I know what your getting at but this is typicall Canadian thinking. "Really, its only another $5 what are you complaining about".

We Canadians get nickled and dimed so much it makes me sick.

Gasoline - excise tax
provincial gas tax
provincial sales tax (if applicable)
Gst on all the taxes and the product.

But hey, its only a few cents for each one, why are you complaining?

Cell phone - regular bill
- 911 fee
- system access fee
- roaming charges
- data fees

But hey, its only a few bucks for each one, why are you complaining?

Airline tickets - regular bill
- Airport improvement fee
- Security fee
- Gas surcharge
- extra baggage fee
- booking fee
- insurance
- nav canada service charge
- GST

But hey, it's ok to add a few extra charges as long as it's only a few buck....why would you complain about a few bucks?
