    You have been hanging around left wing buddies, who believe tax breaks are the same as spending for too long.

    If a chinese immigrant comes to Canada and starts up a business that makes a million dollars a year, lets say he pays 200k in taxes, even if the government gives him a tax break for 100k, he is still bringing in an extra 100k in taxes that never would have been here in the first place, on top of that he is creating jobs.

    I dont resent anyone who gets to pay less in taxes, in order to keep more of the money that THEY EARNED, so long as they arent coming after mine. Though I do resent the government for making a fucked up system where everyones taxes are different.

    I think Canadian healthcare must be a big part of why so many Chinese are coming here to retire. I mean, they have money enough to snap up condos in Calgary, so they have money enough to "live like kings" in China--except maybe for healthcare.

    If you have enough money to live like a king in china, then you probably have enough money to pay for better healthcare in China then what Canadians get for free from the government.

    One would think so, and yet here they are. Maybe they come for Canada's weather!

    Maybe they come to escape an oppressive government, I suppose that thought never came to you given the fact you love big government.

    Oh I doubt their shuffling up and down the sidewalk all day is interfered with any more in China than it is in Canada.

    LOL, only someone who has actually lived in Canada would get that joke, I lived in Brampton, so it was always the old Sikh men with the white beards, and their ceremonial daggers walking around the street all day with no particular purpose.

    East Indian, and Chinese Immigrants in the U.S. dont do that, not where I have lived anyways.
