I only get a discount on coffee at McDonald and on thursdays at Shoppers drug Mart....I thought you old people got a tax break at the register? Non?
You don't live on a res, the Status card is useless, unless you want to get a PO box on a res and be sneaky. Not my cup-o-tea.
Even the Bass Pro has signs at the register now, directing all 'tax exempt' purchases, to customer service. Where a well trained customer service rep, will ask for drivers licenses, to prove res residency, and eligibility.
The across the board tax exemption myth, is just that, a myth.
But when it comes to Natives...I see them hand their cards when they're in front of me at the check out...and they live in town....not in Moosenee.
I never asked anyone what the deal was....If they get something out of it ....good for them.
