Pouria Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Can't even begin to tell you how much Americans living in Bellingham and even Mt. Vernon and Burlington hate Canadians. They don't look at us as a positive to their economy until told/reminded. Trust me on this, I used to live there. Still have plenty of family there. Even ex Canadians and ppl married to Canadians make fun of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 So the taxes in Canada/Bc are too high? Want equal prices with the States? It can be arranged just do the following: get rid of universal medical care get rid of ICBC get rid of bc Hydro grow Canada's population by 10 times. Feel free to add to the list of things that need to go to become our southern neighbours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sedated Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Price gouging has been going on forever. I think companies just saw the whole GST/HST thing as a reason to sneak in raising the prices on things so people would blame it on the tax stuff or think it was because of that. The cost of milk alone is a real piss off. Maybe if it went to the farmers and stuff that made it, but it's going to the greedy ass companies selling it for way more than they have to.

hudson bay rules Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 The dairy industry is also heavily subsidized in the US, hence the lower prices on cheese, milk etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
