@TheCADInvestor @amredman There is also the major risk - which I see time and again with clients. They pass away before withdrawing the money. It all becomes taxable all at once if no spouse for a rollover.

HUGE: The House of Commons just confirmed it.

An Alberta independence referendum does not need 60% or 66%.

The threshold is 50% + 1.

A clear majority is enough to change everything.

Poland has given parents ZERO income tax up to €33.000 if they have at least two children.

This to increase the birthrates.

Collapsing birthrates is a huge problem.

Raise your hand if you agree other countries should follow Poland 🖐️

Hey @ABDanielleSmith, there's no climate emergency. CO2 isn't a pollutant. Stop wasting money on these kinds of projects and be financially responsible.

BREAKING: A Presidential permit has been approved for a new bitumen pipeline that will initially deliver more than half a million barrels per day of Alberta oil to facilities and refineries throughout the United States. This project is a joint venture between two great Canadian and US companies South Bow and Bridger using existing assets.

After years of advocacy from our government, and following the signing of the Canada-Alberta Energy Agreement last year, the federal government has lifted their oil and gas production cap. This means Alberta producers will be able to produce more of the oil that the world needs. It’s incredible to see that work already paying off with announcements like this.

The US is our most important trading partner and we will continue to deliver energy to help secure North American energy dominance.

@PhilbyB @staunovo @alexbhturnbull How do those internal flames in your profile picture keep burning? That’s right - oil/gas.

Alberta setting a new 120-day approval timeline for major projects.

It aims to help double oil and gas production by 2035 and increase market access.

New analysis by https://t.co/0KaWOKgczo and @atbfinancial Economics reveals the significant benefit to the Canadian economy of additional oil pipelines:
• an incremental 1.5 million barrels/day of oil export capacity could contribute an average of $31.4 billion to national real GDP annually between 2027 and 2035
• pipeline construction and accompanying oil production activities would support an average of 112,000 new jobs

BREAKING: Former CBC host Travis Dhanraj reveals that the CBC management BANNED him from requesting an interview with Pierre Poilievre and threatened to have him pulled off the air for interviewing Melissa Lantsman.

The anti-Conservative bias coming from the CBC is outrageous..

BREAKING: Canadian Natural Resources, one of the largest independent crude oil and natural gas producers in the world, will PAUSE their $8.25 billion oil sands mine project because of "regulatory uncertainty".

According to them, the federal industrial carbon tax has created "uncertainty and economic burden for a long-term growth investment."

The truth is, anti-development Liberal laws are still in place and continue to push investors and builders to other countries with clearer rules and more predictability. Conservatives will repeal anti-development Liberal laws like the federal industrial carbon tax to make Canada self-reliance, sovereignty, united, and affordable.
