The federal government says Canadians will get a “GST holiday” on groceries this holiday season — while those making under $150,000 annually will get also be getting a cheque. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made the announcement on Thursday, temporarily putting a break on the Goods and Services Tax on a slew of items, including certain groceries, kids’ clothing, footwear and diapers. In addition, Canadians who worked in 2023 and earned up to $150,000 will also receive a cheque worth $250 in April.
