Лен,вот я на почти 100% согласна вот с этим мнением,ничего ужасного,чтоб прям плакать нет. Okay I'm going to do a little clarification and elaboration for my peers in oil on the proposed taxes. If you make over 200k you will see the introduction off 33% tax bracket. (Literally the 1% of Canada) on only earnings above 200k (thanks for the correction boys!) Most people I know make a little less than that. If you make under, you will see no raise. IF you make between 45,000 to 89,000 (rounded) you will receive a 2% break. The majority of Albertans make 60,000 because Alberta is actually larger than just Fort McMurray. Yes I was also surprised to hear this.You need to relax, Trudeau has a senate and house to go up against for any decision/legislation. It's like checks and balances it's why we have an official opposition.Secondly, the east versus the west thing. Alberta contributes (2013) 17% of the gdp. Ontario alone contributed 36%. Quebec 19%. So I mean they're not really biting the hand that feeds if they're also... A hand that feeds. And they're voting for their own. Which is what we're doing being blue. Actually it's just how voting works. Also surprising.Thirdly, I am under the impression that we have had a liberal government for years prior and I do believe everyone still kept their jobs. So that's very exciting. I'm assuming lay offs are due to the influx of too much supply oil and not enough demand in the world. As opposed to an NDP or liberal or conservative govt. the correlation of job to political party is poor. Actually your EI might be better now. So that's neat.Fourthly, we aren't separating we are landlocked. Very difficult.All in all I did the math. Because I'm Asian and I can do that stuff before posting. So anything you make over 200k is progressively taxed. let's say you make 300k. the extra 2% taxed is on only 100k so it's an extra 2000/year. So if that's going to kill you and drive you into debt then um. You need a financial advisor. Immediately. Like yesterday. Like you're already fucked if you make 6 figures and you live paycheque to paycheque. It is NOT any political parties fault you're in debt at that point. It's just you.Unfortunately an NDP provincial govt is pushing taxes up for anyone over 125k as well. Combined that's sort of an issue. But the voter turnout in Fort McMurray was 41.9%. So. You should probably feel bad if you didn't vote. Like you helped fuck us. Like you really fucked up oil patch people. Granted we have a cons guy, this was a big deal and there should have been a huge turnout from oil makers.I can't speak for my peers but take those thousands. I won't miss it. If it means somebody else gets health care, some kid gets a daycare because I lived with a little less? Non issue for me. There are a lot of families in Canada I have been so lucky to be able to support mine fully. I'd like to see us help whoever we can as the top 10%.That's my two cents. Hopefully that clears things up for anybody who had questions. References I have but won't post because this fucking post was so long. But I have a bachelors in politics so I assure you my keyword searching abilities and paraphrasing is on point.
