Americans aren’t the only ones who love to joke about their tax agency, as we can see in this skit from a recent episode of the CBC’s news satire show, This Hour Has 22 Minutes.
I have never had any first-hand experience dealing with the CRA, but it does appear that there are some similarities to our IRS.

From Argus Hamilton:
The Los Angeles City Council voted to require businesses to pay people fifteen dollars an hour last week. The two parties can’t agree on the terminology. To stress poverty, Democrats call it the minimum wage, and to stress opportunity, Republicans call it the at-least-you-don’t live-in-Haiti wage.
.
The Clinton Foundation admitted it received twenty-six million dollars of previously unreported donations from foreign nations Friday. The same day, Hillary’s fundraising Super PAC reported they are having difficulty raising money. It’s gotten so bad they may have to start reaching out to Americans.
.
Brooklyn-born Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders used his announcement Thursday to dwell on income inequality in America. He vowed to raise taxes and redistribute the wealth. The difference between death and taxes is, Democrats can’t think of a way to make death any worse than it already is.

Yesterday’s episode of NewsBusted had some good zingers on the Dims’ well deserved reputation for cheating on taxes and using corrupt means to raise campaign funds.

From Jimmy Fallon via NewsMax:
Hillary Clinton wrote an Op-Ed for a paper in Iowa about her plans to help the middle class. Middle-class Americans said, “Why didn’t you just say that in a speech?” and she said, “Because I charge $200,000 for a speech.”
.
There is a new reality show on CBS where a family must decide whether to keep $100,000 in a briefcase or give it away to another family. The show’s called, “We’ll Keep the Briefcase.” It’s the first 10-second-long show in history.
.
The NFL recently agreed to give up its tax-exempt status. It sounds like a big change, but on the bright side, the Philadelphia Eagles can still write off Tim Tebow’s salary as a charitable donation.
.
From Argus Hamilton:
Clinton Cash is a new book saying Hillary used her post as Secretary of State to greatly increase her family’s fortune via donations to the Clinton Foundation and high speaking fees for Bill. That’s not fair. She was only trying to close the income inequality gap between the Clintons and David Rockefeller.
.
Late baby deliveries have become quite normal here in the U.S. Today’s infants peek outside the womb and see the size of the national debt and they refuse to come out.
.
From Seth Meyers via NewsMax:
Hillary Clinton gave a speech at Columbia University this afternoon. She ended it the way Clintons always end their speeches, by saying, “That’ll be $200,000.”
.
Bruce Jenner will reportedly make a return to motivational speaking. And it’s going to be a little tougher, because now he’s only going to make 77 cents on the dollar.

An assortment from some of the late night talk shows, via NewsMax.
Letterman
It’s two days until tax time. I know it’s late, but there is still time to deduct this show as a loss.
.
I told my accountant a couple of months ago that I’m getting ready to retire, and he said, “Oh, no. You’re not getting out that easy.”
.
It’s tax season. When I woke this morning and realized it was tax season, I said, My God, didn’t we just pay taxes last year?.
.
Today is tax day. A lot of people are hoping they get refunds. And that’s just the folks here in the audience.
.
It’s April 15, tax day. The federal tax code is over 74,000 pages long. But stick with it because after page 72,000, it gets really good.
.
Hillary Clinton is making income inequality a central theme in her campaign. Yeah, for example, today she pointed out that her husband makes $300 million a year. She has to get by on $200 million a year, and that’s not fair.
.
Tax day was yesterday. And marijuana growers are complaining that they can’t write off a single expense thanks to federal laws. Well, apparently someone tried to claim the Phish tour as his home office and that’s not going to happen.
.
Jimmy Kimmel
For the next hour, would you say you are relying on me to host the show? So, in a way you are depending on me? I can claim you as dependents. It makes for a big tax refund for me.
.
The IRS specifically selected April 15 as tax day. They knew it was going to likely be a beautiful spring day and they wanted to ruin it for us.
.
A study says that traffic fatalities go up 6 percent on tax day, presumably because people are rushing to the tax office and doing their taxes while they drive. If you are just realizing it is tax day, don’t worry about it. The IRS is pretty cool about this stuff.
.
The only fun thing about filing your tax return is getting a refund. About 80 percent of taxpayers get money back, which is a weird thing to be happy about. That means you’ve been overpaying all year long. It’s like if someone broke into your house and the police recovered the stuff and brought it back and you said, “Oh, presents.”

From Conan O’Brien via NewsMax:
Tea party candidate Ted Cruz announced he’s running for president. He says he wants to abolish the IRS. So today Cruz was endorsed by Nicolas Cage, Wesley Snipes, and Willie Nelson.
From Argus Hamilton:
Mitt Romney said Friday that the biggest mistake he made in the last presidential election was not connectiong with minorities. His wealth was never an issue. People say that money is not the key to happiness, but Americans have always believed that with enough money, you can have a key made.
Hillary Clinton appeared at a forum in Washington sponsored by the liberal-leaning Center for American Progress Monday where she apoke about the problem of income inequality. She gets three hundred grand per speech. Democrats believe it’s okay to be rich as long as you just feel awful about it.
Israel spied on the U.S.-Iran nuclear talks and gave the intel to House Republicans. The White House learned of Israel’s spying on the U.S.-Iran talks by spying on Israel. The White House wouldn’t spy on Israel but they’re registered as a conservative non-profit so the NSA and IRS are all over them.
