    I understand. I left 26yrs ago so the wife could do a MA at U of T because its cost was about 1/5 the cost of attending Emerson or Northeastern back in Boston. We stayed here because of the ability to have the kids attend French Immersion at no extra cost, the safety, more relaxed lifestyle in...

    100% it does. There are also a lot more people in the US that have access to annual 'income' that is NOT related to a W2 income (a T4 in Canada). They have much more robust opportunities to shelter and structure their 'income' from paying taxes associated with a traditional wage income. This...

    Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

    I’m fairly certain that Harper can read between the lines and was more than likely given a pretty good recap of what was presented to us. Do you think that he would jeopardize his reputation by not having a good grasp/understanding of the situation before speaking out so strongly against the...

    For me, it’s telling that Harper has stood in front of the foreign press and has said loudly that he believes that Carney did the right thing to walk away from the deal that was offered. Harper didn’t pull any punches when he said, he wasn’t hedging his bets.

    There was weak demand yesterday for US Treasuries. I haven't checked on today's auction this morning but I suspect that it would be weak as well.
