As someone in the midst of busy season at a firm, yup it’s complicated! Call the CRA. Don’t like the answer? Call back. Repeat until you get the answer you like/want. Classmates and I came up with a way to make taxes better for the middle to lower class of taxpayers. Our instructor even told us it was completely feasible. Send me your book and I’ll share the idea with you too!

My sister is a CPA & this explains why she is grumpy. Haha. I rely on professionals to help me navigate taxes and have had the “professional” make a sizeable error that I (of course) ended up being responsible for, as I ‘should review to make sure the professional has done the work correctly’. Hmmmm.. Thank you to Neal for starting this conversation and sharing on this awesome blog.

Great post. I’m excited to read this book as it revolutionizes the way we look at taxes in Canada. I’m hopeful something can be done to make our system more accessible and less daunting. Neil, other than getting rid of filing yearly tax returns, what do you think the other priorities need to be?

Would love to read this book, it really makes no sense that I can do basically all of my tax return from my tax slips that I download from My CRA, they already have all the info! And if it’s just deductions that are used as justification for keeping individual tax returns (and if they are going to be sticking around) why not just have people apply for those deductions and upload that to My CRA as well and be done with it all? Unfortunately as someone who appreciates logic and efficiency the government does not seem to share those ideals.

This is a great article. I’ve watched several interviews with Neal and he is always an entertaining guest. I can’t wait to read his book.

I have had these same thoughts about the US and Canadian Tax systems. Everyone always looks at me like I’m a 2-headed monster, but it could be just as beneficial and waaaay simpler. I’m glad there’s someone seriously looking at this and explaining it. Putting this book on my reading list.
