โ Good news on the gst hst breaks.
@disk4mat yes, didn't expect that it's good to see :)
Originally NDP idea so they are supporting it so it will pass.
@disk4mat ๐๐ผ I wish it was permanent for the time being :) iAt least it will help a lot of families, seniors and others while it's active
I think the pressure for it to become permanent will rise after this.
@disk4mat that would be great :) The $250 one-time rebate for folks who made below $150,000 in 2023 - my god, who makes that much? Not most Canadians. Most ppl are barely getting by month to month.
The $250 is for people who are working only.
I don't know what people make anymore the numbers for everything are strange for us.
I hope you qualify we were retired in 2023 so won't get the cheque.
@disk4mat from the article:
"The Liberal government will also send $250 cheques to the 18.7 million people in Canada who worked in 2023 and earned $150,000 or less."
"Those cheques, which the government is calling the "Working Canadians Rebate," will arrive sometime in "early spring 2025," Trudeau said."
