In these uncertain times, it's more important than ever to have a solid understanding of how to manage your finances, invest wisely and navigate economic downturns. But my primary concern is how to grow my reserve of $240k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains, sure I'm all in on the long term game, but with my savings are lying waste to inflation and my portfolio losing gains everyday, I need a remedy.

The worst part are the ignorant people that voted Liberals for the last 8 years who voted "Liberal" because they love the idea of getting free things. Coincidentally there are also the people that don't pay net tax and are more like net benefit receivers of government largesse and waste.

Just disgusting the amount of taxes we pay in this country, and what the common peasant gets back. The only news or announcement the majority of Canadians want is an election, the drama class teacher has destroyed the country enough.

Bitter truth said. We are pushing entrepreneurs and hard working skill workers out to U.S as they get better reward for the work south of the border.

He right. Nobody is even attempting any new natural resources projects. Bill c69 for example AKA the no more pipelines act. Lets get back to developing our resources.

Very well said Pierre. Con-fiscal-tion! You make me proud to own Franco-Nevada shares.

Capital growth (equity) is what every small business owner has put at risk in building their business. It is not the same as receiving a risk-free income. That's why only 50% is taxed upon sale - recognising that the equity is risky and can go to $0.00. Increasing the inclusion rate is not only regressive but RETROACTIVE to all capital growth accumulated over the last 23 years. Nothing short of theft of small business owner retirement funds.

jeez, tax fraud has become a moral duty now, huh?

the problem of this country honestly isn't the amount of taxes. it's the inefficiency in the way it's spent.

No! Currently, only 50% of capital gains count as taxable income. If you pay 30% as a marginal tax rate, then you are really only paying 15% on overall capital gains. Yes. Productivity should be one of 3 national projects, incl health care and housing

when you steal peoples bank accounts because they honked horns at you theft by taxation is just routine.

Yes right only rich tax bracket is confiscation. What about middle class who is our voice?

Well said Mr Lassonde

53% income tax for the top bracket in NS

This guy should be Canadian PM

Canadians celebrated tax freedom day on June 19, 2023... almost 50%.

Couldn't say it better

Reasonably wealthy or reasonably greedy. And maybe if these greedy people leave the country, the haemorrhaging stops and people have more money in their pockets because let’s face it the ones leaving the country are probably very greedy. They need all the money and nobody else can have any I have no problems with these people leaving the country. Maybe it leaves enough money for the rest of us to be distributed you know money is supposed to circulate not end up in just one person’s pockets. Did you ever think of that

The most effective social program is the one that promotes a business environment that results in more sustainable good paying jobs. Our politicians and many media commentators don’t get it. It’s important to consider the entrepreneur who swings for the bleachers but what about the small business person who takes a business risk and builds an operation that supports Canadian workers with good wages and steady work? They are the ones Trudeau targets in this budget. He isn’t hurting the ulta rich! He’s screwing the bright, diligent, and committed successful small busines people who generate most of the economic wealth in Canada. This trust baby and his socialist acolytes are busy ruining the foundations on which Canada was built. Lamentably, he follows in the footsteps of his late and not-so-great irresponsible father. The apple has not fallen far from the tree. He busily redistributes a shrinking pie instead of allowing more pies to be made. Until his people are driven from office and replaced by a responsible government, Canada will not prosper. Our national wealth will remain on a downward trajectory.

I think a billionaire has a self interest in opposing a personal wealth tax. Mr Lassonde has made his $Bs outside Canada, although lives and does his philanthropy here. Like the CPP does to get the returns the US, the strongest economy in world, offers. Most investors that. Also personal and corporate taxes are lower in Canada than in the US. Billionaires could follow the example of Mr Musk and not take a large compensation, own multiple McMansions or a bevy of Yachts.

The liberal proposal isn't a tax above 50%. It's increasing the inclusion rate so that 75% of the gain above $250k is included in your taxable income, rather than 50%. Pierre is a moron if he doesn't understand this.

Corporations, mining or otherwise, are always quick to look for and request subsidies. I think David Lewis had a term for this; Corporate Welfare Bums. And our politicians go along with this.

they finally went after the Chinese with all their secondary properties.

Corporations are the reason the average person can barely afford to pay any tax. If you contribute to that and are profiting millions or billions off it, you can afford to pay over 50% tax. Blows my mind how these narratives take off when less than 1% of Canadians pay a 50% real tax rate on their income. I am from a wealthy family who happily pay tax and advocate for parties that want more on the wealthy. Because we see what is happening around us, society is crumbling in the US and Canada with 40 years of neoliberalism and trickle down economics failing. Us taking 500,000 of a million is fine, well survive. I'd rather that than what's happening in the US where the rich pay next to nothing and the burden is falling on people who can't afford it and consequently their cities are collapsing. The fact of the matter is, you need taxation for a functioning society because business does not properly fulfill a lot of sectors and in order to stop wealth gaps from getting out of control and widespread poverty and misery, the rich need to pay a larger burden of that tax. It's hilarious how the wealthy convince the average normie that it's a crime to tax them more, yet, if they lose, they also convince you those losses should be socialized through tax write offs on investment losses and public funding for factories etc.They've convinced you that its right that we don't pay for your losses but you subsidize ours. I urge anyone reading this to think about that. The conservative party is a party of pathological liars who do not have your best interest at heart unless you own 1M plus in REITs and other investment vehicles.
