Information about Canada's Taxation System



Today we had an intro to Canada's Tax system. We'll continue talking about taxes and, in particular, your Tax Return, which must be filed by April 30, 2019. 

Some people feel like they are paying through the nose for taxes in Canada but most accept that yes, there are a lot of taxes, but we get free public education, healthcare and good infrastructure as well as policing, fire and emergency services, and finally, a fair and democratic government and judicial system. 

Are we getting a good bang for our buck (good value for our money) do you think? Make a comment on THIS POST.

  5. If we the taxpayers want to get a good bang for our buck ,we should file the tax on time and shouldn't think that we pay through the nose ,because we get back what we pay in Canada .

  10. Paying money through the nose means that you are paying excessive amount of something like in-come tax, its hard to take money out from your pocket, consider 48% of your income goes to income tax, some time your heart stop breathing, but once you are confident that the money what you will pay as tax will be good bang for our buck, means its beneficial for us, you will getting high quality of Health care, getting good public education, good infrastructure as well as policing , fire and emergency services, and finally, a fair and democratic government and judicial system. etc......

  14. We moved here two years ago so I don’t have that much idea either we are getting good bang for the money or not. However, we are getting free education, free health facilities and municipal services so I think so far so good. I am confirdnet that system is so much transparent so I am glad about it.
