Canadians should brace for multiple tax increases as they prepare for 2025. The Canadian Taxpayers Federation released its annual report outlining major federal tax increases coming in the new year. While many tax increases are upcoming, the federation highlighted increases to payroll taxes, the carbon tax, alcohol taxes, and the temporary sales tax holiday. The Liberals are raising the mandatory contributions to the Canada Pension Plan and Employment Insurance in 2025. The combined increase will cost Canadians up to $403 next year. https://tnc.news/2025/01/02/canadians-to-face-multiple-federal-tax-hikes-in-2025/

The prime minister has largely disappeared from public view since Dec. 16, when Chrystia Freeland — his finance minister and once his most powerful ally in cabinet — resigned in devastating fashion, with a public letter that criticized him. Trudeau spent much of the holidays at a ski resort in western Canada and is not planning any official events or appearances by the end of the week, according to a person familiar with his schedule. He has given no public indication yet of when he’ll announce a decision about his future. Members of the Liberal caucus of Quebec, Trudeau’s home province, have asked the prime minister to step aside, according to the Canadian Broadcasting Corp., following a similar declaration by those in Ontario. Some Liberal members of the House of Commons have gone public, including Toronto lawmaker Rob Oliphant, who posted a letter asking Trudeau to make way for “a new leader elected through a robust, open leadership contest.” Liberal representatives from the Atlantic provinces said Donald Trump’s imminent return to power in Washington makes it more urgent that Trudeau makes a decision. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/2025/01/02/trudeau-leaves-canada-in-suspense-as-anxious-liberals-urge-him-to-go/

One Quebec Liberal MP told CBC News that the consensus among them is that Trudeau should step down. Quebec caucus chair Stéphane Lauzon consulted with MPs individually over the holidays and communicated the caucus position to the national caucus leadership, https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/quebec-liberals-trudeau-1.7421140

Trudeau’s ‘vote-buying’ tax holiday fails to win over Canadians: poll! More than a third (35%) of Léger respondents said a temporary GST holiday ‘won’t help at all.’ Meanwhile, a whopping 42% hold the same sentiment of $250 rebate cheques for tax filers. 🇨🇦#NoMoreLiberalsAndNDP🇨🇦 🇨🇦#SayingTheQuietPartOutLoud🇨🇦 🇨🇦#resigntrudeau🇨🇦 🇨🇦#JustSayNoMore🇨🇦 https://www.rebelnews.com/trudeau_s_vote_buying_tax_holiday_fails_to_win_over_canadians_poll

Have fun with 'Net Zero', you Brit greenies . . . What Net Zero Means: Rationing, Blackouts and Travel Restrictions in the Next Five Years Earlier this week the Labour backbencher and Chairman of the U.K. Parliament’s Energy Committee Bill Esterson noted that ​people will have to adjust their habits to meet Net Zero emission goals for 2030. Such honesty, emerging as it does from the Parliament of Net Zero nodding donkeys, is to be applauded. What does it mean? Try this: * A 30% reduction in energy demand. After 2030, consider that all beef, lamb and dairy will be banned and “replaced by new diets”. * A massive 45% cut in most common building materials such as cement, along with a similar reduction in road freight traffic. * An attack on farming which will be remorseless with fertiliser restriction halving “direct emission” from the soil. To sum it all up: widespread rationing and blackouts along with food, holiday and travel restrictions, all within about 60 months.​ https://dailysceptic.org/2024/11/28/time-for-starmer-to-be-honest-about-what-net-zero-means-rationing-blackouts-and-travel-restrictions-in-the-next-five-years/
