- They also have an extremely high income tax rate (50%+) and a VAT tax on all purchases (national sales tax). All of this for a "free" health care system. Dru - Bernie wanted me to forward this... (Maybe one day he will learn how to spell my last name! :-) ) Mike Thought I'd let you all know what my impression of Canada is. 1- The people are extremely helpfull and very friendly. 2- They are very curteous on the road. They will let you in to traffic. Only needed my horn once or twice. 3- The highways are very clean. No litter. 4- Reststops are almost non existant. Except in Quebec. There they had one almost every 50 or 60km. 5- Groceries are very high. Eggs over $2/dozen. 6- Gas- unbelivably high. Sometimes 90 plus cents per liter. You do the conversion.
