This kind of of red tape and Socialism is going to cause an unprecedented amount of capital flight and your going to have more in common with that Syrian's on TV than you ever thought possible. My advice is you better get a Government Job!!

I'm buying Pot stock, as it looks like a good bet, as Canadians will consume lots too numb the pain of the next decade! Sad when that it not electronics, aviation, energy exports or Hydro, just Pot that is our next big growth opportunity!

For god's sakes, we are already past 50% personal tax w/ consumption and Carbon tax taken into account and the people that I deal with can't take much more!

Sorry for the rant, but this shit is pissing me off...I don't want to be a socialist comrade.
Pot stock, Yep. What makes this country great.

I'm in business myself, and I'll take investing in Donald Trump's America over putting my dollars in communist Canada.

I know the snowflakes who love Trudeau and Wynne won't like this, but God Bless the USA.

Don't like it, go hide in your safe room, smoke your weed and file a human rights complaint.

Without small business, remember you wouldn't have a job, loser. Try to be grateful.

I dunno if I'd trust my money with a trust fund kid who's come up bankrupt more times than a last place Wheel of Fortune contestant.

Sorry but kicking small business in the head is not the way to keep this country moving forward.
Public servants are not allowed to collect "points" on government spending. If they are, they are in violation of most standard of conduct agreements. If points end up being collected, such as aeroplan points for passenger seniority reasons, they must be donated away.

Public Servant benefits are limited to pay, pension, and the benefits defined under employment agreements. You don't even get a cup of coffee at work without paying out of pocket.

I'm not sure "limited" is the word I'd use. Did you know 123,000! public servants in Ontario make over $100,000 per year?

I wonder if even half that in the Ontario private sector make that much per year.
