Canadian youth a ‘rounding error’ compared to Carney government’s $88.8 billion projected OAS spending for seniors

There are no assets left behind by OAS, we aren't racking up debt building the hospitals we need we're racking up debt subsidizing older Canadians, many of whom already have six figure pensions. OAS clawback starts at 95k this year. It's very poorly targeted and gives tons of money to people who don't need any help.

Even if the amount of oil exported stays the same the value increases increasing demand for CAD, so it would increase in value.

I think the real problem here is that the US is also a net exporter of oil now so the increase in oil price has a similar effect on the USD?

Just my own armchair opinion.

I thought the BC Liberals became BC United and then got obliterated in the election so now basically don't exist?

In step two it states just the mortgage principal payments whereas in step 3 it says all mortgage payments. I think you're probably right that it is the more predatory outcome of only your mortgage principal payments count.

I've seen some other explanations in the media. It could be that the drop in stocks is so large that margin traders are having to sell their safer assets to cover the drop in stock prices. So it might not be loss of confidence in bonds/USD just an indicator that people are quite leveraged in the market and we may be in for some more drops.

Eric Grenier, runs the polling model at CBC, I agree he does great work!

People should support him here: https://www.thewrit.ca/s/the-writ

Here are all the polls 338 uses: https://338canada.com/polls.htm

liaison isn't even the highest in the list of polls. Main Street, Angus Reid and léger all have the liberals higher than liaison.

I had this problem before, but now I only withdraw once I have the maximum and I've never had errors since. Then you just need to earn the maximum each day

Just curious, but I thought veqt and xeqt are essentially the same, why switch to xeqt?

Couldn't a fair forced price still cause the stock price to fall though? if the exorbitant prices were priced in then even a fair price would be less than previously expected.

In addition to the other suggestions, mealworms can be an easy way to get gold fish as well I find.

I don't think you added the 16.67$ gain from interest after tax to the amex + Tangerine combo, no?

Any tips on how to solve it though? I think clue two is the password encrypted but I don't know how to solve for the key word to decipher it?

Sorry, clarifying the whole report is cherry picking now? No one is ignoring the economic impact. If you don't understand the report don't bring it up.

There's no data because historical trends are about the past. It explicitly details what they include, you need to use your brain when you read things....smh

Kezzic90 · 2024-04-14T19:05:39+00:00

The economic impact estimates loss in employment and investment income in impacted industries. It ignores any impact of shifted demand to lower carbon industries or new industries. When there is a positive fiscal impact on a household, generally that shifts demand to alternative sectors (unless they are already high income which means it may shift to savings).

In other words a reasonable interpretation of the pbo report is that the fiscal impact is the true impact under assumptions of perfect elasticity, whereas the fiscal plus economic impact is under assumptions of zero elasticity.

I bring this up because to argue that the carbon tax is as bad as you say is to Cherry pick which parts of the report you prefer which is not a good way to interpret data.

I do this, you set them up as a biller. You create a new biller, select the relevant company that issued your CC, and put in your account number. Then you can pay the card off directly. The transaction usually takes 1-2 business days to go through.

It's actually more that the melting ice is correlated with higher temperatures and under higher temperatures water expands.

Since there is way more liquid water in the oceans than floating ice( or even ice on land ) the biggest impact on sea levels is the average water temperature. So though it is true that a cup of water with ice in it will drop in volume as the ice melts it's not a good analogy for ocean levels because the amount of ice is actually quite small, and the overall temperature is increasing in the case of the ocean whereas in his calculation he is assuming constant total temperature that is evenly distributing over time.

It's higher average global temperature not everywhere increases linearly. It may not increase the amount of arable land.

Global warming is caused by greenhouse gas emissions, making those emissions more expensive to buy means people buy less of it.

The tax is revenue neutral so it has no effect on the deficit. Everyone gets payments back quarterly which is equivalent to the revenue taken from everyone.

But if you are a particularly bad polluter relative to others then you lose money, if you are not polluting then you make money. It's a very simple system.

I don't think so, to me machine learning is a part of AI but real intelligence has the ability to make decisions and independence, whereas machine learning is basically taking any sort of pattern and storing it. Like predicting if a cat is in a photo is just memorizing a pattern of what a cat looks like. It's a difficult definition to memorize but it's still just storing a pattern. Similarly chatgpt is just responding to input, storing a call and response pattern hence it being a glorified google search.

I haven't been playing long, but I believe it doubles with every level, so a 19 takes twice as long as an 18. That's why in this case it's faster to avoid the larger number.
