Sadly nothing is risk-free. Even if the vaccine caused his death, would any rational person argue that avoiding the vaccine is the smart decision? 26,500,000 shots in the US have been administered. One died potentially due to the vaccine. There have been 26,500,000 confirmed cases of Covid in the US. Of those 429,000 have died. I'll take my chances with the vaccine. 0.0000004% is is hell of a lot better odds than 0.18%. Obviously the stats aren't perfect and not all cases of covid were identified and quantified but they won't be off by six orders of magnitude.
Agreed. I would take that vaccine if it was offered to me today. Unfortunately it won't be. Fortunately it won't be and there will be millions of further 'test cases' (for lack of a better word) ahead of me over the coming months.
 
Sounds about right.

it’s a damn shame for him and his family though. I hope they get a full and proper answers to their questions.
How many doses have been administered and how many people have died? It wouldn't bother me if one person in 30 million died, unless of course it was me.

If it's one in 10 million would you risk it? The risks are higher if you don't take it.

Canada's population is just shy of 40 million and more than 4 people die of something every day. The connect the dots procedure on a 60 year old haven't been done.

See post 9600. Roughly 1 in 26.5 million died from vaccination and 429,000 out of 26.5 million died from covid without vaccination. So simple (not quite correct math) shows your odds are 429,000 times better with the vaccine.
 
I wonder if the vaccine companies will be held accountable if any of the shots kill people

Said it hasn’t been determined yet the cause of death.



also..lots of people die after eating breakfast......don’t eat breakfast
 
I would pay 5 to 10 G for the vaccine if it was available now and I am sure many others would as well could pay for the whole program.

Not to be that guy, but this all depends on your age. A 10yr old has an infinitely better chance of surviving covid then an 80yr old. Most of those deaths are elderly, the virus is wiping out canadas pension liability...

I know the math isnt perfect. No child has been vaccinated. Lots of elderly have been vaccinated. If you could run the number based on age group, the older you are the better the vaccine odds are.
 
Whether you take it or not, you're going to be paying a lot more than that to get out of this.
No, his grandkids are. JT is spending faster then could ever possibly be recovered from Steve's generation.

EDIT:
Unless JT goes with inheritance tax. That may be the only way to quickly beat back the monster he has unleashed. I'm not saying I like that idea and it is fraught with peril, but that is the only way he can get a huge income bump for his slush fund (aka the entire gov't budget).

with more spending to come!

"build back better." the latest Liberal snake oil.

How do we bypass the tax?
 
don't die?
I like this plan...only if I can stay healthy though!

Seriously though, I'm sure there's a way to bypass it. I'm sure there are some loopholes that people much smarter than I can exploit to not deal with inheritance taxes. I remember reading about it somewhere that there are ways around it. Hence the generational passing of large sums of money to the next generation with minimal (if at all) tax.

It depends on the details of whatever garbage money grab JT comes up with.

As a first cut, a family trust can provide a mechanism for transfer that should work for some money. You can stuff the cottage in there as well (or even better as a sub-corp if you are renting it out) so your death wouldn't trigger the tax.

If you are really playing the long game and trust your kids (once they are legal adults), you could spin up a corporation that they own but you work for. You hire yourself out as a consultant at $250/hr, the corp pays you $40 per hour and holds (or even better spits out into a trust) the $210 (minus some expenses). JT can't tax that when you die as it was the kids corporation and therefore their money. That becomes their legacy fund and you can spend everything you have control over without worrying about whether you are leaving them something.

Friend in the UK "bought" his parents London flat and they rented it back from him. I think there is a timeframe where that works (eg. they didn't die for a decade after you bought the house so no tax but if they gift it on their death bed, full tax).

Now, for the most part, I think inheritance upon death is mostly a bad idea anyway. We have told all of the older generation that they have worked hard and we would like them to spend as much as they want. For some of the elders, they are planning on dying broke (from corporations setup in the caymans money), others have helped us out along the way (great option imo as money is much more valuable to me now than in 10 or 20 years assuming they have no use for it in the meantime), others plan on leaving us something upon their passing and are living frugally as they believe that is their duty (I don't like this approach, but it's their money so they can do what they want). If you can do constant smaller gifts to the kids (assuming you are in a position to do that) you may avoid the taxes. For instance buy a vehicle and transfer it to the kids.
