literally the worst according to some statistics in the Western world. Since the healthcare system is organized such that hospitals receive an amount of money based on past expenditures (instead of receiving money based on the amount of acts done), they have no incentives on seeing more patients, doing better diagnostics, etc.

The overall services provided by the government are abysmal in quality. The roads for instance need to be repaired like every 2 years, so most businesses have little to no parking spot next to them which reduces their clientele and the availability of the business. Some municipalities don't even take out the snow, when literally every year it snows a lot. (You'd think they would have figured out an efficient system, but no.) Most construction contracts are given to friends of those in power which means that the services aren't the best since there's no competition or free market.

Also, when you look at the supply management policy, it increases the prices of basic foods (like eggs, milk, chicken), which obviously takes a toll on the poorest, but sure.

You have an insane minimum wage policy (some even want to increase it) which reduces employment, and the quality of the job employees have or increases the price on goods. (Your employer has to pay for that somehow, it's not free like people think.)

On top of that, when you create a business, you need to pay a huge amount of fees. For instance, you're obligated to register your business with the registrar of businesses for which you need to pay for, you need to have your building inspected, etc.

Literally, after all that, few have anything left to pay for what they enjoy which would help the economy grow. And then people wonder why many, poor and rich, lie about their income on your tax return.

However, forgot to mention, to be fair to the tax rates of Canada, you would get a fiscal abatement of 16,5% because you would live in Quebec (since Quebec doesn't benefit from some Federal programs). It's still pretty much meaningless since an abatement of 16,5% of what you have to pay in taxes, when the taxes rates are 50%+ is not much.

What's the abatement on, is that 16.5% off of the federal tax rate of 26% or 16.5% off my tax liability total? Either way, I agree with you, I'm just using research from the relevant websites rather than getting a degree on accounting on how all the deductions/reductions work.

>This
You doing you're own thing led to you electing that edgy memelord Trudeau.

...

It's on the amount of money you have to pay as taxes. Once you calculate your revenue, and apply the tax rates, then you apply the abatement. The abatement doesn't reduces the tax rates, but the amount of money you have to pay after you calculate your taxes using your tax rates.

With deductions in the US I generally get about $3,000 back a year between federal and state, which would be around 9-10% of my tax liability. 16% sounds nice until you consider that it's 16% of a sum that is much, much greater.

I'm still going to work on my Canadian citizenship stuff (Dad was born in BC) for ease of me doing my current work in Canada (no work permit required), but as far as living in Canada.... eh. I live in New York so the weather is not drastically different from parts near the border (at least, in parts of Canada closer to the US border) but the cost of living in Canada is crazy.

Vancouver was more insane with costs than Quebec was. I couldn't believe how much shit cost there.

HELLO CANADIAN BITCHES
THIS IS YOU AFTER TRUDEAU

>flag check

>greatest nation in the world
I know it's bait but fucking hell

I've never been to BC, but apparently the housing bubble is pretty harsh.

Although, if you work in Canada, you could still be subject to taxes on your revenue generated in Canada (like if you own a business there), but since you employer pays for that, then it's not much of a problem. Besides, the glory of NAFTA is that even if you're not a citizen you can still move in and out of Canada pretty much without problems.

Just out of curiosity, what's your job?

>cant even integrate with the Frenchies after 200 years
>tells everyone else to accept the religion of peace

Jus' stahp

Software engineer (consultant). Under NAFTA, this exempts me from a lot of work permit requirements. I theoretically could prepare an application on my own, but a legal firm does it on my behalf and it costs around $1k-$2k in the end (on my own, assuming success, the permit costs around $200 CAD/yr, work pays for all of it in either case). NAFTA doesn't apply right to reside, but under NAFTA I could rent an apartment or something temporarily to work for the Canadian branch. Work charges my Canadian clients somewhere around $3000 CAD/day for my time and work pays for my flight/hotel/rental car/taxes and all of that. Makes things simple as they can be, with international travel. (At least I have NEXUS).

Having the Canadian citizenship would be more flexible than the work permit since we have a lot of customers in Canada who need my expertise and that would exempt me from regional restrictions on work.

[I ended up getting a work permit that was allowed to work throughout Canada, but I got caught in an interesting battle with two parts of the Canadian government. Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) issues the work permit, and their understanding of work permits was that I could work anywhere in Canada. Whereas Citizenship & Immigration Canada (CIC) didn't agree. I basically had to plea (apologizing often, as is tradition) to a CBSA officer that while I understood that *he* knew how to do his job, some numbskull at CIC thought that I should get kicked out... so he would edit my work permit with the wording that satisfied CIC. Ugh, the joys of Canadian bureaucracy!]

There is a big leaf on it
It makes you look silly

It doesnt inspire fear like ours.
There is no better theft deterrant than a giant American flag on your door. The owner of the house is armed and will kill you with no warning.

BTW, I think you used the wrong tax rates for the Federal government (for 2016).

15% on the first $45,282 of taxable income, +
20.5% on the next $45,281 of taxable income (on the portion of taxable income over $45,282 up to $90,563), +
26% on the next $49,825 of taxable income (on the portion of taxable income over $90,563 up to $140,388), +
29% on the next $59,612 of taxable income (on the portion of taxable income over $140,388 up to $200,000), +
33% of taxable income over $200,000.

as I said
The bottom end ($0 and up) of my income in Canada would be subject to 15% Canada Federal + 16% quebec provincial income tax, while the upper ends of my income ($90K+) would be subject to 26% Canada federal + 25.75% quebec income tax. Unless I'm missing something...

The 16% earlier was in reference to and regarding an abatement.

My bad, for some reason I thought you made over 200k. And no you're not missing something (outside of the tax credits/deductions, but they don't end up for much).

Yeah NAFTA facilitates working in Canada a lot, but our bureaucracy often works against that by its size.

Just seeing your flag, i can ramble off 100s of flaws.

Starting with their low IQ white trash nigger population.

Canadians and African American hood niggers have so much in common

>your flag

You mean OUR flag, you self-hating loser? You'll never be accepted by the LE EBIN COOL KIDS XD on Sup Forums.
