Supplemental? All Canadians pay for health care. Some more than

All pay with a near buck a liter tax on gasoline. And those who
pay income
tax, at,least 50%. Plus what's the VAT tax in your province?"


Say what?
Our gas is 96 cents a liter right now. How could we be paying a
buck a liter taxes?
Income tax of 50 per cent? You'd have to make a pretty good
income to
pay that much. I've paid income tax all my life and never paid that.


Last trip to BC. Was $1.19 a liter. Add up your taxes, and see
what the
percentage is. Sorry, meant a buck a gallon. 3.7 liters per
gallon. So
close to $3.60 a gallon. Probably $2.40 a gallon for US average.
Your
income is on the low end., so expect low tax rates on your income

Low end? What would you consider "low end" Swill?

Janitors make good money working for the Crown Corp.?


It's not so much the money. It's all the free booze.


That's really funny coming from a former navy guy, a branch of the
service known for its heavy drinkers, and whose last significant
accomplishment ended with the surrender of the Japanese.

Talk about heavy drinkers. Didn't your wife write a paper on heavy
drinkers and dope users. She didn't have go go far to find subjects eh?
