Nursing is also one of the few professions where they still have to pay for their own internship (going further into debt).

A doctor in training is paid while a nurse in training is not only working for free, but paying a fee to be there. Not sure if this is consistent in every province though.

i hope this looks nothing like the sr&ed tax credit

nominal capital gains that are purely due to inflation seem like dubious tax targets (you didn’t earn anything, the canadian dollar was simply worth less)… pairing this with the end of the capital gains exemption for principal residences could be interesting

honestly, real capital gains should be taxed a lot higher but inflation wrecks the math (i’d wager the 50% exemption was an attempt to account for this)

It would be fun to throw something random in there like term limits. I’d appreciate barring anyone who has been an MP for 20 years from running again.

His journey will probably start by driving past the old rail station in downtown Ottawa (a couple blocks from parliament) out to the boonies.

Their math seems to assume that benefits only apply to people still in Alberta. If a lifelong Albertan moves out of province at retirement, they definitely deserve benefits from the Alberta pool and cheques would need to go out across the whole country. So their pension obligations are probably higher than estimated.

Due to donation limits ($1700 / year), it’s hard to amount to much unless you sprinkle it across all members of the household and donate to the party and EDA too.

This article has a unique style to it. I wonder if these bots are only decent at summarizing highly formulaic content (articles that are half written by bots).

That’s a boundary error – they’re all next to BC

me too, but do tell about this e-sim app 😮
