STRETCHING THE TRUTH

 Canadian families are surely happier because they are to receive their GST & PST Cheque benefit known as CGEB Canadian Grocerries & Essential Benefits.

Families would have them pay their bills first and shop for important basic needs from supermarket later if there is left over. For some families that's only few dollars to help augment payment for bills because the truth is the rent and mortgages are higher. 

TRUTH IS .... PST & GST accumulated in CANADA can be in BILLIONS OF DOLLARS in just barely a month. Imagine how much would be within a year. probably TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS because every time you shop every item, every commodity, clothing, basic needs, school supplies, computers, beverage, coffee, wines, house, vehicles, boats, even used cars and used boats, appliances,  hydro, TV & Internet and services have a corresponding taxes (PST & GST). You cannot really save extra money here in Canada. Sometimes your savings goes to paying for medicines. Or sometimes for buying brand new appliances:  microwave, coffeemaker, rice cooker, etc. or sometimes there is a need for new vacuum machine.

In the USA they have taxes too imposed on everything then add the exorbitant tariffs. How much tariffs they accumulated within only 2 months? BILLIONS OF DOLLARS almost close to trillion dollars. 

Is there a RECESSION? Not right now. People will have economic activity no matter what. They will have to spend to buy foods to eat. There will be employment during the 3 weeks soccer games World Cup because the restaurants, fast foods, and businesses will be OPEN FOR BUSINESS, hotels and motels will be opened for the long duration and they will have to hire workers to add to the workforce. It is after the games when you will see the effect  of  such games. The AFTERMATH. So wait for it.

I don't know why Mr. Poilievere was yelling about "full blown recession." Can he see the future? Every Canadian Prime Minister had bout with recession. Even during the former PM Harper had experienced such and they  shutdown the Parliament for a while but at least it's not thr. him when the pulp mills, saw mills and mining shutdown its business. The US Government had those recessions too after every war. 

FULL BLOWN RECESSION is an economic crisis. No budget allocated for any project. No economic activity, no plan or project whatsoever. It is a full stop of the economy, no progress and no productive ever is happening. Is that how he see it?

Somebody should have a TRUTH BOOTH. Yeah like those kids had in TOTAL DRAMA ISLAND. LOL Darn! Don't like a stinky place. 

The Roman Catholic has that TRUTH BOOTH its called CONFESSION BOOTH.
