The bottom line is they impose it to put the money in thier pockets. They give you an excuse on why they do it, and then they laugh with thier government friends while they're playing golf.

Actually its more than just putting money in their pockets. Say if such duties or taxes did not exist. In the short run, this would expose the Canadian Industries inefficiencies. The american (or whatever country) would dominate the industry by using their competitive advantages. Thus, putting Canadians out of work. The government does not want to do this because then they obviously would not get re-elected.

Wait, so they take your taxes to get your own mail so that you'll have a job, so that you can pay them income taxes so that you can re-elect them?



Wow, that's fucked.

damn thast deep :o

Canada has some fucked up principles....not to mention they are french...

BTW: WTF is a OUI? Did you really mean DUI?

Re: crossing into canada with criminal offenses?
 

Different states have a different term for it.

OUI- Operating under the influence
DUI- Driving under the influence
DWI- Driving while intoxicated

My brother is in cop school, he told me what the slight differences are, but you are fucked with any of them.

Re: crossing into canada with criminal offenses?
 

you can get an oui with riding a bike, tractors, anything that you can operate and kill someone. thats how they see it here in nebraska. The bike thing is kinda fucked up but if you were that drunk I don't think that you could even ride a bike
