Re: Moving to Calgary with a Dog

Re: QROPS “Deregistration”

Re: QROPS “Deregistration”

I assume that you were over the age of 55 (57) when you made that transfer. I believe that, save exceptional circumstances, no funds could be transferred to a non-QROPS fund could occur prior to the...

Re: Early Elections?

You have just aptly demonstrated what I stated above.

The aim was to reduce carbon emissions wasn't it and, on that metric, it has been an abject failure. If it was intended to be a redistribution...

Re: Early Elections?

I always wonder how people know this. Did any of your friends tell you that they voted thinking they were voting in a federal election?

Re: Early Elections?

Why do you think that would change people's opinions? Didn't he support all of the policies that Trudeau implemented? What do you believe he is going to do any differently than Trudeau?

Re: Solar Panels In Canada/Alberta

We got a 13.02 kW system installed for just under $30,000. 24 panels, inverters, 100 metres of trenching from our field to our meter, all permits and all electrical too. Ground mount adds a fair...

Re: Job offer in Alberta requires CRC and Vulnerable sector level 2

I love it. Asking for advice and then stating the advice is wrong. To the OP - do what you want to do and live with the consequences of that choice - good or bad.

Re: Moving to Calgary from the UK

Re: The next election

You'll have to explain to me what my "...usual thing..." is in this context.

Re: The next election

OK. Does that make you feel better?

I still believe that Trudeau came out of this with more egg on his face than PP. I still believe that the Speaker's actions were worse than both of theirs. For...
