@AaronHectorCFP Great info! What about the basic personal amount? Does it also increase?

Calls are mounting for Justin Trudeau to step down. Canada may be best served by a prime minister with a fresh mandate to face its challenges at home—and across its southern border https://t.co/uIHv8QnedT 👇

The resignation of a trusted ally tosses Justin Trudeau’s government into disarray. Has Canada’s prime minister lost his spark? https://t.co/cReeVmLv5b

The Canadian prime minister really does not look good here. Especially after having forced the second most prominent female cabinet minister out of office and party in a self-inflicted political-corruption scandal

@AaronHectorCFP Do you a link to where it states this on CRA's website? O wasn't aware of this provision

[Scott 🇨🇦 @Smorgasbord183]

They’d rather throw it out than to give anyone a deal.

What's the FHSA worth for the average person?

About 20 months of your time.

ICYMI: The carbon tax is dead. The same government that introduced the policy delivered the potentially fatal blow. My latest for @TheHubCanada 👇

Here is George Clooney response after Trump accused him of being a "Hollywood elite."

"Here’s the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladies’ shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so I’d have a tie to go on job interviews. I grew up understanding what it was like to not have health insurance for eight years.

So this idea that I’m somehow the “Hollywood elite” and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable.

People in Hollywood, for the most part, are people from the Midwest who moved to Hollywood to have a career. So this idea of “coastal elites” living in a bubble is ridiculous. Who lives in a bigger bubble?

He lives in a gold tower and has twelve people in his company. He doesn’t run a corporation of hundreds of thousands of people he employs and takes care of. He ran a company of twelve people!

When you direct a film you have seven different unions all wanting different things, you have to find consensus with all of them, and you have to get them moving in the same direction.

He’s never had to do any of that kind of stuff. I just look at it and I laugh when I see him say “Hollywood elite.” Hollywood elite? I don’t have a star on Hollywood Boulevard, Donald Trump has a star on Hollywood Boulevard! Fuck you!"

@AaronHectorCFP Thanks for great Strategy. Curious why someone wouldn't invest in https://t.co/uAVwOFrX47 which basically enables you invest with no tax drag until you choose to sell and incur capitals gains when you are in a lower tax bracket? Is this a easier way to achieve the same outcome?

@EconguyRosie @AmandaLang @takingstockca @BNNBloomberg You were warning of deflation before. Hard to follow your predictions when they don't come to be

Just paid my first Italian cellphone bill of 13 euros/mo for way more data than I get here in Canada at $120/mo. We deserve better!

NEWSFLASH: Rogers made $1,560,000,000 in profit last year.

Also NEWSFLASH: Many people couldn't call 911 yesterday. Healthcare services were disrupted. People's lives were put at risk.

It's clear the system is rigged. It's time to end monopolies in Canada.
