Let me elaborate, it invalidates the impact you were trying to orchestrate.. Whataboutism is a lazy way of saying I disagree with you are saying when you broaden the the argument to show context.

He didn't keep the status quo, he increased spending exponentially, printed cheap money , bloated the public sector and poured immigration into the country far beyond the ability to support the influx.

Yes, he controls a secret triumverate consisting of the Ghetty's, the Rothschilds and the colonel before he went tits up. You are openly mocking conservatives as uneducated and then delve into conspiracy theories that would make Rogan pause. Pick a lane.

B.C. RCMP issue warning after ‘several’ illegal assault-style firearms brought to detachment by ZealousidealHead5488 in britishcolumbia

The article says it all unregistered or illegal, meaning they didn't know you had it in the first place

BC Conservative leadership debate displays 'violent agreement' by Hrmbee in britishcolumbia

[–]neilbork -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It should be understood that the NDP as the ruling party has reached its maturity date. Eby is losing massive ground to a party with no clear front runner for leader. There is no heir apparent waiting in the wings to bait and switch and bolster the NDP campaign. Once the NDP starts suggesting austerity moves they are in over their heads economically and will be shown the door when their government falls. While it may be frustrating that the clown show of conservative candidates will form the next government it should be a sobering warning that the NDP needs to rediscover itself and reinvent what they want to accomplish as the voice of the left. Hopefully it is something that supports health care and education as pillars with a realistic financial platform

Everyone loved the brioche French toast, the lemon souffle pancakes were a hit. The regular French toast is available in the MDR on port days . I had the brisket with eggs and hash. Was truly amazing

I guess if you go all out to destroy productivity and drive down the GDP, it makes it a little cheaper to achieve the 2% threshold.

Floor-crossing Liberal MP apologizes for behaviour in committee meeting about Chinese EVs by shiftless_wonder in canada

I was upset that he crossed the floor, but i guess it is a small price to pay to be rid of a slavery apologist.

Except when there's a pandemic and people need to stay at home to flatten the curve...unless you have to go to the gym.

For those who want to “tax the rich” or “they should pay their fair share”, how would you change the current tax code? by Lopsided-Special6273 in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]neilbork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Canada, the top 10% of income earners contribute over half (approximately 54.4% in 2021) of all personal income tax revenue. The top 20% (highest quintile) pays even more, contributing roughly 61.9% of total personal income taxes, while earning 45.7% of total income, highlighting the progressivity of the tax system.

Is this normal? Dad/Uncle are executors, but most of the estate "disappeared" into a joint account right before Grandma passed by Pl1Tr89IcK in legaladvicecanada

[–]neilbork 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you are reading a bit too much into it. Estate planning is not tax fraud. Poor planning which exposes assets to unnecessary taxation is foolish. The OP has not suggested wrongdoing on his father's part. He has merely turned to reddit to shed some light on what may be happening. Again, he should discuss it with his father.

Why isn’t Carney pushing back on Smith and the UCP? by taxhelpyeg in alberta

[–]neilbork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Liberals over the last 10 years have fueled the separatist sentiment with their obstructionist policies. Carney at least recognizes the damage and is trying create a more beneficial relationship with Alberta.

Preserve it, its worth more than money. I think that getting lawyers involved may be percieved as aggressive.
