菲沙研究所最新報告《2011年移民與加拿大福利狀況》(Immigration and the Canadian Welfare State 2011),根據2006年人口普查數據,對比新移民交稅款額及其獲得的政府服務價值,發現平均每位新移民「淨賺」政府超過六千元,相當於納稅人每年要為此付出163億至236億元。
Doesn't matter a $100K benz sold to Fobs or hard working people .. government will still COLLECT tax .... (unless u are native)
It is not a fair world ... sometimes I feel it.. say I am paying big tax, and the guy having dim sum in China town, is COLLECTING money, TAKING FULL advantage of medi service .. and pay tiny little tax .....
Well, the rich immigrants come to BC and change their $100k S class every year. The tax and premium ...

And the local first have to earn some 160k, get taxed on that to net 100k, then pay premium tax and insurance on his/her S class....? fair?
It's not only immigrants that's rich. At least over half the Ferraris in DT ain't driven by some FOBs.
Regardless, nobody forces people to immigrate here with a gun. But it's BS that some need to pay tax to use any services at all, and some just leech off the system despite being very well off. Not to mention that many of these same immigrants pushes up housing prices to bubble level prices, yet contributes relatively little (tax dollars) to improve local social services. At the same time will probably be the bigger contributor to panic-selling when the bubble burst. Shame on them all.
Well, the rich immigrants come to BC and change their $100k S class every year. The tax and premium insurance is already more than the income tax of an average local.
Those immigrants with no income still pay property tax and sales tax. Can't say that have no contrib ...

Very small amount .. in % say a $1M house, may be $5-6K property .. but since they have no income .. they are also taking money from us ...
Vs .. normal family here, say making $250K, live in a $1M house .. will pay ~ $100K in tax/yr!
I can see if someone live in Canada for whole life .. retired at 65 yr old .. he probably paid 40 yr tax .... then take advantage in his last 20 yr of so ..
Not that serious in Alberta, but I still know lots of people .. they don't work, nor never work in Canada .. so .. pay just minium tax, but take advantage on benifit ..
