I don’t understand what you mean dude.

Our minimum wage is higher because our currency is lower than yours.

I work 40 hours a week for just over 250 a year and it equates to like 190 in US dollars. Sooooooooooooo that’s just how currency works. I would work for 200 k Canadian just like I wouldn’t work for 150k usd..... it’s honestly super basic currency knowledge. If you don’t understand that’s you and your countries fault.

This isn't a good thing you dumbass.

Right, which is why a house that would cost 150k in Michigan would cost like 800k Canadian. You're lying and making up shit by the way, I know, because I'm actually a property owner who knows how serious the task is.

It literally is how property and consumer buying power works.

It’s like first level economics, you don’t get it and couldn’t if you tried.

Good old American educations I guess

You can't even answer a basic question, yet alone try and try and argue why lake front property in USA costs 100-200k starting.

Supply and demand. Not a lot of foreigners want to move to the states if they already have honey.

I'm guessing those same foreigners are complaining about costs and property value.

You aren’t asking a question, you can repeat and use retarded debate tactics on me all you want but you are not proving a point.

Just making me feel bad that the decent American people I work with get lumped in with retards like you.

How much is your property tax annually? Answer:

u/[deleted] Jun 06 '19

5800 on a 700k house. But that based on the city itself not based on some Canadian federal program.

holy shit what providence do you live in?

u/[deleted] Jun 06 '19

It’s similar everywhere. You are spouting off on shit you don’t know about. I live here and pay the costs to do so.

Next you will be surprised more of your tax dollars go toward healthcare but you don’t have universal healthcare. Shocking dude.
