Damn, why hasn't anyone else figured that out!How did Canada really do it? They drastically lowered taxes. True story.Are you fucking serious? I can't even respond at a level you might understand. Toyota and Honda both have recently expanded production in Canada directly because of the cost savings they get due to universal health care. That is the 'true story' you have obviously missed. Corporate taxes may be lower but any savings there are completely dwarfed by the healthcare savings. That is a fact. True story... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Those damned Canadians and their Universal Health Care.

Casper Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Are you fucking serious? I can't even respond at a level you might understand. Toyota and Honda both have recently expanded production in Canada directly because of the cost savings they get due to universal health care. That is the 'true story' you have obviously missed. Corporate taxes may be lower but any savings there are completely dwarfed by the healthcare savings. That is a fact. True story...I've searched and cannot find anything to back that claim. However, it's even noted in the article that the #1 contributor to Canada being number one on the list was the tax reform which drastically lowered corporate taxes. So not sure about this level that I might understand, but please cite your sources. Mine is the original article, and a simple Google search for Canada tax reform.
