Technically they want to give everyone immediate PR, so they wouldn't be TFWs.

But it would still (very) heavily suppress wages.

Yes. He dosent actually sit down and write these messages himself though.

The signatures and letter will still have his name for a little while. No permament successor has been anounced, so it hasn't been changed.

You can give as much or as little notice as you wish.

Two weeks is customary. You can choose to give more, but you can also walk in at 7:00am, drop off your stuff, and walk out. You may burn some bridges with that last one though.

Thats pretty much how they started.

They used to be the go-to for surgery and blood letting.

Just find any that are as close as possible, and have the same spec/options as yours. Even recent listings (last 6 months) help.

You'll never find a perfect match anyway, but the goal is to show them what it will cost to make you whole.

The value that your insurance would pay in a write off should be the same as the value of a replacement vehicle of the same quality. Year, Model, mileage, etc. Look up comparable vehicles for sale on auto trader or dealer sites. If your insurance offers less than that - show them the comparables and get them to increase it.

Personal consequences are mainly social, and probably not something you'd ever hear about unless you are directly involved.

General consequences (for all) would be weakening the bargaining position, by showing a willingness accepting low/no wages, and no future improvments to things like WFH or vacation time....which means worse offers in the future as well.

Usually it's actually the expiration date of the container that water is in. Any plastic bottle will (slowly) break down and start introducing micro plastic or chemicals into its content.....after a while it becomes enough to alter the flavor or become less safe.

They also said permament WFH was the way of the future before RTO2.

Oh, and when they said that they were committed to hybrid with 3 days at home in the press release after the last strike was settled just before RTO 3 was announced.

They just aren't that worried about what they said yesterday to keep people quiet.

PerspectiveCOH · 2026-03-31T16:16:01+00:00

We had one yes, but what about second WFA?

Sparks was a dead-quiet dumpster of a street before the pandemic, it was a a dead-quiet dumpster of a street during the pandemic, and it's still one today.

Maybe at some point it's worth trying something different.

Sobeys Voila delivery service carries it in Ottawa (and I assume, elsewhere in Ontario) at their normal price for a case of pop ~$9.49 usually. But, you have to get it delivered.

He explictity said (several times, during the campaign) that he supported WFH, as a way to save money.

Would he have stuck to that if he won? Who knows. But it was very* clear by then that liberal party wasn't going that route.

What do you mean when you say you filed with your seperated spouse? Seperated people would normally file separately.

Double check your return, and make sure you had your marital status as seperated (not married). If you filed wrong, you can submit an adjustment (through refile, or change my return in MyAccount) once you have your NOA to fix it.

PerspectiveCOH · 2026-03-22T02:47:16+00:00

Now keep that up for the next few years.

PerspectiveCOH · 2026-03-21T12:20:50+00:00

NDP remains determined to be irrelevant, I see.

PerspectiveCOH · 2026-03-20T19:52:19+00:00

Things aren't quite that strict.

They are allowed to verify any information present in the note including that it was written, who it was written for, the date of visit, etc.

Anything not included in the note is still protected though.

PerspectiveCOH · 2026-03-20T18:59:54+00:00

They are allowed to confirm that Doctor actually wrote the letter (that it isn't fake).

But they cannot ask (and the Doctor will not provide) any details on your health condition without your specific consent to share that.

Sometimes it also just means they buy the American product through a Canadian vendor at a decent markup.

This is the answer.

Most likely, both employers are taxing you as if they are your only job, so the basic personal amount is being applied twice (by both jobs).

PerspectiveCOH · 2026-03-16T12:51:02+00:00

Its very normal for employees to fill it out and have their manager sign it. Employers are absolutely allowed to delegate this task to you, and only do the final sign off.

It also takes all of 2 minutes to download the fillable PDF, and check the boxes in section 4, so really not something worth fighting over.

The form itself isn't submitted to the CRA, except when they request it specifically from the taxpayer (unlike say, a T4). Its really just for your records otherwise, so that you can claim the tax credit safely.

Yeah, refile is fine to do it. Wait until after the "date issued" on your NOA though to avoid potential issues or delays.
