‘Torontonians enjoy the lowest property tax rates in Ontario. Why?’ Cities in crisis, plus other letters to the editor for Jan. 29
: I can empathize with a letter-writer’s increased charitable contributions and the extra burden of a tax audit.
My husband and I were audited last year because our medical expenses were considerably more than previously. Every date, doctor’s name, address and mileage from our home was required. Fortunately, my husband keeps meticulous records. But apparently he had made a small error and, lo and behold, it was in our favour.
Does anyone at the Canada Revenue Agency understand that many Canadians live at some distance from large centres where medical specialists and specialized procedures are located? Do they understand that, as Canadians age, our medical expenses might increase as our medical challenges increase?Sackville, N.B.We had an increase in income and increased our charitable donations by roughly the same percentage. No new charities, just more money to the ones we always support.
The Canada Revenue Agency then demanded copies of all our charitable receipts. I sent them in, but also wondered why I was being audited for being more generous.
