@BOBF_5970 So buy Canadian at what cost Bob? I went to a canadian tire store a while back to order a CTek battery charger....price quoted 200+ dollars.....luckily the cashier whispered....don't buy it here......55 dollar's across the line.Square that one Bob. Look at the price difference on books and magazines.We have cars that are made in Canada that are less expensive to buy in the US..how many examples do you need?....I would love to be a good canadian and buy at home but with my pockets being picked clean at every corner I'm finding it tuff.Take this road toll idea.....we keep hearing how well it works in other parts of the world......well here is a question.These other parts of the world rely only on road toll right? In BC they want to have road toll's on top of all the other taxes. I'd agree to this.Toll the roads but give me back all the other stuff.They won't do that because they will pigeon hole them selves into a corner.
I understand what your trying to say Bob but it's time we look at why people are having to cross the border.We all know people approaching retirement that are looking at other countries to live in.Why?.......their money will go farther.
