Definitely a shock going from tax free to paying CANADIAN tax again. There is no excuse for us paying a 50% tax rate...basically we are getting screwed by the dispicable govt and their socialist money waste program. Whatever happened to S. Harpers platform sell of no tax on dividends??? Did anyone remember that one besides me? You only live once...there is no second go....do you want to be that far away from all the people you value...and be stuck indoors in that hot weather? After you've done all the stuff to do in Dubai or where-ever...then what? Do it over again? Its like a forced vacation where you can die with a small pile of cash in your pocket. And yes...its SMALL. If your gonna make millions, ok...maybe it would be worth it. But just to have an extra couple grand a month.....not worth it. But...if you got NO job...its a start....
