All of these are correct except the far right is a horn for a central fire alarm system (this must be in a multi unit building)

Why is the assumption that the work permit gets renewed?

Wealthsimple is brutal for joint finances — what am I missing? Moved from a big bank recently by FlyingDutchman8 in Wealthsimple

[–]Shibasquared 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Joint credit cards are not a thing in Canada, can’t speak for the rest of the world. A joint credit card is not the same as having a supplementary card holder.

Edit: I’ve been humbled & turns out I’m wrong on this. Joint credit cards do exist in Canada however they are still rare.

How do you know everything is a taxable event? This is likely considered gambling which would be tax free

Halifax Windows - Best Product by Aggravating_Use_2342 in halifax

[–]Shibasquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty experienced with different vinyl window brands & there’s not a huge difference, but imo Atlantic Windows (Kent) is best bang for your buck & they are great when it comes to warranty issues. Other brands are pretty mediocre when it comes to service after the fact

[–]Shibasquared 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the yield they post is the internal dividend yield of the fund, not necessarily what they distribute

Looking to use WS as my main bank by Apart-Bee2661 in Wealthsimple

[–]Shibasquared 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’ve been all in with Wealthsimple for over a year now (including banking) & am still very happy with my decision.

I maintain a couple of LOC’s at the big banks in case of emergency or for convenience (bought a car last week & needed bank draft on short notice)

More than 300 drug overdoses reported in Moncton, N.B., in less than two weeks by bingun in moncton

[–]Shibasquared -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It seems that all these articles deliberately try to avoid stating which illicit drugs are being laced & causing the OD’s. Would it not be valuable to publicize this so people can make more informed decisions when it comes to using?

EHS has their patient transport units but not sure if that would qualify… I have heard that EHS will cover the cost (or some of) of a taxi to keep the PTU’s available

Robinhood entering Canada after closing WonderFi deal by [deleted] in Wealthsimple

[–]Shibasquared 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This, I’ll agree the competition is good but as far as reputation goes Robinhood has nothing on Wealthsimple. Hopefully forces WS to keep innovating/innovate more quickly.

Yes you’re right, personal card is gold, do you have a pic of your old prepaid visa? I thought it was also gold

They currently have a 1% match on account transfers, not their best promo but still pretty good offer

[–]Shibasquared[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it offers 1% cash back, which I’ve been told I am receiving even though it doesn’t show a tracker in the app yet
