If you can’t help bashing your birth country you should at least get your numbers straight.

Provincial sales tax is 7%, GST is 5% and has been so for a while.

GST refund checks (I presume this is what you refer to) are not paid to residents per se.

I have no idea what your “$25 climate change” check is supposed to be. Last year, the BC Government paid out $100 pp as a refund for the so-called carbon tax on fuel, so that residents are reimbursed for the tax we all (i.e. including visitors) pay on gas.

Your comments on VIHA are equally idiotic, but I won’t comment on that because obviously you can’t keep even the most basic numbers straight, so what’s the point.

The point is you are still living there, breathing in the stupidity of the country and very well shown everyone here the example of the infamous “canadian inferiority complex”..or is it you dont want to let our American friends know the dirty little secret of how inferior, broken and screwed up the system really is..especially from the point of view of one who grew up in Saskatchewan and BC?

Now F**k off.
