srs bullshit. i hope this comes back to bite theatres in the ass when people stop going.
it’s so fucking offensive because they have those recycle bins for the 3D glasses after the movie, but if you just try to use your glasses on another movie, they still charge you for the glasses.
So now taxes are higher on a whole bunch of new things like movie tickets! Unless they forgot them? Probably not.
That’s left wing politics for you. Oh and we get these things forced on us. Its never actually explained or voted on.
Want to know how they justify this latest new tax? They theorize that companies will have less paper work to process if there is a combined federal and municipal tax and those companies in seeing more profit will….wait for it…pass the savings along. Seriously. Has any fucking company in history looked at increased profits and said “time to lower prices!”. No.
In fact a lot of businesses just raised prices already anyway to account for the decrease in sales.
This was a joint venture/scam by our liberal provincial government and the Toronto Dominion bank.
Oh and natives don’t have to pay it. They were supposed to but they blockaded a road and the government caved. First comment from them: we’re going to lose about 100 million a year in revenue. But it was first sold to people not as a revenue stream but a job creation tool.
The real reason is post study they found people actually weren’t completely house poor so they decided to keep trying to get everyone to that point.
America should reject all left wing political ideas. If you want that shit come up here. I’ll trade places with you.
uh, wtf? this isn’t a left thing. this is a pure, 100% right thing.
“no new taxes” and the masses rejoice.
oh, but wait, what’s this new fee on my driver’s license? not a new tax? just a fee? fuck you GOP.
that’s what’s happened in florida, thank you very much. a very right wing state, where there have been “no new taxes” but several billion dollars worth of new “user fees” on shit. what you’re seeing there is a ‘tourism fee’. it’s bullshit, and isn’t left wing at at all.
The state of Minnesota is also loaded down with “User Fees” concocted by our governor Tim Pawlenty.
Don’t know the name yet? Not to worry, he has been working very hard for the last two years garnering favor with the GOP for at least a vice-presidential spot on the ticket; instead of doing his job here.
We have those too. In WV there’s a 5% municipal tax; on hard liquor and wine, but not beer. State sales tax is 6%, so if you buy liquor, you’re paying 11%. We’ve had pretty stringent emission rules for car inspections in our larger cities for decades. In the rural areas, as of now, there are only safety inspections. I’m sure that will change here too w/in a decade. Inspections can range from $10-$50 yearly, depending on state and county regulations.
Not from the U.S. The U.S. is one of the countries that still apply taxes at the register, and the 14.50 total makes me think it was a tax built into the price.
Let’s see… ah, Cineplex is a Canadian chain. Case closed.
But, feel free to go ahead and continue to rage about American taxes like trained monkeys.
You laugh, you pay. . .Wait for it. . .MONKEY RAGE! Is a refund available afterward to unamused movie-goers or would that be something deducted from one’s returns?
12.61 for Admission!!!!!!!! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

“pray” that all theatres burn down with all the ceos in them.
Those glasses are nasty. Somebody cultured all kinds of shit off of them. Take some clorox wipes with you or something.
I kept mine. I paid for ’em; I keep ’em.
My mother-in-law tried this too. Theater management chased her into the Target next door then called the police on her.
Fucking Canada.
Well I can see them doing that with Toy Story 3…
But I’d be pissed if I was charged the amusement tax for something like the new Twilight movie.
I’d be pissed if I saw the new Twilight movie.
/me plans a drive-by viewing
The Twilight movie is 3D?
And as of tomorrow….HST!
GST + PST = HST

It was put in p[lace by a very left wing government. Our right actually does away with taxes.
Your personal experience in a different country is irrelevant and extremely biased.
You lose.
Also are you really close minded enough that you don’t know our right still falls on your left?
wtf? is right.
Maggie is all about conspiracy theories and left wing takeovers lately.
If you want that shit come up here. I’ll trade places with you.
I’m having a difficult time believing you said that.
Who are you? Let Mr Hyena have his computer back!!!
Oh we also have separate liquor taxes and a whole bunch of new emission taxes that do fuck all except grab money from people.

Ours are closer to 45%.
Seriously.
Wow.
Fuck it.Lulz are still free on the internet.

Least I’m not the only one who took a moment to read the entire ticket…
Did my comment go whipping past you?
Obviously its Canadian, assfag. It says GST right on it.
You laugh, you pay. . .Wait for it. . .MONKEY RAGE! Is a refund available afterward to unamused movie-goers or would that be something deducted from one’s returns?
Canadian need to be taxed to make up for the 5billion spent for g8/g20 defenses… And to pay for the visit of the Queen.
1 billion.
We give more than that away to countries who hate us anyway.
That was just the same people who brought in the HST trying to draw attention away from their theft.
It didn’t work.
By that I mean the figure being trumped up in newspapers as a big deal.
So not amused.
Amusers, gotta amuse.
WTF!?!?! Tickets to 3D show here are 20.00 + silly tax and sales tax.
