#GSTaxBreaks benefit the largest spenders most, meaning the millionaires get the biggest benefits.

While trickle-down asks the rich to spend more, trickle-up efforts, such as #GSTCredit refunds trusts everyday people to spend better— like how COVID cheques put 88% of the money back into the economy

The new Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit (formerly GST credit) offers a one-time top-up and a 25% boost for five years—but many modest-income families won’t qualify. Exempting the first $25,000 of income would be better. #CanadaGroceriesBenefit #GSTCredit #CostOfLiving #TaxRelief #Groceries
