I didn't run this through Snopes.com   but the .55 cent raise is probably correct

 

 

 

    

            Has everyone decided how they will spend the 55 cent a month increase in our OAS at the end of January?

I am still deciding cant buy chewing gum, bag of chips, Big Mac, stamp sheesh what can we buy for this grand increase???

Sad but true!!! 

 

Isn't  this  the truth!

 

 

Someone please tell me what is wrong with all the people that run this country!!!

CONSERVATIVES & LIBERALS & NDP, say "We're "broke" and can't help our own

                              Seniors,

                              Veterans,

                              Orphans,

                              Homeless,

                              Etc.,???

 

In the last few years we have provided direct cash aid to:

                              Hamas - 351 M,

                              Pakistan - 2 B,

                              Libya   1.45 B,

                              Egypt - 397 M,

                              Mexico - 622 M,

                              Russia - 380 M,

                              Haiti - 1.4 B,

                              Jordan - 463 M,

                              Kenya - 816 M,

                              Sudan - 870 M,

                              Nigeria - 456 M,

                              Uganda - 451 M,

                              Congo - 359 M,

                              Ethiopia - 981 M,

                              South Africa - 566 M,

                              Senegal - 698 M,

                              Mozambique - 404 M,

                              Zambia - 331 M,

                              Kazakhstan - 304 M,

                              Iraq - 1.08 B,

                              Tanzania - 554 M,

With literally Billions and they still hate us! In total Canada spends over 5 Billion a year on direct cash support of

foreign aid, and 20 Billion on Immigration & Refugee programs.

 

Our retired seniors are living on a 'fixed income'. 

Do they get any breaks while our government and religious organizations pour hundreds of billions and tons of food to foreign countries!

 

We have hundreds of adoptable children who are shoved aside to make room for the adoption of foreign orphans.

 

AUSTRALIA, UK, THE USA & CANADA - countries where we have homeless person, children going to bed hungry, elderly going without needed medication and mentally ill without treatment... Etc.

 

YET- We still allow illegals & other free loaders on our shores, while we are lining up with food, clothes, bedding, doctors and medical supplies for them.

Imagine if the "GOVERNMENT" gave 'US' the same support they give to other countries.

 

Sad isn't it?

There is nothing in Snopes.com...but there was a newspaper article about the increase.

You're right Carl about OAS being increased (0.1%) which is .55 cents.......and that's a MAXIMUM increase.

 

http://www.theguardian.pe.ca/News/Local/2013-12-22/article-3552168/Canada-Pension-Plan-increases-by-0.9-per-cent-Jan.-1/1

 

Old Age Security benefits, which consist of the basic OAS pension, the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) and the Allowances, will increase by 0.1 per cent.

These payments are also based on the CPI, but are reviewed quarterly (in January, April, July and October) and revised as required to reflect increases in the cost of living as measured by the CPI.

The maximum basic OAS pension will increase from $550.99 to $551.54 per month.

Doing the math...........$551.54 - $550.99 = .55

So it looks like the rumors may be true,

My  cowl tag went to the grave with the original owner.

she was buried with a "memento" from car 

She loved the car and always love to tell the story of how she won it from the York Lion's Club for a 50c ticket.

I still have the Protect-O Plate and the Warranty Card !

80 year old lady (with a cane) comes into the dealership today complaining about the tire wear on her Chrysler 200 (new car tires only seem to last about 45k) 

While we are on the phone with the tire manufacturer she goes into the showroom, spots a black Challenger RT (with the red RT stripe) and buys it!

A new twist to the song "Little Old Lady from Pasadena". She's the "Little Old Lady from Charlottetown"!

 She would have been in her 30's when the original 70 debut.  How  wild  is that?

Actually her son came in later and said "It's her money. Once she sets her mind to wanting something there's no changing it".  I bet he'll be more than happy to drive her to all of her appointments now! biggrin

         I had that happen when I was selling Mopar    A  70's man bought a Black Dodge Charger out of the showroom   I came back a week later when the son found out    Poor old fellow was just starting  Alzheimer's  I kept my 150.00 commission  disbelief          from a tire complaint on a  econo fwd  to a expensive Challenger ??    somethings off   Dealer principle should have got involved
