SamCB posted topic March 31 Spec Tax Deadline

lpoutine,

SamCB has just posted a new topic entitled "March 31 Spec Tax Deadline" in forum "Victoria Politics".

----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's March 31- 11:40pm. I planned to declare my exemption at the last minute (as a mini protest of the idiocy of how this tax was applied).

I look for the letters that I've been keeping on the microwave for two months, and realize my wife has thrown them out. Probably weeks ago.

Am I screwed? Or is there leniency for late exemptions the first year?

Side note: how the f%^# can an "exemption" apply to 99% of people? An exemption is for the exception, not the rule.... sigh.

Oh my...



------------ QUOTE ----------
This story has all the elements of a fiction novel. Unfortunately it's real. Piece by meticulously researched piece, B.C.-based independent researcher Vivian Krause spent almost 10 years exposing the story. Every detail has been corroborated, including with American and Canadian tax records, together with documents and statements from the perpetrators themselves.

...

What would become a massively disruptive intrusion into Canadian affairs would take years and a large amount of money. Enter the Rockefeller Foundation, the Hewlett Foundation, and the David and Lucile Packard Foundation. They, along with environmentalist charities, poured hundreds of millions of dollars into the U.S.-based Tides Foundation, a murky organization that provides cover as a legal laundering service that can funnel donations into activist groups, without revealing the source.

...

But the American anti-oilsands funding effort didn't stop at encouraging opposition to oil pipelines. The Victoria-based Dogwood Initiative received millions of dollars from Tides Canada to run get-out-the-vote campaigns in the 2017 B.C. provincial election, including deploying a throng of campaign workers in the riding of Green Party Leader Andrew Weaver. After his election, the B.C. government would be in the hands of an NDP/Green alliance bent on fighting the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.

Money was also funnelled to campaign activists working to help the Liberals win the 2015 election. Vancouver-based Leadnow received directly and through the B.C.-based Sisu Institute more than $1 million from Tides Canada towards the objective of defeating then prime minister Stephen Harper's Conservative government, which supported expanding the oil and gas industry. Leadnow claims its campaigners helped defeat Conservative candidates in 25 ridings.

A MeeT veggie burger. It's a good thing Vancouverites are willing to share; Victoria will soon be home to the award-winning vegetarian restaurant chain's location number four.
