He has to file the American first and then that payment is subtracted from the Canadian. For the past 6 or 7 years fling this way, he has not had to pay Canadian income tax. They are tax neutral. As seniors, we pay nothing for BC Med.

I'm surprised. I would have thought that Canadian taxes, which include universal health care, would be much higher than US taxes on an equivalent income.

Am i missing something?

Here's an new release from the Fraser Institute, a conservative/libertarian Canadian think tank, with a link to their annual report. Very detailed info on this issue:

Many thanks NoVaDamer.

I respect the Fraser Institute. Makes sense to me and sounds fair for the Canadian population.
