Income splitting discriminates against single parent families
@4L9JMLL4yrs4Y
Yes, but bar income splitting if both spouses make over $75k annually
@9L879BPConservative8mos8MO
Yes, and married couples should save money on their taxes and receive benefits per child if their is a stay at home parent.
@9FD7JXT1yr1Y
Not knowledgable on this subject.
@9F5KMPV1yr1Y
Less taxes means less of a burden for families.
@9DW7GRS1yr1Y
eliminate tax on income and base the tax on financial transactions; dollar changes hands, percentage is sent to government.
@9DJVGVY 1yr1Y
Yes, but the money transferred over should be taxed at the same rate from who transferred it
@8K222LS4yrs4Y
no limit should be applied
@8V8LQD4New Democratic3yrs3Y
Yes family income splitting should be allow since the government wants to encourage stay at home parents and not provide universal child care subsidy to everyone not just low income.
@8V84Y2B3yrs3Y
Not enough knowledge on subject
Deleted4yrs4Y
Yes, but only if it results in tax discounts/refunds

Depending on the circumstances because everyone is different
@9CPNDNS1yr1Y
I feel like it depends on every family's situation.
@9CMY5KJ1yr1Y
Regardless, all taxes should be shifted to a land value tax

Yes, only for wealthy familles

@99WWQ7M2yrs2Y
@99WJQKQ2yrs2Y
It should be their choice
@98B4VMH2yrs2Y
No, each person's income should be taxed based on their earnings.

@96YCWJC2yrs2Y
It depends on how much is being made on either side
@96QWKXF2yrs2Y
@96QW3ZW2yrs2Y
End income tax. Taxation is theft.
@96LZ6W7New Democratic2yrs2Y
Yes, but the higher earning spouse should not go to the other spouse but the child directly.
@93WL6VF2yrs2Y
Yes, but income splitting needs to be well regulated.
@93CSFRDNew Democratic2yrs2Y
Yes to some extent, it is beneficial in some circumstances, but unfair to those with low income families
@92NSVSP3yrs3Y
I can see why it's done, as the government isn't made of money, but I could see this being detrimental to women trying to leave abusive situations.
@8YYMTXP3yrs3Y
Yes, and abolish income tax
@8VCNQDW3yrs3Y
Yes only if it does negative effect families
@3F8NK5J4yrs4Y
I'm a single parent, one low income in this household. This doesn't not benefit the thousands of people who are in the same situation, we are the one's who could use help.
@9D5HV3N1yr1Y
Every Canadian citizen of voting age should be taxed at the exact same rate.
@3F48NYCConservative4yrs4Y
Yes. We are a married couple, 2 kids, single income. It helps. After taxes my husbands income is not that much to survive on.
@3F4G8Q94yrs4Y
No, even Harper's finance minister disagreed, saying it benefited only a small wealthy minority of families
@3F557MG4yrs4Y
yes but only if there are children. Otherwise, living costs are actually higher for single people, so we don't need to reduce taxes for childless couples.
@3FBQBND4yrs4Y
No. Income splitting is unfair to those who do not have children.
@3FDLRJN4yrs4Y
No, it benefits wealthly mostly.
@3FDL53G4yrs4Y
No, income splitting does not help families where both spouses make similar wages. It's helps the weathy more
No, I support a change to the tax system and code which would render individuals and families untaxed. The Corporate Royalty.
