Yea but which one 2 to 4 or 4 to 2. Everybody has a ratio,

I usually go for Chinese women . It as nothing to do with body type temperament attractiveness or cultural differences but with the fact that I can say a few things in mandarin ....say what kind of massage or service I want give compliments when they re deserved and even sometimes when they...

I am still waiting for Cloud 500 to explain 1) how a tax that citizens can opt out of can still be a called tax and, 2) if a tax is essentially a theft , how he can be in favour of the Fair Tax scheme proposed in the USA Emoticons are too cryptic for me to take as his explanation(s)

I DO NOT have to answer anything. I am not Priceline, not Holiday Inn not in the hotel business You initially made it sound as if Holiday Inn invented a phony tax you had never heard of . I showed you that such taxes do exist in USA.The rest is none of my business .Happy New Year.

That is the way you look at it you seem to have a predisposition to believe that Canadian Holiday Inn is crooked but not American priceline and that the City of Montreal would refund Holiday Inn or even that it realised there was this suspected double taxation if there ever was. You have no...

Cloud500 wrote I believe referring to me saying: ''You do not know what theft means''. I tried to paraphrase in my earlier post the relevant provision of the Criminal code which actually reads as follows: 322 (1) Every one commits theft who fraudulently and without colour of right...

Conclusion there could be a problem with Priceline transparency. But as far Chinatown Holiday Inn is concerned they did not pull a Mexico style shakedown on you . When I used to travel to Quebec City, my assistant did the booking with the hotel or with the travel agency my employer dealt with.

Cloud 500 wrote ''There were no income taxes before 1917...'' what he means is that there was no Income Tax Act. My point about the seignorial system is that there a was already then a form of Tax on the gross income in that the products taken to the seigneurs mill such as grain was not all...

Eager Beaver seems to have been lucky to have paid such a tax only once in the past twenty years because according to this Wikipedia article this Mexico style shake down called hotel tax is also common south of our border.At least one of us is now enlightened . Happy New Year to everyone and...

Maybe this so called hospitality tax had come in force in Montreal very recently 20 years ago .I am surprised that Eager Beaver has not seen it since. I have paid it in Quebec City many times for stays in reputable hotels on business trips .It could be used to fund promotional expenses for the...

That is my point. The state takes the money through Incomes taxes ,customs duty, sales taxes GST, tempo fees, property taxes hospitality tax, inheritance taxes etc. Once it has the money, the way it got in the Treasury has no incidence on how wisely or fairly it will be spent. On this Fradi...

Fradi first post started suggesting some one seeking enlightenment about being overtaxed in Quebec could have a problem. in the following terms :'' I think if you need enlightenment that you are being way over taxed in Quebec then you have serious problems''. He used the pronoun ''you'' in...

You have not read my post carefully or I maybe was not clear enough in which case I apologize. My post was NOT a comment on or expressing an opinion on whether the Quebec government is or has been spending its budgets wisely. You are dragging me in area of discussion where I have not...

In Canada there was a form of income tax way before the 20 th century.It was a tax on gross income not on the net profits. Under the french seigneurial system the seigneur had the monopoly on owning and operating a mill.The farmer (censitaire)had to surrender part of was being milled to the...

This type of Bylaw has been around for years . The people who use the streets and sidewalks as their private snow dump should be deterred. from such egoist uncivility . I am for sustained enforcement here is why....More by-law enforcement and the higher the fines equals more deterrence and...

J'ai déjà vu neiger. It makes sense. A special permit only allows the City to recoup the cost of carting away that extra snow. It makes it more difficult for people in general to use the sidewalks, park in the street and it increases snow removal costs to the City. There is more...

[I am glad to see that Cloud 500 has again the use of his keyboard, I respecfully invite him to reply to my post(s) with more than an emoticon. If I am wrong I do invite him to educate me.
