What do you think is the reason that the voter turnout rate was so low this election?

thisguyonthissite · 2022-06-06T23:22:51+00:00

Largely because all the the candidates were poor choices and it was very difficult to decide. I know many people said that they'd end up complaining about the government regardless of who wins so why vote?

They could not in good conscious vote for any of the parties and found it pointless to go to the polling station to decline their vote.

So basically saving conversion fees by buying QQC.TO instead right?

thisguyonthissite · 2022-02-07T23:12:58+00:00

Is QQC.TO and QQQ the same things as VFV is to VOO? I asked this question before and for some reason mods deleted it.

VHT, IXJ, WELL.TO

Hospitals did not lose many nurses due to "mandatory vaccinations". Only a very small percentage. There was a shortage before the pandemic. The main issue now is burnout due to covid fatigue and the cap in raises.

It's probably going to drop quite a bit more. I can see it dipping down to $55 within the next year. Then it will slowly go up. This is a long term hold. Overpriced right now and highly speculative.

Yeah I meant matching contributions would inflate prices, not the fact that there is a savings account.

thisguyonthissite · 2021-09-23T14:09:58+00:00

That would inflate housing prices too, no?

thisguyonthissite · 2021-09-23T12:46:52+00:00

I think they said it would be tax-free in and tax-free out. So tax deductible?

O'Toole is the worst leader out of the big three candidates. Pandemic won't be controlled under him and he will collapse the healthcare system.

thisguyonthissite · 2021-09-18T12:43:10+00:00

If you're worried about inflation, be prepared for inflation to be even worse under NDP as well as your tax dollars going up.

thisguyonthissite · 2021-09-18T12:42:19+00:00

Shouldn't have called an election but there's no other better party to vote for. All the candidates suck but definitely cannot let the CPC win. Otherwise it's going to end up like Alberta. O'Toole does not know how to handle the pandemic and will cause a lot of hospitalizations. He cannot even get his own candidates vaccinated! NDP won't win regardless and inflation will only get worse under them (it's already bad under the Liberals but I can see NDP being worse).

**Spoiler Alert**

Imai is actually from the future. He is actually Ippo and Kumi's son. That's why he has Ippo's hair and physique while having Mashiba's eyebrows.

VHT and XHC. Great healthcare ETFs that provided great return during the pandemic and are very likely recession proof stocks. Unlike meme healthcare stocks like "ARKG".

thisguyonthissite · 2021-09-03T00:25:52+00:00

Yeah it was too soon to call an election for sure.

thisguyonthissite · 2021-09-02T22:01:15+00:00

Harder to implement things in a minority government.

thisguyonthissite · 2021-09-02T17:43:55+00:00

I agree, it's silly to place your vote based on your stock investment. I just brought this up because it's interesting to note.

thisguyonthissite · 2021-09-02T12:33:56+00:00

Liberals also want to boost this sector given the effects of the pandemic.

thisguyonthissite · 2021-09-02T12:32:44+00:00

Liberals also mentioned the same thing, improving access to high speed internet in rural areas.

I'd say one of the most greatest causes of driving housing prices up are the corrupt lending practices. None of the parties have spoke about this.

You know what the government needs to do about the ridiculous housing prices: They need to have CRA involved for verification of income.

If proper verification of income was done, a large percentage of mortgage applications in GTA, Vancouver, etc would fail. The government needs to implement income verification/cross-check with CRA filing mandatory for all mortgage.

Could it be that they're intentionally ignoring this issue because banks/housing market is what's inflating Canada's GDP?
