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.
Maybe, but I don’t think so. I think it’s being done as an adjustment to the GST rebate and that goes to only one member of the couple.
I don’t have children, and my spouse only eats about 1/6 of our food (crumbs, essentially), so it makes perfect sense for the couples rebate to be only that small fraction more than a single person’s, rather than being 2x.
I agree completely! I think the system sucks, but that’s how it currently operates. And always will unless we’re going to hit the streets in mass rallies and protests.
Oh, I see. Either way it seems to me like it should just be # of adults times $ dollars.
