dave524 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 I've heard the theory that a lot of the glacier and polar meting has to do with dirt, a lot of it ash from fairly recent volcanic events on the surface of the snow absorbing the heat rather than reflecting it , makes more sense to me than green house gases theories.
12 Volt Man Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 soon there will be a carbon tax on farting..
porkpie Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 soon there will be a carbon tax on farting.. We'd go broke at work if that came to pass.
Paudash Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 funny on how all the Liberal lovers only come out at election time to complain about the PC's What Wynne is doing is just a warm up for what Justine is going to do to us next month
Headhunter Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 When this topic came up a few months ago, I contacted my local MPP to find out what this was going to mean to my bottom line. The MPP's office told me that there should not be any increase to the consumer as the tax was going to be at the manufacturing level and not at the pumps. Seems they have managed to monetize that price right onto the pumps. My question, is there ever going to be an end to this governments appetite for cash? I already know the answer. How long can we afford to live like this in an ever increasing tax structure? HH
Dara Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 Thats a lot of money...I wonder what they plan on spending a carbon tax on
DRIFTER_016 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 How long can we afford to live like this in an ever increasing tax structure? HH Until Toronto is Detroit North.

Raf Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 winnipeg is starting to look mighty attractive. only time i'd have to come into ontario is to fish... all within a 3 hr drive. Hmm.

Hmm. Just get your gas in Manitoba as the price jumps 20 cents as soon as you pass that imaginary line. Come January it'll jump 25 cents now!!!
Raf Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 Just get your gas in Manitoba as the price jumps 20 cents as soon as you pass that imaginary line. Come January it'll jump 25 cents now!!! sad part is, i'm only half joking. there seem to be jobs in my field (IT) in winnipeg and there's some great muskie lakes just over that imaginary line in ontario.
netminder Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 The only reason the conservatives haven't been elected in ontario is because they keep shooting themselves in the foot. I have no idea why John Tory wasn't elected last time he ran though. Now the next guy the conservatives want to run against the Ontario Liberals is as backwards as the latest crop of Republicans south of the border. It's like they don't want to win.

The province is in too much of a mess for them to want any part of it
Raf Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 Lots of everything over that way. Great place to fish that's for sure. yup lake winnipeg too. provincial income tax rate in MB though -- HOLY MOLY. no matter where ya are, they get you somehow.
Dara Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 yup lake winnipeg too. provincial income tax rate in MB though -- HOLY MOLY. no matter where ya are, they get you somehow. I'm gonna say it before he does no provincial income tax in the territories :tease: :tease: :tease: :tease: :tease: :tease:
John Bacon Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 I'm gonna say it before he does no provincial income tax in the territories :tease: :tease: :tease: :tease: :tease: :tease: But they have territorial income tax.
DRIFTER_016 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 I'm gonna say it before he does no provincial income tax in the territories + travel deductions for holidays, + Northern Living Allowance, + much larger basic tax allowances. But you're wrong, we do have territorial income tax, federal income tax but only GST. No sales taxes like HST, PST etc. Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
adempsey Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 My natural gas went up $20/month just over a year ago too. Taxing on the carbon tax is a Bull move too, I hope they don't do that. At least they increased spending for healthcare.
smitty55 Posted February 26, 2016 Report Posted February 26, 2016 At least they increased spending for healthcare. Yea, after years of freezes and cutbacks including layoffs. Cheers
glen Posted February 26, 2016 Report Posted February 26, 2016 If that's all it's takes to solve global warming then it's a good deal. Maybe I can get back to icefishing. Glad I didn't sell my gear.
manitoubass2 Posted February 26, 2016 Report Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) Winnipeg is not a place you wanna live. Winnipeg and thunderbay are like the detroit of canada Edited February 26, 2016 by manitoubass2
wormdunker Posted February 26, 2016 Report Posted February 26, 2016 I lived in Thunder Bay back in 1971 - awesome city at that time! Fishing, hunting, skiing all very close to home. I'm not sure what it is like now but I have heard that crime is rampant as well as druggies on every street corner.

Still worth a visit for the sleeping giant or some skiing but stay away from downtown. Similar to winnipegs downtown or north end
FloatnFly Posted February 26, 2016 Report Posted February 26, 2016 Its a good thing the cost of living went down and our wages went up to compensate for these extra taxes.....oh wait
