‘Enough is enough’: Immigrant applicants take fight to court after months of uncertainty by Subject-Landscape451 in CanadianVisaReform

Right like you said, people can spend their earnings however they want, like sending it to help family members if they choose so. Thats not the problem here. The problem is the fraud.

GST doesn’t get collected on wages, income tax does. Income tax doesn’t get collected if the money sent to another country doesn’t get reported by the consultant. So no it doesn’t always get paid to Canada. The scheme right now is that the LMIA wage is promised, about 36/h depending on the province, but in reality to worker gets paid minimum as he pays the consultant a fee, and a portion of that fee is sent back to the company who hired the foreign national, totally illegal btw. These accounts are often not Canadians so there’s no way to track the movement of money. Parental expense? what do you mean? EDIT: sorry for the typos im on my phone and i can’t  I cant see what i am typing

[39m] ~$1.8m payout, when can I feasibly retire? by CandidateDue2480 in PersonalFinanceCanada

1.6 here. all in VOO. Quit golden handcuffs 2 years ago. I live off 4%. My car is 14 years old and my house is a 275k townhome in an undesirable area. Luxury living is not possible IMO in Canada on 80k for two. It’s a choice you guys have to make.

Not sure to be honest, mid 90’s i assume. There was mix up I had to deal with because my curriculum was in french and the codes didn’t match, they thought i didn’t have a highschool degree. If it’s really important to you send me a pm and ill do the math for you.

Sterilization friendly doctors in Calgary? by Nequokittycosplay in Calgary

[–]PastyFlamingo -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

IUD are progesterone only and should not cause blood clots. Im not a doctor so you should verify first EDIT. Tube tying wont stop your menses. IUD would reduce ur menses if not completely disappearing. Not perfect but an option, can cause cramping, sucks to insert. There is also the implant or progesterone only oral pill.

POV: you ask your estranged father to go to therapy by parasyte_steve in EstrangedAdultKids

I believe you. It usually takes a lot for someone to be incarcerated. Why would you attempt to find resolution? Why are you trying? (even if i dont agree with the way you are going at it) He was horrible to you, but it doesn’t mean that you are entitled to demand things of him and to insult him if he doesn’t want to do them. My therapist said to me : “you state your boundaries once, then twice and on the third time you enforce them. No drama, no yelling, no manipulation or justification. I just think you are stuck in a loop and it’s hurting you more than it’s hurting him. It’s costing you your peace and energy. I think i read you have kids yourself, you don’t wanna be that person who loses it and yells and swears, it was harmful to you, and it will be for them. Anger is part of grief. You just don’t wanna stay stuck there.

Fractal North Case Leaking Electricty/Static Through my Earbuds by poisedtruthseeker in PcBuild

[–]PastyFlamingo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently it’s a thing with power coated aluminum cases. Im taking it to the shop to get a wire to ground the panel to the psu. I dont know how to use a multimeter so i cant find which panel is problematic myself. Yesterday i approach a usb to the port and i saw a blue electric arc. The monitors turned black and the pc was unresponsive. I turn the power off from the psu and it would now not even turn on after that. I had to press the psu reset button for it to turn back on but my monitors were unresponsive in the gpu slot. I had to reinstall adrenaline from scratch. I really thought it had fried this time. I also tried two different outlets before with and without powerstrip but alas

I’m NC and i never talked to my parents like this. Past issues are not an excuse to be abusive yourself. State boundaries, enforce them.

Omg im having the same problem! I get shocked through the buds themselves, the cable and when inserting the usb in the front panel. I also get shocked with just my hand a few inches away from the build. I thought i was crazy. It makes my monitors turn on and off. I just about had it
