now what i don't understand and one thing i i don't get is like the toronto blue jays figured
00:06
it out with santander right because the same thing with baseball players not everybody's
00:11
excited about the tax but they're making more money so it doesn't bother them as much right
00:14
santander's getting what like 35 mil or whatever you know what i mean a year type of deal is making
00:19
pretty big money um 30 mil whatever it is i think it's 35 30 whatever um so he's making pretty big
00:27
money but there's like a loophole in the canadian tax law about perform work bonuses the blue jays
00:34
figured it out they basically gave them like a huge chunk that was technically a bonus
00:38
and now they don't really owe him all that much money he didn't have to pay tax on it
00:43
so i don't understand why i don't understand why nhl teams haven't gotten as creative as the blue
00:49
jays did there i mean i don't i don't fall in for not figuring out before there's always different
00:54
loopholes and then they realize what they can do and what they can't do but the blue jays it was
00:59
pretty slick of them and i've seen agents on twitter talk about it in somewhat of a defense
01:07
of the the tax-free teams in which it's that you know yeah it's a little bit of an advantage but the
01:15
fact of the matter is if the canadian teams get creative there's ways around this and you can figure
01:21
it out but i don't know if they're not they don't want to they're not doing it or what whatnot but
01:26
it is what it is so
01:27
