Burn my income tax demand letters. Keeps me toasty all winter

Looking forward to other Canadians chiming in (others being Scott?;)) I know if all else fails that cherished deduction open to us called BANKRUPTCY is still an option...

Wow. Where are we all hiding? Anyway long version is family rents a house and already takes max deductions for the ICU we had to put in, I live in the van

Just looked it up, average for 905 area code region $783,565 :eek: although I'm an hour from TO so a 3 bedroom older home c an still be had for a measly $400,000... Back on topic, no way to take a mileage deduction for Canadians anybody knows about?

Housing situation too complex to explain, but no...might be able to write off the storage units, I'm in a 20% ish bracket so every 100 dollars is only worth 20...Btw you do know what happened to house prices here?

Oh that's what you mean, I thought you meant extra...I add as many tanks as I think I need to avoid that one, until this year I never filled up in Canada Just looking for my proper max deductions, I don't like how they give the mileage deductions to buses taxis limos and self employed but...

Ontario sales tax on fuel? How does that work?

They're CRA now lol...yes federal, for all intents and purposes Ontario seems to only take a percentage of federal...the last advice I got from a CPA has them making up their own numbers and garnishing my gross pay...I filled out a form wrong and they are not changing it

Hi OVM long time no see...yes van, something about 2 seated vehicle with cargo area not eligible for deduction...

Americans can take a 54 cent per mile deduction (taxes), i've been told for Canadians in a commercial truck you can take ZERO. Any Canadians sucessfully done this? (I know this thread will probably be moved, but I'm hoping it will live long enough to get an answer) Thanks {leaving it here...

At home with the kids....just as well, hit a tree myself out WV/PA on I-79 in the storms a few day ago...thought I was OK, till I see the slowly spreading red oil slick under the van...

Guess I "found" a good one...10 years this year, 1st and only company I've ever tried Been so long i'd forgotten, paid a 2000 dollar fee for the guaranteed job when I got my alumnibunk E350 in 2006 the "guarantee" sounded good :facepalm:...with down payment, lease payments, and buyout I ended...

Just wondering - guess I work for an "old fashioned" company because I know nothing about these bidding things...I only sat for 3 days this year when available, letting them pick loads for me...technically my contract doesn't forbid me from finding my own freight...When did this change happen? I...

We're all living on borrowed time anyway Driverless trucks could mean 'game over' for thousands of jobs

Settled on 3800 :D, picking it up tomorrow during a snowstorm - should make the 30 MPH top speed a little more believable in Toronto traffic - wish me luck it's 90 miles away

Forgot to add: keep your old trucks till this settled out, just found out insurance is based on your purchase price here - saving 600 a month over what other drivers pay for 2 million liability...that and no monthly payments sure makes life easier...carriers that require 5 years or newer, don't...

I gave up worrying about rates in 2008. Had a dedicated run that got cut over 20 percent, and had to either accept it or quit. Cut my costs beyond what anybody would consider sane. Fast forward to now, I'm on the open road (route got undercut so far the carrier wasn't willing to accept it) I...

Thanks Turtle...Fords and dodges I had lighted up the dash, and I always wondered about the airbags...

Sprinter conversions Found this buried in our own forums I think I could copy that...

No runs today so I answered myself...maybe a fold down bunk? Please post a link to a do it yourself thread if you know any, or link to US or Canadian manufacturer this is UK
