The Canada Revenue Agency will be issuing the long-promised 'grocery rebate' payments to eligible Canadians on July 5. The food-inflation focused affordability measure is set to roll out to approximately 11 million low- and modest-income Canadians. Here's how much money those eligible can expect to receive.
These types of rebates are some of the least effective uses of government money.
This and tax rebates. They could have literally pumped the money into a crown corp grocery and it would have been more effective.
It’s the same thing with the stupid EV rebates. Pump that money into a subway/train system and you’ll get fewer emissions and less traffic. Maybe get VIA to finally get onto HSR.
