Carol Sheaves, a 67-year-old retiree from Moncton, New Brunswick, criticizes the Canadian government's proposed $250 rebate cheques for retirees, arguing that it's unfair and insufficient, given her decades of work and contributions to the economy.
Carol Sheaves of Moncton, N.B., who has worked for five decades in Canada, says it's not fair that retirees like her won't get the government's newly proposed rebate cheques .
The federal government announced last week a two-month GST/HST break on certain goods, as well as plans in April to give Canadians who made $150,000 per year or less in 2023 a "Working Canadians Rebate" of $250. Both measures are expected to cost a total of $6.3 billion. "Retired seniors represent a significant voting bloc and many are facing significant affordability issues as inflationary pressure eat away at our retirement income," Cole wrote in an email to CTVNews.ca on Nov. 22.
