Canadians are facing a harsh reality, one that has been overlooked for far too long: the government is taking almost half of what working individuals earn. When you work tirelessly—come rain or shine—you deserve to keep what you’ve earned.

It’s time to confront this uncomfortable truth: the current system isn’t serving the people who keep this country running; it’s benefiting those who sit behind desks, shuffle papers, and make decisions disconnected from the struggles of the working class.

Consider your paycheck—how much remains after taxes? Perhaps it’s 60%, or 50%, or even less, depending on where you live. Let’s be clear: this should not be anyone’s reality. The government should not take such a substantial portion of hard-earned wages.

Why should anyone—especially those not working in the trenches—have the right to claim nearly half of your earnings? The government argues this is necessary to run the country, but should this burden fall on those already stretched to their limits?

The answer is no. This is unjust, and it needs to end.

The Reality of Taxation: What’s Really Happening?

It’s not just about income tax. Working individuals are taxed from every angle. You can’t buy groceries without paying sales tax, or fill your car without incurring fuel taxes. Every bill you pay or purchase you make comes with hidden taxes. And then there are property taxes and endless fees.

What We Deserve

What we deserve is simple: the right to keep what we earn. We deserve to see our hard work reflected in our take-home pay. Each time you clock in, you invest your time, energy, and sweat. That time is yours, and it should remain in your pocket.

It’s time to stop taxing the paychecks of those who do the work.
