One bad tax is gone and you can stop another one.

The good news is that the digital services tax that was about to be slapped on everything from Netflix to Amazon to Uber has been scrapped.

The problem is that companies would have passed on those taxes to customers like YOU when you download your favourite show or order something you need on Amazon.

That tax would have cost Canadians billions and turned up the heat on trade disputes (even former president Joe Biden strongly opposed a DST).

But here's the thing: Carney has another doozey of a tax coming your way.

Carney campaigned on imposing a carbon tariff. The idea is simple. If another country doesn't impose policies like Carney's industrial carbon tax, he'll slap a carbon tax on its exports to Canada.

Think about what carbon tariffs would do. First, they would make the things you buy more expensive. Second, they would inflame trade disputes even more.

Wake up people. He aint what the media claimed he is.

Canadians voted for Mark Carney because he wasn't Trudeau.  They were right.  He's much much worse.  The sooner the globalist banker's government is defeated, the sooner Canada can get back on track. Canada cannot afford his outlandish spending spree.
.....
"The Carney government is poised to post a massive deficit of more than $92 billion during this fiscal year, a new report from a well-respected financial think tank projects, almost double what was forecast just a few months ago by a non-partisan arm of the government.

The report, from the C.D. Howe Institute, also forecasts deficits of more than $77 billion a year over the next four years, also huge increases over what had been expected. If this fiscal year's deficit turns out to be as hefty as projected, it would be the second-largest deficit in Canadian history, topped only by the $327.7 billion shortfall from the pandemic year of 2020-21.

Alexandre Laurin, C.D. Howe's vice-president, said the federal government's fiscal situation is getting worse. "The picture is definitely not pretty."

Old Herman likes RFK.

Donald Trump's Department of Health and Human Services made a significant step on Thursday toward preventing illegal aliens from draining taxpayer funds.

The HHS announced that it has rescinded the Clinton administration's interpretation of an act that allowed immigrants unlawfully in the U.S. to receive federal benefits.

A press release explained that, for over two decades, the HHS used the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 to "improperly extend[] certain federal public benefits to illegal aliens."

The Clinton administration's 1998 interpretation "improperly narrowed the scope of PRWORA, undercutting the law by allowing illegal aliens to access programs Congress intended only for the American people," Trump's HHS wrote.

The HHS estimated that the changes would result in American citizens having up to $374 million annually in additional funds for Head Start services. According to the Office of the Administration for Children & Families, Head Start supports "children's growth from birth to age 5 through services centered around early learning and development, health, and family well-being."

The Carney government said it's launching a review to rein in Ottawa's runaway spending. And government union bosses are already fearmongering.

The Canadian Union of Public Employees called the potential savings "draconian rollbacks" and promised to "fight to defend against the devastating impacts that Mr. Carney's cuts will have."

There's plenty of fat the government should cut.

The government spent $8 million building a barn on the governor general's estate.

The government added 99,000 more federal paper pushers and ballooned the cost of the bureaucracy by 73 per cent since 2016.

And the government put taxpayers on the hook for about $30 billion in subsidies so multinational corporations can build battery factories.
