@SQUEEKY2 When you say $100 per month, is this a separate item on your tax return, or are you figuring out the proportion of your taxes that goes towards healthcare? That’s a lot for a line item, I think.
When I first moved to Alberta, they charged a monthly fee of $45 across the board, instead of leaving it all to people’s income tax, then eventually they switched to income tax only, which makes far more sense.
Here in Quebec, there is a line item on our tax return for contributions to the health services fund – I don’t pay now, because I’m a student, but the maximum anyone can pay is $150 per year. This is a new thing as of 2010.
However, far more money is allotted from our taxes to healthcare – but I’m not even sure those numbers are easily obtained. I looked quickly just now, and couldn’t find them.
