I don't think the Liberals will be reduced to 2 seats like Mulroney did to the Conservatives, but they could easily be down to 20-30 unless they turn things around massively from recent polling (which they won't, because they have zero credibility any more when they say they will fix problems - having been in power for 10 years, they own Canada's problems, and any solutions presented now are viewed as too little, too late).

I think if Trudeau resigned, it would give Liberals with Trudeau fatigue some cover to vote for them as an effective opposition to PP. A lot of people are convinced that Trudeau is needed to defend the Liberal Quebec caucus, but honestly, they are toast anyway.

Agree that it is a good move. There is a massive ego that needs to be stroked.

Perhaps using a different code would help me.

It might be less of an issue for corporate retailers who have centralized data management but for smaller retailers, re-coding or even just knowing what's in and what's out will be challenging. If the earlier link is accurate, if a bottle of wine for personal use is exempt but one as a gift is taxable, how the heck does a retailer deal with that? Imagine the line-ups at an LCBO before Christmas as the purpose of every bottle is parsed, or will they simply give up and key the no-tax option?

I don't know a lot of IT but know that, often, a 'simple little change', isn't.

I can confirm retailers probably dread these kinds of changes. Especially as it is unlikely to drive any truly incremental spending.
 
I'm a web developer, and worked for a retailer for 8 years. The changes will be tedious, but it's not complex.
