They don't work but they consume, so they still stimulate canadian economy.
They have big house so they could not eligible to apply for the low income benefit ( plus they don't want to-how much money that would be?).
They pay tax for their real estate.
Their kids generally go to private school and spend bunch of money for various course such as piano or dance.
They will go back to China when their kids grow up, finish university. so they will not ask for pension, plus how much would that be? do they care several hundreds dollars per month?
They are here to enjoy life not to eat for free since they have bunch of money feed themself up.
Don't use poor people's mind to judge rich people's life. Only those refugee or human smuggle be here eat for free. To some people, they really don't care about couple of thousand dollars per month.

加拿大是以当年收入而不是资产来征收收入税的, 这些投资移民就凭在加拿大他们那点利息收入不工作, 还不够1万元的收入税免税额呢(我想他们不会高尚到自动申报他们的全球收入, 按加拿大税法纳税), 而收入税是加拿大中产阶级家庭交的最多的税, 你搞个3百万大house也不过比中产阶级50万的house多交2.5万地税, 比中产阶级交的收入税低多了. 何况投资移民中真买3百万大house的占?%. 加拿大一年才成交多少套3百万大house?
加拿大的免费医疗福利养老金是靠中产阶级负担的. 再来一批纳税少的投资移民, 纳税负担不是更重了吗? |
