		<description>This tax is nothing but hurtful. I think it should be called the holiday suppressant tax. Who can afford a holiday now...not I.

		<description>Lol Norman Bates gets voted back in by his loyal zombie hoard of 1.5 million overpaid civil servants.   Rofl.  Ontario is an over taxed  joke.    I paticularly enjoyed the &quot;HST in BC&quot; section - um I think that part of the website should be removed now right?.  Too funny.  Almost time to bail out of this province before it implodes financially. Keep raising taxes boys - just like Rome and Greece eh?</description>

		<description>I just completed a 12 month review of my hydro bills.  The verdict is in: no savings by switching to off peak.  

Over the course of the past year I built a pv array and battery bank so I could commence to boycott Ontario hydro.  In the process I was able to move 80% usage to off peak.  When I calculated the cost of the average kilowatt overall every bill was the same: $0.20 per kilowatt hour.  This means ZERO savings. Any kilowatt hour you use costs $0.20 period.  No savings.   Nice little shell game they have us playing like a bunch of suckers.  Terms such as false and misleading come to mind for some reason.

 Boycott the 15,000 strong most of whom are on the sunshine list.  Solar panels are going to replace 90% of those jobs in the next 10-20 years.  The countdown is on.  I&#039;m boycotting them anyway possible.  I cut my usage by 75%.  By increasing taxes and prices people will use less and then you make less and get less tax.  Lemonade stand economics.  Smart move.  Increase it more and people go off grid.  Price yourselves out of the market.  Roflmao.  Love the stupid nanny state here.  Too funny.</description>

		<description>Ontario is on the brink of a financial collapse that is why they implemented the HST.  Decades of out of control spending and ontario hydro have brought us here.  Liberal gov solution = spend and tax more - even in a recession!  PC solution = sell critical public assets for pennies on the dollar (former Ontario hydro) they should have been barred from politics for that and imprisoned.  Conservatives = rich get richer.  I have never voted because I don&#039;t want to be a party to a criminal offense.  The sunshine list is about to push ontario over the edge financially.  The province is over $200 billion in provincial debt.  HST is bull. I once read somewhere that well managed government can offer tax cuts.  Great theory I guess.  Learn how to manage a budget and the sunshine list - hahaha that was a joke.  It will be funny watching you collapse - I will be off grid by then I bet hydro will be too.

		<description>This may be an old site however, I needed this info and had a hard time...

YOUR SITE FAILED IN 2 AREAS TO IDENTIFY IF I HAVE TO PAY NOW OR NOT - &#039;NO CHANGE IN TAXABLE STATUS&quot; doesn&#039;t tell me if I have to or not without going to look up prior years - this defeats the purpose of a quick list......

Who ever did this did it backwards as it requires looking up prior year to apply the logic.  Which was the problem in the first place.  A problem that is prevelent thoughout the tax notices......and information bulletings.  This lack of details would be unacceptable on my tax return - why do you consider it acceptale here?

Can someone please fix this!

S I M P L I F Y  _ tell us what is - not what it used to be!
Complete information!

Or does someone feel they need a job so make it so we have to call on the phone constantly and waste time and make mistakes?  

Let&#039;s improve the situation!</description>

		<description>I read somewhere that this tax has not really effected people.  

Are they meaning it hasnt effected the Rich? 

I am a single mother with a mortgage and I am sorry it has effected me in a large way. 

Last summer I would have paid $240 for a camp for the week for my daughter and because of the HST it is now $310. This is already a subsidized camp and I need to find 11 weeks a year for my daughter. 

So it may not effect certain people but it has me. 

The government doesnt understand this is the worst time ever to start taking more from us.  Gas prices and Groceries are through the roof.  I have had to budget my groceries down to $50 a week and that is not enough.  
 
The government should be ashamed of themselves as I am sure they are living a cozy life during these hard times. It makes me sick to my stomach.  

I have written Dalton twice but it doesn&#039;t matter, you can write and write and write your words are just that, WORDS!  

Thats great that we get $300 three times in the next year or two but really do they think that is going to offset the damage that will be caused because of certain things being increased?  

Life is hard to begin with and when I finally feel like I get my feet back on the ground the government pulls the carpet from under me.

I guess if I had 20 kids on welfare I might do well and not have any worries. Shame on me for having pride and wanting more for my child. I guess I should be teaching my child that it doesn&#039;t matter how hard you try to get by in Canada, that unless you are an immigrant or on welfare there is no hope for you.  

The Canadian Government sucks in all aspects not just this HST issue but everything!!!</description>
