Federal government tables GST holiday bill | Power Play with Vassy Kapelos

[@Epro95]

Keep the $250, I know you're either borrowing it or printing it.

[@shanghai_noon]

or stealing it from tax payers to buy votes

[@matti8894]

I’ll be donating that $250 to the CPC !

[@whatdoyouwantfromme1029]

Why not give it to food Bank ❓😝😝

[@amossimon3438]

Money is no more them food voucher. Don't get carried away with it.. The longer you have that voucher. The less you get for it..

[@shanespaargaren3137]

Yeah me too

[@whatdoyouwantfromme1029]

@shanespaargaren3137 I'm keeping my $250 😑

[@Martin-qm2lg]

Smart move so this crazy government is out!

[@johanneshoogenboom]

I would pay $250 to have an election. It would be an investment.

[@chadtosh6831]

Want to give real affordability?? Get rid of this carbon tax. Immediate relief for all of the citizens of Canada.

[@Lickymaballs]

actually there would be no relief as the stores would not be dropping their prices as it would allow them to keep the extra profit

[@AbeySampson-ow8pz]

Vassy now tell Canadians what happened to Liberals in Nova Scotia lost 17 seats out of 19. Liberals won only 2 seat, got only 6% popular votes on Nov 26th 2025

[@joycemclean9661]

Fantastic!

[@peterbutz642]

What Canada needs is holiday from Liberal’s NDP stupidity

[@tomcotter8138]

Justin I can feel myself getting DumBer just listening to you ! I’m 100 % ready to vote ☑️ you out

[@tonyfox7510]

I think seniors on fixed incomes are more in need than the workers earning $149,999

[@shawnsmith840]

Keep your cheques and the rebates and either get rid of the carbon tax so we all get a permanent break, or call an election!!!

[@rtorcato]

a prime minister that wasn't worried about about going to prison would've resigned years ago.

[@jkasias]

This is just sad at this point, and embarrassing.

[@MargaretEvans-ge6oc]

I am a Senior with medium income and so do not want added debt from this pause on tax. George.

[@Cnd531]

$250 2/3 of a bag of groceries. Fighting over absolutely nothing. This Is a waist of time and money.

[@debbyproulx3318]

Seniors may have gotten a boost in their monthly cheques but it hasn’t kept up with inflation or the repercussions of the carbon tax. I don’t blame them for being angry. And as for Trump, he will only implement a 25% tariff if our border continues to be insecure.

[@joycemclean9661]

$16 per week. 😅😅😅

[@bubbajay1934]

Keep the $250. I want my taxes decreased in perpetuity instead. Thanks.

[@KnowItAllsChannel]

I don't need support, I need the government out of my pocket!

[@Lickymaballs]

dram on as that will never happen in any country on this planet as we need to pay the politicians and government employees which includes the doctors and dentists and the cra

[@davidgiles1589]

I will also donate our $500 to the conservatives

[@Lickymaballs]

running back to canada's other master are you. did you know the conservaties and the liberals have been ruining this country since 1867.

[@ShirleyannBeithSam]

I’m a senior and I don’t qualify so not all seniors are eligible

[@FreedaPeeple-u8z]

I suspect most are not

[@aceallenk]

NO SENIORS ARE.

[@Sally-ih6ls]

Unless they are working seniors, seniors on CPP and/or OAS do not qualify Disability persons not either

[@kanuduh5234]

@@Sally-ih6ls Which is absolute insanity!

[@jmhqueens]

Big deal....a few pennies for junk food. Just to get his face in the news

[@AbeySampson-ow8pz]

Nova Scotians send very strong message to Justin last night election. it's time to go to Cuba , Liberals lost 17 seat out of 19. Liberals leader in Nova Scotia only got 433 votes compare to PC Candidate 5980 votes.

[@BoreasCastel]

This is like borrowing someone's credit card to buy them a Christmas present.

[@Karma-fp7ho]

So true.

[@markshawn6967]

It's better the government keeps GST, the price of every merchandise are double and no one cares

[@dariagrzybowski2202]

Keep the cheque Trudeau and call the election

[@olivergoncalves1217]

Nothing here for like, 90% of Canadians. How's about NO TAX ON GROCERIES for TWO MONTHS?

[@rayes7331]

Idk about your province but most groceries don't have a tax already

[@foingzap]

Groceries aren't taxed

[@Lickymaballs]

the only groceries that are taxed are already prepared foods and if that is all your buying then you need to learn to cook and save the tax on unprepared foods.

[@MargJorgensen]

This is an example of believing everything you are told and not using your own knowledge. Groceries are not taxed. Prepared meals, junk food and non food items are.

[@BarbaraCorbett-ze3my]

This guy becomes more unhinged, ridiculous and out of touch every day. His desperation is palpable. A complete and utter failure.

[@fringeFarmer22]

Vassey Kapelos, once again, you refuse to mention those on disability

[@girthbrooks6567]

This is blowing up in their faces like the carbon tax exemption for some but not others

[@myleswilson3118]

Pensioners living on scratch , but on the cusp of a higher tax bracket , might lose more with an adjustment ?

[@rayes7331]

This is dumb, it's just a shiny new object, what's the point of it if they're just gonna tax it back in a few months 😒

[@fionawildman215]

🤣🤣. OMG. How screwed is the gov!

[@yarrdayarrdayarrda]

Why should students with no income get a government bribe? Oh yeah, they are potential NDP voters.

[@Jgibbobc]

What a waste of time and billions in money in a vacuous attempt to create a wedge issue (again) and garner some votes.

[@HenryHawkyns]

I agree with Mr. Singh, we need to see real relief for Canadians, as in relief from the looney government we are suffering.

[@markshawn6967]

Every grocery stores already put high prices on every merchandise! Please go check what is going on

[@Marigold-m2]

@markshawn6967 Farmers require pay for work. As do, truck drivers, warehouse employees, store clerks, employees stocking shelves, etc. Or do you not think they need to live too? Your self-centredness is evident. Grow your own garden if you want cheaper groceries. No one is stopping you. Yes, you can do it, even if you work full-time. Many do. But not the lazy ones.

[@rancher6820]

What is going on when as a senior i get $717/month and a so called asylum seeker gets how much???

[@Martin-qm2lg]

Too much tax and spending! The only solution is increasing productivity and wages, not going further into debt! It’s all wrong.

[@forklaundry]

Who, but a senior citizen, would write Vassy a letter?

[@EugeneMolloy-r8n]

Liberals should take a look at what happened in Nova Scotia Yesterday

[@markrant1460]

Low income single seniors who receive CPP and OAS receive approximately $1600 ($400 a week) a month. As for the dental program, you have to have teeth and it only covers a portion of the recommended dental fees which most dentists charge above. Pertaining to the increase to the OAS that was !0% for those seniors who are 75 years of age and older.

[@ALOISC1]

Lower the GST rebate cheque to $200 and give it to everyone.

[@coreyvanular6195]

Flat tax for all Canadians. Get rid of HST and GST

[@thebatman8895]

Based on the list of items included in the GST holiday I will be lucky to save $10 as I buy very little of those items.

[@SuzanneDupuis-p9m]

i wish i could go back to work but i 70 health problems

[@davidestabrooks1641]

Ya that tax break and 250 is going cost 6.3 billion and more keep it all.

[@bryandepencier8443]

Please stop the inflationary spending

[@pattyzadow1867]

Can’t wait to donate the $250

[@Rakaamlil]

Help by resigning

[@aceallenk]

Granted the provinces should discuss President Trump's 25% tarif regarding the border. BUT lifting the provincial sales tax to appease Trudeau vote buying to try to get another four years after the state of which this country has fallen with him at the helm... I hope all the Premiers stand up and walk out of the meeting. Remember what he said when the Premiers wanted a meeting a few years back...exactly. Time for an election, not helping the incompetent liberals to continue their path of destruction and corruption.

[@whitepanther7041]

so long as ppl on welfare dont get it im alright with it

[@BoreasCastel]

It includes the 9-5 welfare of government jobs, so you must be opposed to it.

[@kanuduh5234]

But you're totally ok with the person who makes $149,999 to get it?

These are the clowns you have on your panel lol. No wonder nobody watches your biased garbage
