I pay 5% taxes on pretty much everything that isn't food.

I also paid $0 to have 2 kids. That's the most fucked up thing out of all this

you saying you have no job?

We paid $0 to have our kid in the US of A, but that's because my wife's a nurse and in the healthcare workers union. Still she only got 12 weeks maternity, though she added 3 weeks vacation to the end of that to make it almost 4 months.

we are taxed a lot more as far as the "luxury" items goes. Booze/smokes/etc is more here. 26oz of booze $25-30 i would say. a 24 of beer is $30-40. when I buy cigs for mah weeed i ask for the cheapest pack and its like $6.50. Most people who smoke would never touch these. For a "good" pack of smokes is about $10 a pack. You COULD get native smokes (since they don't get taxed) but its usually filled with twigs and shit.

Our tax that we put on all of our goods is 13%. Minimum wage in Ontario is like $10.00/hr. It might be $10.25/hr. $8/hr for servers/bartenders/etc.

No. I live in Alberta. We only have 5% tax. Unlike the other provinces who fuck it shit up for Canada. We provide the country more in jobs and jobs in and incoming $$$$ than all the other provinces combined. Sucks for the rest of the country. Alberta is by far the best province to live in.

Of course I have a job. I wouldn't be having kids if both my wife and I didn't have careers

I highly doubt that dude. I know 2 families that did not like it out there and moved away from there. 1 being from there and 1 moved there years ago. I know lots of people who are there right now and complain about that shit all day long.
PLUS Alberta is where harper is from and home to countless conservative asshats..

Oil Dunk. That is all
