Don't know about the tax, I have not had to pay anything since I have been here. Because I bought a quarter section I qualify as a farmer, this allows me to offset earnings against the farm. I have farm trucks and run them on farm diesel etc etc, farm guns too, I need them for predator control . The accountant tells me what to do.
People in Canada do not know what hard work is. Things are very different over here, it's really laid back and the people are friendly, so much so that I first thought that they were taking the piss.
The gov't here ( due to the oil ) has so much money they don't know what to do with it. They recently had a sceme to train farmers to do other things than farming. I took a look at the list of options but was not interested in what they were offering, and I told them this. They asked what else would I like to do, and I told them I wanted to get a pilots licence. They paid for all my flying lessons and the ground school, and paid for all my expenses on top.
