Yes but to be fair, I don’t care about my employer either. I think I’d prefer a simple e-mail rather than listen to someone face-to-face or over the phone blow smoke up my ass about how much they regret having to do this.
I don’t know about you, but I eat when I’m hungry.
There’s a digital billboard six blocks away that lights up the wall on my 38th floor bedroom at night whenever it cycles through a white ad at 3am. Seriously? What the fuck.
until it’s night time and they is no… wind
Spot the person who’s never been to Alberta. It’s ALWAYS FUCKING WINDY HERE.
To shreds you say?
I just take taxi, go to hotels (using the owner site, never a 3rd party), and do groceries and cook at home.
You might be distancing yourself from the exploitation, but I guarantee you could still find it if you looked.
Not sure why comments like this get so many upvotes. What kind of fantasy world are you living in where rich people pay taxes? There are entire industries formed around helping people to avoid paying as much tax as possible.
I’m sure they do, they may not understand the technical details, but I’m not sure why you think people who make rules or pass laws would think the rules or laws won’t be broken or circumvented. It’s a law, not some magical contract. If your parents say “no Xbox until you’ve finished your homework”, they’re not amazed when they find you on the Xbox 20 minutes later, homework unfinished.
It’s been illegal to sell alcohol and porn to minors for decades now, do you think before the internet and VHS it was impossible for kids to find? Do you think the lawmakers back then were somehow baffled that the law they put in place, didn’t 100% prevent children from drinking and stiffening their socks?
Ah yes, the ol’ “we shouldn’t try to control access to something because there’s illegal methods to avoid it.” Why even bother requiring ID for gun/alcohol/tobacco sales when you can just get someone else to buy them for you?
What a silly argument.
And they would be wrong.
That’s exactly what I took from reading the original article. You’d have to want to see something else in order to see it some other way, or be an incompetent reader.
She probably thinks the Native Americans are thankful that they now have all those nice reservations to live on as well, compared to the conditions they had before the Europeans came.
the Government of Canada should consider introducing a windfall profits tax on large, price-setting corporations to disincentivize excess hikes in their profit margins for these items
Right, but it’s broader than just targeting 3 large grocery chains. AFAIK there’s no current law that allows the Government to tax an individual at a rate that isn’t on the books, and something like this is still years away (it’s just a recommendation after a year of study for starters).
It doesn’t help anyone struggling to put food on the table in the short term sadly, but hey let’s all just blast off into stupid land and suggest taxing them is the easy answer that will solve all of our problems. This isn’t Facebook, and the original poster’s suggestion was fucking retarded.
And we see what happens with every other law that tries something similar. The law spends months or years in deliberation, and eventually when it passes it’s not clear enough of what a ‘grocer’ is, or whether individually owned franchises count, etc.
That’s why none of this shit ever amounts to anything but noise.
The gov’t can request info from the CRA on profits the big grocers make, compare them to pre-pandemic numbers and adjust their tax rate.
You can’t adjust the tax rates of INDIVIDUAL companies.
He should tax the fuck out of them
Ok, but realistically now, how would you even do that. What would be the law you’d implement to allow you to do that? That’s not how taxes work at all.
Look at all the downvotes… a simple google search would tell you it’s true.
You don’t need to go all the way to Somalia though, the Somalian gangs are already here trafficking drugs.
Well, they really don’t like it when you call them a cunt here.
