Don't forget you only get taxed extra if you realize all those earnings in the same year. So not only do you need to make more than 250k you also need to have a reason to take it out all at once rather than a little bit each year as you typically would if it were retirement income or something along those lines.

It started good, but then started to fall into typical conservative taking points.
He correctly identified that the problem started when Canada sold off crown corporations, but then attributed the problem to over regulation of these newly private cooperation.
Somehow he also called CBC a monopoly in there, which is a wild jump.
My main take away from this video is the best solution is to deregulate (the other points were "increase competition", but at this point that's like politians saying they will create more nurses or doctors, unless you also state a plan I assume you're just blowing smoke). His argument for how deregulating airlines or banking or ISPs would make things better for us didn't really exist.
Regulations might make it hard to start a new bank, so I'll give him that. But I have a hard time seeing how regulations is what's preventing new ISPs or grocery stores from cropping up.
Overall in my opinion it's a captivating video that lacks any substance, which is typical for politicans, but also disappointing because you don't often get to hear them talk about something for over 10 minutes where they actually do have time to explain a plan properly.
If they could somehow make this data available to search engines. Maybe we can start being able to google random problems and actually find solutions again.
Don't you think the people who have the most wealth and the most power should also be taking the most responsibility?
That is effectively how the current carbon pricing system works.
Only the upper parts of the middle class on average pay in more than they get back.
You could have just said "no I have no evidence and I'm using my feelings as facts" that would have saved us all time.
There is also an exception on farm related fuels. I only mention this because there is also a huge misconception that the carbon rebate is increasing the cost to grow food and that's why food prices are up so much.
It's been a month since they manage to get a first phase of a pharmacare bill passed.
It's frustrating seeing conservative followers claim the the current government is lying to them based only on the lies they are hearing from conservative leaders.
Is no one capable of fact checking what they hear? It's exhausting hearing the same bogus statements over and over and over.
... Did you read what I posted?
Yes there is a carbon pricing program, that was never up for debate. I pay it too (and get more back than I pay in).
And yes portions of provinces have been mislead because they seem to have no ability to actually validate what they hear on the news. You're a perfect example of that. You're clearly really angry, but the things you're angry about aren't actually true.
I'm assuming you've heard things said by the media, or conservative polititions and you just accepted it as fact and it made you angry. Which was their plan. The whole conservative strategy these days is to mislead their base, create division and make people angry. They don't have any substantial solutions for anything, but that's also ok because their base have been trained to not question anything they hear.
I highly highly encourage you question everything you hear in the media. Official sources (like canada.ca) are trustworthy, but you can also go even deeper and find actual bills. You can work yourself out of the hole you're in, it'll just take time, and you'll have to put in effort. I the current conservative controlled media landscape it takes constant effort to get real facts about things.
Do you have anything to actually prove any of that is lies?
I've given you substantial evidence that what you're saying isn't true. And you're just responding with "lies" as if that somehow invalidates the factual evidence I've given you.
You need to either read this new information, learn something new and admit that what you were saying before isn't true. Or you need to provide proof that what you're saying is backed up by reputable sources.
You hear it all the time because it's how the system works.

There are also links at the bottom of the page to more details.
If you don't trust it because it's a Canada.ca address, then I think your best bet is to go read the actual bill, I'm not going to find that for you, but you're going to have to but in some effort, you've been mislead (which is fine it happens) but then you've decided to start spreading that same misinformation, that isn't ok. It isn't that hard to be an informed citizen today, but a big part of that is not trusting everything you hear on the news.
Well of course not. These game studios were selling games at 60-80$ each. Microsoft bought them, then started providing the all the games for a flat fee of 15$ per month.
I assumed their strategy was to lose money in the medium term while they worked on getting people used to playing games on subscription. Where they make their money back is when they stop outright selling games at full price and make them only available on subscription, and then they slowly start increasing that monthly subscription cost.
In order for that to work they need a large library and like 5-10 years.
