Re: Moncton or Fredericton?

Fredericton is definitely prettier, nicer and more pleasant overall than Moncton. I think it's actually one of the prettiest cities in Canada. I lived in Fredericton from 2005-2009 and have been...

Re: Using your RRSPs for a first home mortgage

I understand your point, but I'm guessing you didn't use your RRSPs to put down the 5%. I don't have a whole lot in savings outside of my RRSPs.

Re: Using your RRSPs for a first home mortgage

I'm not sure I understand this post.

What is Genworth? 1.75% for what? Do you mean 1.75% of the loan amount as mortgage insurance?
