I was just checking out Jimmy- seems he has 273 red notches of his own so perhaps he was just figuring on sharing the wealth. :lol::lol::lol:
He wasn't stating that the province didn't get big enough handouts..... he was implying that YOU didn't receive big enough handouts from BC so you moved to a province where you could get bigger handouts.
The restrictions are initiated entirely by the municipal government or the local fire association. CB, as usual, ignores context. Since this is about tax credits and the Canadian government has no requirements to become a VFF, the canadian government is not giving "special status" to anybody.
Cute baffle gab. Applying requirements, excludes portions of society.
You can try and dress up your endorsement of that any way you like, but in the end, you just look like a special interest shill.
That's you and CB from last night...or don't you remember. I don't know whether I should be flattered or creeped out that I'm of such importance that you and CB would invest that much time in me.
The Canadian government does not apply requirements. If you have evidence to the contrary, feel free to share it.
I just followed your ground rules.
I would imagine between your admitted stupidity and blatant hypocrisy, you wouldn't be able to grasp that.
You selective neg reps are quite telling. In fact, they show a serious fixation. I'm creeped out by your stalking behavior. But given your abusiveness, and allegations by your wife of abuse. It doesn't surprise me, that you anger gets the better of you, even in virtual environments.
If you have evidence that I said Canadian gov't applied them, feel free to share it.
As it is, VFF associations requirements, and municipal (gov't) legislation, excludes portions of the populace.
I can understand how you would want to fabricate that I said the Canadian gov't, in an attempt to avoid accepting the truth.
The discussion is about tax credits. Your claim is that these give people "special status". I was under the impression that you knew how the system worked. I guess I just overestimated your knowledge of the issue.
No, I stated tax credits for one portion of the populace, excluding the majority, gives that small portion a special status.
I've already proven that there are requirements that exclude a fair portion of the populace.
Although I'm not quite sure why it's so hard for you to admit you endorse that sort of thing.
I'm not surprised that you would want to try and manufacture something I didn't say though.
I'm aware of what you have said. The tax credit is not for "one portion of the populace" as the Canadian government has no requirements for being a firefighter. If you have evidence to the contrary, feel free to post it.
Correction, proven.
Correction, volunteer fire fighter, lets remain consistent and focused please.
The fact that there is no national requirement, is irrelevant. There are legislated requirements that exclude a fair portion of the populace.
Thus giving a special status to a select portion of the populace.
Why would I have to provide evidence for something you fabricated?
Actually, just about anyone can volunteer to be a firefighter. The main prerequisite is a body that works. After that there is a matter of availability, location, etc. and training and that's when people start being filtered out.
As for going into burning buildings, it isn't a matter of whether one is in their right mind or not. It's a calculated risk and there are times when we won't even go into a burning building.
Sorry, it isn't irrelevant. The fact that it doesn't fit your argument, doesn't make it irrelevant.
The fact that you think it fits your argument, doesn't make it relevant.
It doesn't matter that the Feds gave a tax credit, to a group, that a lower level of gov't, have legislated requirements to be a part of.
The municipal requirements exist. The Federal tax credit is applicable to those that meet those requirements.
Thus you endorse giving a special status to a select portion of the populace.
There are SOME tax credits and exemptions applicable to almost everyone. Other tax credits are extremely narrow in focus. So yeah, some tax credits ARE for special interest groups. The biggest I can think of ATM is a recognized religion.
Of course they are. It really is quite simple. Only some people would rather eat glass than admit that.
I guess if one was to use your silly argument, Air Canada pilots are given "special status" because they are being paid to fly airliners and not everybody in Canada can fly an airliner. LOL too funny.
It isn't my argument, it's yours.
I'm not surprised you find that silly, although I'm not aware of any tax credits that pilots get.
That doesn't seem to be CB's issue. It is that they have "special status", but at any rate, they most certainly would get tax credits for their schooling. Of course, we could go right to the horses mouth
Tax Deductions List for Flight Crew - Airline Pilot Central Forums
Granted, these are tax deductions and not tax credits but not every Canadian would get them so, according to CB, pilots have "special status".
