    I anticipated this when the markets closed on Friday. I moved out of equities, and now just have to wait for the sell orders to execute tomorrow morning. I might take small hit, but it will pale in comparison to staying in. RRSP is not self managed, but only about 20% is exposed to the markets...

    It's still masquerading as something else when it's actually voter suppression. 1984 doublespeak at it's best.

    It may not matter if the SAVE act gets passed, as millions of US women are at risk of losing their ability register to vote. Specifically, that the name on your birth document, and your legal ID must be the same. Hence a married woman who took her husband's name, could have a birth certificate...

    2025 Federal Election - 28 Apr 25

    While the factors influencing housing affordability are numerous and complex, an obvious factor is that were not building small and medium sized houses (900-1500sqft) in favour of multistory monstrosities (2200-3000sqft). Housing had always followed the population curve. Newlyweds, first timers...

    "UnitedHealthcare CEO is fatally shot in a ‘targeted attack’ outside a New York hotel"

    I think it's more the second shot if we count the events of 13 Jul 24.

    Imagine raising the cost of living by 30% overnight. I still marvel that the average American doesn't realize that this is quite literally a tax that they're going to fund from their pockets, not ours. The world is going to shift away from the US being the trade cornerstone and the result is not...

    I'm so sick of that sh*t. The liberals have been fear mongering the hidden agenda trope since Harper in 2006. It wasn't true then, and it's not true now.

    There are at least three, but probably more problems here: 1. the Supreme Court 2. the Constitution - it would require repeal of both the 12th and 22nd amendments 3. the requirement that constitutional amendments require at least 34 states to agree
