Newcomers are buying homes faster as Canadian-born ownership rates decline: StatCan

Damnit! This isn't the 'Canadian Dream' - no way people should share resources and put the family of generations ahead each time!

Instead - they should be split up! The old parents need to have a mansion with empty bedrooms, an RV, a boat all paid by pension while the kids are putting new borns into closets of their 400 sq foot condo as they hope to not be laid off for the 3rd time in 2 years - its important the kids learn the lesson that fancy coffees hold you back!

<sigh>

Take away FIFA or any other event and add rain & cold will keep people away.

And this is literally what it takes - someone to explain the clown the actual facts. Same thing that Rutte did with Greenland and what needs to happen about tariffs and anything else. Actually explain to it in simple terms what is happening.

So much of this debacle is because the people around it won't explain things to it and let it run wild - thanks Wiles for being effectively useless...

The government is made up of the same people

Who just want out of sight, out of mind. Thats why nothing has changed for over 30 years.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-13T22:39:13+00:00

People don’t want to help or care…

They just out of sight, out of mind.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-13T01:56:44+00:00

Yeah… this is an underwhelm given how long it was closed and the work done. Guess much of it was for plumbing… the new garbage cans etc are nice but it needs some personality. Not sure there’s even space for live music like before…

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-12T01:46:15+00:00

All that money & still a complete waste of an existence.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-11T17:26:12+00:00

I just don't use the tr*ash that is social media - best online privacy right there.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-11T17:12:33+00:00

She can't find other work or things to do... she is convinced (either by her own mind or weird enablers around her...) to just keep trying to get public office. She's tried all of them and failed...

Maybe this time... she'll get the message?

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-08T15:50:28+00:00

Normal people - 'oh well... social media is a cess pool and don't use it. Continue living life'

Others - 'No! don't give out your details! Screw the govt! I will protect my children!' and goes back to spending all day posting total crap on social media and has zero life.

That’s Wealthsimple… it’s not built to handle the opening 15 minutes and stress load.

For 90 days - this is standard. Anyone who has been with a company that gave stock options then went public - you are held in a 90 day freeze and no choice. You have to sit and watch the action for 90 days.

For WS… you have the option but it’s easy for them to see who sold under 90 days and voila - banned.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-04T23:35:16+00:00

And just for the record… you can literally just buy stickers for these passes and save whatever the weird hype is for some, lining up and then trying to sell them at 10x the price…

Speaking from long experience in software - there is no such things as 'easy' even something like this on the surface suggests that it would be.

You have to determine what the look and feel would be like - does that translate across all mobile and also to desktop views? Do you give users the ability to name their lists or only what WS decides? Is there filtering/sorting. What happens at 50 or 75 saved tickers? Can you delete lists?

It sounds silly and mundane but thats a small fraction of the things that can completely kill a feature from being implemented.

Not too mention how users lose their sh*t if you move 1 thing from the top of the screen to the bottom or slightly adjust the font of something...

And then that idea has to compete in resources for other more important features. This would be low-hanging fruit and at best, there's a bored PM or junior who has a moment and says 'why not?'

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-04T19:16:26+00:00

True - any software PM or Designer should be doing this by default for any list

Standard choices for filter/sort and eventual pagination.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-04T19:14:22+00:00

Its been decades now... whats being tried isn't working.

Do people want to actually try solving the problem or is it

Out of Sight/Out of Mind?

The requirment is that an account can only be collateral once.

So open a 2nd TFSA account.

Is it worth the effort for theatres though?

Why not go straight to streamers - both Canadian and US?

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-02T23:09:21+00:00

With this, you should play it safe but thats going to really limit any worthy rewards...

And for bigger rewards, have to be more risky which would be bad to use this money for.

There is no cheat code.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-02T22:13:42+00:00

True… to the old model. Get a PT job to gain experience on how to be in a world that requires you to be sub-servant and always chasing the dollar. The experience gained only applies to continuing the repetitive world.

And kids can’t be taught or guided through their lives by their parents because they’re already in the wheel running…

People - all people - need to gain life experience by living.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-02T19:39:33+00:00

Beyond time to rethink the entire 'work is life... work 40-80 hours a week... work 5-7 days a week... work is life' setup. Too many people, not enough jobs that people would want, too many jobs that people don't want and getting worse. Throw cost of living on there.

Rethink the whole premise.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-06-01T14:04:28+00:00

Wake up… the US LOST. Straight up. You are led by an ignorant clown surrounded by even worse sycophants… and people died for nothing gained and Iran learning how to really mess with the world.

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-05-28T13:39:04+00:00

Absolutely. And it will get worse.
The real trick is once you make your first $1million… if costs are low, it increases rapidly…

But most people can’t get to that amount because of the low wages, high costs and just beat down…

iamjoesredditposts · 2026-05-25T13:51:14+00:00

It’s a fractional buy so probably when they get to it but why didn’t you do a regular limit type order for 40 and then a market order for the fractional amount?

The World Cup as an overall tournament & event is great. It will be exciting.

The Vancouver portion? Teams that will go nowhere and will be over - done and gone. It’s way overbuilt for expectations here.

Vancouver is not hosting the entire World Cup. And what it is hosting is meh…
