So it's OK to be outliers on low corporate taxes and no PST, but when it comes to supporting the vulnerable, we gotta make sure we are mid. Cool. |
Give them an asset test imo. That would be much more effective. I know millionaires that can get their income down that low. All of these old age programs are going to be gone or stripped down to bare minimum within 15-20 years. Just a final payout to boomers until the check has to be paid.

Frankly, let the feds take this file, they are burning through almost 20% of their budget on it already. Alberta does not need to generously give out more to seniors. They designed a system that is going to collapse with them. Getting OAS on top of dramatically underpaying for CPP for decades. #### em. Give that money to literally anyone else for any reason and its better than the mass amounts of collective asset millionaires getting 3-5 different cheques each month.
