Is the Canadian tax system is less confiscatory than the U.S.? I don’t know . How does one fairly judge that?
I do know , for unlike in the US , the lucky few in Canada that win the lottery or beat a slot machine the winnings are tax free . I also know that Ontario has only one toll highway that can easily be avoided and it costs me $37.50 to tag my car for a year . I consider both those a tax so I really don’t know.
Living costs in Canada are much higher than the US...next time you are in BC go to the provincial liquor store and buy a six-pack of cheap beer...be prepared for a shock!
Stop by a Ford dealership and price a modest F150 pickup...gives sticker shock a whole new meaning.
