Best Canada Day gift we could get, I hope he doesn’t go back on it
The part where “in 7 days we will tell Canada what they have to pay” is going to be interesting.
Bye Felicia
Thank God, he’s finally shuttin’ up
See if Drug Fraud can blink the lights a bit.
Recall the ambassador, cut the power, wait for the phone call so you can pass on the new rates (spoiler: it’s 1% higher permanently each time).
A TACO says what?
No problem. The boycott continues. If they don’t pay tax then they are stealing from us, so torrent away.
Jokes on them. Been torrenting their shit for a couple decades now.
I’ve never wanted the Digital Services Tax more than right now, lol.
So US bond sell off predicted on Monday boys
Not only are pig fucker mega tech profiting off Canadians tax free, and among the richest companies in the world, they are CIA/US empire militarist enablers/cooperators who will happily enslave Canadians to that empire. The fearmongering you are programmed about CCP allied companies, should be 1000x higher with US’s declared war on Canada, and their tech companies.
Their profit extortion alone (not even revenues) is sufficient to overcome whatever small surpluses Canada has enjoyed over US in good trade. It is categorically treasonous and sickening that Canada’s leadership continues military alignment with US.
The US has been really flaky lately. Have you tried rebooting it?
Why is it only 3%, what is it about being digital that avoids standard tax rates?
3 % of billions of things is more than 15% of millions of things.
Sure but you take 3% out of my $10 and I have $9.70.
But take 15% out of your $100 and you still have $85.
They can pay their taxes.
Thats false equivalency. Billions is the larger number and since a billion is 1000x a million, it would be 3% of their $10000 and 15% of your $10. So its their $300 tax vs your $1.50 tax. Sure they are still better off, however (un)fair that may be, but it was more in tax than you actually hold, by a wide margin.
Or course we could, and should, argue it should be reveresed, but thats just yelling in to the wind at this point.
[Canada] has just announced that they are putting a Digital Services Tax on our American Technology Companies, which is a direct and blatant attack on our Country," Trump said.
Taxing Meta, Apple, and Amazon for business they do in Canada is an attack on the United States?
We didn’t “just announce” it materialized three years ago and makes total sense to have in place from Canada’s POV. Dumbass Trump is wrong and lying or both - yet again.
Not sure what applies o amazon. They do have advertising/sponsored listings, but don’t know if tax applies on overall business.
Amazon Web Services is the world’s most popular cloud provider and where a massive chunk of their revenue comes from. Lots of people don’t seem to know about it, but their logistics arms is almost like a side hustle compared to AWS
Someone told him those bunker bombs were from Canada.
U.S. President Donald Trump says he’s pulling back from the bilateral trade discussions because Canada plans to move ahead with its digital services tax.
U.S. President Donald Trump says he’s ending all trade discussions with Canada while signalling he may impose a blanket tariff to hit back at Ottawa for imposing a tax on web giants.
Gotta earn his bribes. As opposed to doing anything useful or competent.
