Pouching and canning
“I find that this pocketing of money in the wallets of Quebecers is much more a canning. We will continue the failures in education, health, transport, and so on. This is downright irresponsible and shameful. »
Alain De Lisle
Heartless
“And no help for the less fortunate in Quebec who have to deal with violent and suffocating inflation! What a shame ! These tax cuts clearly benefit the rich. The CAQ is heartless and irresponsible. »
Sylvie Merchant
Happy taxpayer
“I’m happy with the announcement of the tax cut, it’s good for morale. »
Andre Giroux
lean stimulating
“The Minister of Finance is betting that this measure will stimulate consumption. I don’t understand how earning $300 more a year is going to increase my consumption considerably, as the minister says. »
Zakaria Bouchlih
Keeping promises
“Excellent when a government respects its commitments and promises. The other parties should take it as a model even if they do not share the same objectives as the CAQ and who are scandalized because a political party respects those who voted for it. A little logic in their comments could one day interest us, perhaps? »
Pierre Hurtubise
The obsession with tax cuts
“Why do they want to reduce our contributions so much when so few taxpayers ask for it? Of course, we want to keep a promise. But we thus respect the easiest to achieve. It will be more difficult, if not impossible, to honor larger promises such as those made in health and education, especially since large sums will have been thrown out the window. Really difficult to understand and accept. DAMAGE ! »
Carol Couture, Montreal
starve the beast
” Cheer ! Cheer ! Cheer ! The only way to reduce bureaucracy, red tape and programs that do not serve the public is to remove the source, which is taxes. We still have to make our public service efficient, and that’s not for tomorrow. One thinks of the SAAQ and all our CSSS-CIUSSS who pass the paper or the plump organizational charts. »
Luc Jodoin
Back to austerity
“Completely irresponsible in this turbulent time. Inflation, war in Ukraine, financial crisis in the banks, education and health in disrepair. The government is depriving itself of the means to launch the construction of affordable housing. Finally, if Quebec falls into recession, austerity will come back into fashion. »
Jean-Pierre Berger
Finally comparable
“Finally a government that compares us to the taxes of other provinces… To be an attractive province for high incomes and companies, income tax and other indirect taxes must be attractive, which is not yet the case. »
Jean Aufranc
$500 for life instead
“I’d rather the government keep my $370 and invest it entirely in government procedural efficiency…I’m pretty sure it would bring me $500 a year for the rest of my life. »
Thierry Lavallee
Recognize effort
” I completely agree. Injecting money into hospitals does nothing. We have seen it in the past, it takes a complete restructuring, the same thing for the other institutions. Finally, we recognize the effort of the middle class. »
