P.S. The best way to prevent tax avoidance/evasion is to lower tax rates.
Yes, lower it to 0% so there's nothing to evade. You are brilliant. We'll just fund our public services with ass wipes. Teachers and police will all be volunteers work for nothing.

Canada should follow the successful Singapore tax model.

"Singapore follows a progressive resident tax rate starting at 0% and ending at 22% above S$320,000. There is no capital gain or inheritance tax. Individuals are taxed only on the income earned in Singapore. The income earned by individuals while working overseas is not subject to taxation barring a few exceptions."

Meanwhile the lefties in Canada think that raising tax rates encourages more investments and generate higher tax revenue. Wrong!

George Knudson. In one of his last interviews, he was really pissed that cigarettes were the cause of his premature dying.
Not sure what that has to do with being the first Canadian to win a major in their sport and each having only that one win.

Does Bianca smoke cigarettes? Is Knudson also pissed that Brooke passed his career win record? Can Mike weir's winery be more successful than 99's?

I'm just trying to tie it all together.

Someone mentioned the Canadian golfer Mike Weir so I mentioned the Canadian golfer George Knudson. The common thread is that both are Canadians, both are golfers and both have 8 PGA victories.

"George Alfred Christian Knudson, CM (June 28, 1937 – January 24, 1989) was a Canadian professional golfer, who along with Mike Weir holds the record for the Canadian with the most wins on the PGA Tour, with eight career victories."

@gameboy. I'm not passive aggresive like many people in this country. I'd gladly tell her to her face my opinion. If it ever came to that. I've done it before at work or other situations and people are usually shocked. They expect someone that is afraid to speak up and that's not me. Thank God my balls have dropped unlike many men in this country that are either castrated by this system.

As per your question if she wins one more I'll give her her due that it wasn't the stars aligning for her. Let's see time will tell who's right or wrong.

I looked up she's made over $6M dollars gross so eith the tax system in this country taking most of that for themselves (let's face it social services in this province at least are bad at best. Go to a doctor's office just to see) she can never win another grand slam again and not have to worry about money if she is smart about her money. Good for her. She invested in herself and it paid off.
Bianca won't pay it in taxes she is incorporated into Bianca INC, and the money will be held in her corporation to pay for her substantial operating expense as a professional athlete. Her team, transport, accomodation etc etc. of course endorsements will also pour in. The girl is a star.

Singapore is an island of 721 sq km with a tropical climate... there is no comparison whatsoever.

You are so out to lunch. We know who George Knudson was, however the discussion got into talking about how Bianca has only one major so far, so I compared that to Mike Weir and his one major and both of them were the first to win a major in their respective sport. In no way does George Knudson enter into any discussion here. Even your attempt at a rationalization is nonsensical. If I mentioned Mike Weir you could have started talking about Mike Tyson or Michael Harris or Bob Weir. They have as much to do with this discussion as George Knudson.

Meanwhile the lefties in Canada think that raising tax rates encourages more investments and generate higher tax revenue. Wrong!
Between your ridiculously stupid posts, your lack of reading comprehension and your incessant need to bring in politics into each and every discussion on any topic, it is impossible to take anything that you post seriously.

Sure, feel free to talk about Mike Weir all you want but Knudson was famous before Weir.

Some members were talking about how some Canadian tennis players are officially resident outside Canada which I think is because places like Monaco have a no or lower tax rates. It is politicians who set tax rates.

But the point is that any talk of Knudson has absolutely zero to do with Bianca or Canadians winning first majors. How far out to lunch can you be?

Since you mention George Knudson, let's talk about George, The Animal, Steele or George of the Jungle.. They have the same relevance to Canadians winning majors as Knudson.

It makes a level playing field, but Serena still had an advantage-she had the emotional support form the crowd, Andreescu had to be mentally tough to fight that hostile environment.
Level?

Serena is nearly 40 years old, and has been playing for a year since giving birth to boot. You call that level?

Notice what has been happening to Federer? Quite a few are surprised Serena is still even making finals. However, that is when she crumbles... since coming back to tennis. And the advantage you speak of is a hindrance to Serena. She has the extreme pressure of getting number 24 with age catching up on her. In fact, it already has!

Did most of you guys start watching tennis yesterday?

Tennis has been a young person's game since way back when. Most of a tennis player's best work is done from age 16 to 25. I'm sure you'll find more slam winners in their teens than post 35!!!

As but one example, Martina Hingis won all of her 5 slams by the time she was Bianca's age.

Steffi Graf? When she was 19 she had 5 titles as well, I believe.

So what is your point in light of the fact that Serena had her ass handed to her (and I believe it was all of it, which is a lot)? Was she gypped? Did she deserve to win? Does a loss in the final strengthen her legacy? Does she deserve more adulation than the winner? Should she not play if the field is not level?

I don't think anybody dissed Serena's career or effort. What is it you are trying to defend here? Unassuming's point is completely level. The crowd was cheering for Bianca to fold under the pressure of the player with the 2nd most majors in history while in her very 1st major final.

Serena is far from her prime but so is Andreescu.
The prime years for a tennis player (looking at female ones) have been ages 18 'til about 29 unless things have changed. The great ones manage to eek out a title win or two between ages 30 and 34.

Bianca is in her prime years. Serena's ended 8 or 9 years ago.

I think that it is extremely rare for a tennis player to be "in their prime" at 18. It is irrational to think that an 18 will not improve with physical maturity and increased experience. IMO, "prime" for the vast majority of tennis players would not start before age 22. There are always exceptions.

Time doesn't wait for anyone, including Serena who has a long and distinguished career. Her accomplishments are significant and cannot be ignored despite some who do like her and are obviously happy that she lost.

prime years sure but she's not in her prime. She was 150 plus in ranking last year. This is her first major and she won. You think she's in her prime? She is only beginning her career. More a rookie than in her prime.

Serena man-handled all her opponents before getting to the finals. The only difference was she wasn't playing Bianca in those matches.

There's a pretty long list of women tennis players winning grand slams in their teens (as young as 16): Hingis, Seles, Austin, Sharapova, etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_...champions_in_Open_Era_with_age_of_first_title

It appears that the top women players start winning in their teens. It's certainly not a rarity. It seems closer to being the rule.

I don't think so, Serena won 6 Slams after 2012. She wanted a child, more power to her. Her best chance of winning her 24th Major is at the French Open. Even with her compromised lateral movement (due to late child birth) she still has enough weapons to take Roland Garros.

Bianca the rest of the field will be gunning for her. Niomi Osaka won two consecutive hard court Slams, her form has dipped since. Garbine Muguruza won the French in 16 then Wimbledon in 17. She looked like a dominator - then she lost her mind. Losing to Bianca at Indian Wells 6 - 1, 6 - 0. Do they make bagels in Catalunya?

I'm going to make the call - Shapo will win a Slam in 2020. John McEnroe said he's the player that most resembles him in his heyday.
