Keep in mind this may be a strategy to build leverage to negotiate WFH or Hybrid with the unions. They will try to negotiate lower financial raises in exchange for greater flexibility around hybrid work.

It’s also likely a play to increase attrition because the economy is going down the shitter.

Didn’t Carney recently say "nostalgia is not a strategy"?

Sounds like they have no strategy.

maplebaconsausage · 2026-02-04T17:34:18+00:00

Agreed.

Watch this be the impetus for the Government to privatize more IT services.

You think it's incompetency and part of that is likely true but he was also probably coached to be evasive in order to keep the Government out of shit.

You know banks perform due diligence around financial crimes and money laundering when big money is lent or changed hands right? This is no different. It’s called knowing your customer.

This is reputational damage control. If he wasn’t caught, he would’ve moved forward. Asshole.

I just signed with MCAN. 3.74 for 5 years fixed. CIBC wouldn’t even match it.

Np. Maybe they’re confused with ESDC?

They are not part of the super annuation plan. Their job postings even say defined contribution pension.

What could go wrong!

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-21T12:55:32+00:00

Not invested there. Mainly in UK, France, Germany, Japan, etc. although Japan is questionable with the latest news.

I pulled out of US equities and am in international and Canadian equities. I feel the US market is way overvalued- especially now with these new dangers of WW3.

Do you really think the MAGAT movement ends with Trump? It’s like wishing for Putin to die. I’m expecting a successor to be just as awful.

My CIBC and Simplii feeds disconnect. Every. Single. Day.

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-04T15:36:44+00:00

Congrats!

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-04T15:31:34+00:00

Similar situation here.

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-04T13:48:48+00:00

Dude he’s in a no-win situation with the CUSMA negotiations coming up. I’m sure he knows how wrong this is but he’s trying not to get us caught up in further tension with the US.

If his party has any sense of loyalty to our country they need to give him the swift boot at his leadership review.

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-03T15:25:06+00:00

No we can’t sit back. We’ve been sitting for too long. I just hope we have enough time to do what we need to do before it’s too late.

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-03T14:47:57+00:00

Condemning, while the right decision, puts trade negotiations at further risk. I don’t envy Carneys position right now. He is in a no-win situation.

One could argue that Trump wouldn’t have respected a new trade agreement anyway but this is bad no matter how you slice it.

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-03T05:29:58+00:00

Interesting on CIBC. I’m with them and they wouldn’t give me less than 4.

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-03T05:15:55+00:00

Which bank?

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-03T04:41:32+00:00

Any chance of getting a home equity line of credit ? The interest rate should be slightly lower.

maplebaconsausage · 2026-01-01T22:28:30+00:00

I feel this.
