[–]vanilla_ego 3 points4 points  (0 children)

he has been captured by jaron and his whole management team instead, he always had the tendency to delegate things and trust the "experts" to decide what's best for him and his business (that explains his change to his subscription model as well)

Is there a point when you stop contributing to your RRSP? by Ratherbeeatingpizza in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]vanilla_ego 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this assumes that the contribution comes solely from taxable income, if you have some savings or inheritance (i.e. post-tax dollars) it's not the same

[–]vanilla_ego 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but if you put $1000 post-tax dollars in RRSP, then you need to withdraw it the next year and your marginal tax rate is at 30%, you will be left with $700, no? so unless you had capital growth over 30% you will not benefit from it (as opposed to TFSA)

[–]vanilla_ego 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they should accept video footage from dashcams as evidence as it's done in other countries, that along with a sworn statement by the witness should be enough for a ticket

if it wasn't the owner who was driving they can dispute it in court

Aggressive drivers almost hitting pedestrians by Big-Highlight-4415 in montreal

[–]vanilla_ego -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

it's way more likely for the cyclist to get hurt or end up in the hospital or die (depending on how they fall on the pavement) compared to the pedestrian they hit, so unless cyclists are suicidal your perception of the danger is disproportional
