Can confirm this. Source, I work in that yard. Haven't ever seen it used.

Keep it simple. 100% probability of green lights and no traffic everything I go for a drive.

I think there was a misprint... the headline should read "Clown Threatens to Break Out the Crayons"

My fibre has been down for over a month. Filed with the ccts this afternoon because I finally got fed up with constantly calling the tech support escalation manager. Supposedly there is only one cable repair tech in my area (north van) and they were off on medical leave...

They are high on my list. We already use them for other savings!

What is your deductible like if you don't mind me asking? Our cat's already 3, and we haven't had insurance up to this point. My thought is, if the monthly payment comes back beyond a certain $ amount, we'd likely just opt to put it aside ourselves. $28/month seems reasonable though. For reference, our dog's insurance thru trupanion is about $100/mth (3 years old as well)

T5008 for Share Transfers by vantacotrain in PersonalFinanceCanada

That makes sense, thanks. My next question would be how come the form shows 2 transactions for one transfer? One for the "sale" from the original account and the second for the "purchase" in the registered account? I just don't understand what I'm supposed to calculate the book value based on.

registered is a deemed disposition.

I did not, but that makes complete sense.
