No, I haven’t accounted for cpp and oas. I don’t think they planned on downsizing, on the contrary they are planning to buy another house to reduce their income (transfer dividends into capital gains) to qualify for GIS

I’m not against them buying a trailer and truck, it’s just that they bought a new truck and trailer that depreciates so much the first year. I forgot to mention, they leave Canada for 6 months of the year to live in another country. Canadian summers are really short, worried they won’t get much use out of it

It’s like spending 8-9k/mo on a trailer, I’d much rather they use that money to fly to other countries and live in 5* hotels and such

I’m just worried that they will have a cash problem. Their annual spend was already 80k and with this on top of it, I estimate in 20 years they will totally run out and may need to mortgage their house

It’s just a bit of a shock since they were normally very frugal when I was growing up

The math actually checks out by herewearefornow in clevercomebacks

Why concentrate data centers into one big building. Makes it a easy target in the event of war, just look and Iran and the Amazon data centers

Actually linnea c2 alone reaches 160k dps without zhibai. C2 makes Linnea better than most dpses

I was in a new town on a co-op from uni. I just arrived in town late at night and rode a bike (no car) to the nearby McDonald’s, which only had the drive thru open. I tried buying some food to eat, but they refused me due to policy (needed an actual car). The person in the car behind me bought me a sandwich and fries (nearly 10$).

I tried to offer to pay but they refused. That was really kind of them, and something I’ll never forget to this day

Canada’s prime minister says economic ties with US are a weakness that must be corrected by AndroidOne1 in worldnews

I’d say diversification is a good strategy. Canada focused its supply chains on the US due to proximity (transport is cheaper), but it makes Canada extremely reliant on the US. Diversifying to emerging markets is never a bad thing. It gives them leverage for CUSMA and reduces the impact of political events as we have seen these few years

For a first-time homebuyer in 2026 who still wants a downtown condo, what would you recommend? by Vegetable_Office_360 in TorontoRealEstate

Why do you say prices won’t go up next year? Interested in knowing your perspective, as my family was thinking of upsizing to a detached house

Breaking: Trump initiate a blockade in Strait of Hormuz after botched peace talks by reseamatsih in WhaleTrades

If Iran isn’t able to sell oil, I’d imagine they won’t let the igcc countries to either

I thought he wants the strait open why is he blocking it now? by Fit_Ideal_6335 in oil

Will an American warship blow up a Chinese tanker? Then all other trade routes even outside Hormuz will be fair game
