Best Ever Beef Stew

  If you’re looking for the ultimate beef stew, the “Best Ever Beef Stew” recipe is a standout choice. It’s rich, hearty, and packed with tender beef, carrots, mushrooms, and potatoes simmered in a flavorful wine-based broth. Why This Recipe Stands Out Deep flavor base: Browning the beef and vegetables builds a savory foundation. Wine & tomato paste: Adds richness and complexity to the broth.

Liberals' GST Break Expected to Pass Today

 

Legislation to create a two-month-long GST holiday is expected to pass today in the House of Commons. The bill, introduced by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, aims to provide temporary relief to Canadians by eliminating the GST on a variety of holiday essentials from December 14, 2024, to February 15, 2025. 

The GST holiday will cover items such as children's clothes and toys, video games and consoles, Christmas trees, restaurant and catered meals, wine, beer, candy, and snacks. The government estimates that a family spending $2,000 on these items could save between $100 and $260, depending on the province.

The NDP has agreed to support the bill after Freeland separated the GST break from a proposed $250 rebate for working Canadians, which the NDP wants expanded to include non-working seniors and people with disabilities. The bill is expected to pass with the help of the NDP, despite opposition from the Conservatives, who have criticized the GST break as a "cheap gimmick".
