Budget Cheapskates


Charity must begin at the beaver lodge, as it sure as heck doesn't come from the miserly muscrats at the beaver dam(n) in Ottawa!
Here we are teetering on the edge of a bigger waterfall than the one on the mighty Niagara, and the government throws us 112 loonies to buy a leaky lifeboat. Those who earn $75k get a massive tax cut of $198 loonies. This won't even heat the lodge for a month this winter!
Boy, the spin they put on this generosity would make us think that as soon as we spend these crumbs from their tables, the whole economy will "snap" back into place. The only "snap" they will hear from our beaver lodge is the sound of our door closing in their face.
