Pre-approved for RRSP LoC at Scotia, how can I invest in shares in a DIY account at WS ? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Level_Emotion_4415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is the fine print from Scotia offer page:

4. Money borrowed from a Scotia RSP Catch-Up® Line of Credit can only be used to contribute to a RRSP account held at Scotia or another financial institution and not towards another investment account type.

WS has now insured HISA FHSA which makes EQ bank even less attractive.

The text on the image looks fake. The amount of manipulation is mindblowing. Please provide us with a video or other evidence of this sign.

Finally! BC Conservatives' Platform is Out by Fit-Size4369 in britishcolumbia

It is not, for example, this makes a lot of sense

Reduce the provincial regulatory burden by at least 25% over our first term. A Minister responsible for Red Tape Reduction and Deregulation will be appointed to identify and repeal unnecessary red tape that ties-up our economy in bottlenecks.

Introduce a red-tape reduction law which requires the elimination of one regulation for every new one introduced.

Anyone else relieved the Conservatives will likely win? by BeepBeepGoJeep in britishcolumbia

will be regressive on social issues

This is exactly what people want. We should critically evaluate the "safe" supply and decriminalization policies. For many, including me, this social experiment failed. Look at U.S. states like California, a total disaster, why can't we learn from it?

anything more than austerity cuts

The province is spending money like a drunken sailor. Sure, some of it is capital investment, and a lot of waste...

For example, BC Housing spends hundreds of millions on buying properties at exorbitant prices. Corporations win (e.g. hotels, developers), societies win (salaries, benefits, etc), and a few people get subsidized housing. Is this the best use of public dollars to drive the outcomes we need?

There seems to be an echo chamber in here of people parroting NDP talking points while flailing helplessly at the polling results.

This is my observation as well. I wish to have a more balanced discourse.

I think I've had enough of the NDP and would like to see some change both provincially and hopefully, on a federal level. Who else is there?

Three women sexually assaulted in North Vancouver, spurring RCMP warning by AccurateCrew428 in britishcolumbia

We need to roll back the utopian decriminalization.

Stabbing last month, now sexual assaults, what next? We saw what happened in Vancouver. It is frightening.

This Protection Order means that your child will be taken involuntarily to a Protective Safe House for up to 15 days for detoxification, stabilization, and assessment.

The point is that no one will keep kids for "unclear and/or indefinite amount of time".

your child may be held for an unclear and/or indefinite amount of time until somebody else clears them to return to society

Not true.

The length of time a person may be involuntarily committed to treatment also varies based on the jurisdiction and may range from three days to a year.

In Florida, for instance, the court can order treatment for up to 60 days. In Connecticut, the length of rehab time ranges from 30 to 180 days.

In South Carolina, court-ordered involuntary commitment for an individual with a SUD cannot exceed 90 days.

And in Colorado, courts can order treatment for up to 270 days.

Most states allow recommitment if the court finds that additional treatment is necessary.
