taxes when you buy stuff is what gets you in Canada

you have to pay 12% HST tax on most stuff

and gas is really expensive, over $5 a gallon, because of taxes

and for some stupid reason, prices are higher for everything even before the tax, the same pair of shoes you can buy in the states for $30 would probably cost you $40 in Canada for some reason

it takes more money to live the same standard of living in Canada

these are not insults to Canada, it is just the reality
