I highly recommend a physiotherapist if you haven't already.
I had an issue years ago where my doctor couldn't figure out my knee pain/clicking but physio got it. He taught me how to correct for my extremely tight IT band that was pulling everything out of alignment and causing damage. Fortunately that meant a foam roller and stretching rather than surgery.
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)
I'm disappointed that even a credit union wouldn't lend to them. Lenders can have mountains of collateral and still chicken out -- it's bizarre they won't take any actual risk.

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.
hard to follow the article with only a short blurb... it starts by saying he was happy to pay for the privilege but is now complaining of it costing too much?
I think a one month extension costs $470 NZD, but I can't tell what longer term residency permits cost (it's probably a combination of multiple fees)

Courtenay council passed two readings with one councillor against the motion

His journey will probably start by driving past the old rail station in downtown Ottawa (a couple blocks from parliament) out to the boonies.
The bylaws mentioned in the article seem to affect everything outside Courtenay, Cumberland, and Comox in the CVRD. Not sure if water costs will be rising for those (urban) areas as well, or if they've already been handled by previous budgets.
Some areas only pay $99 a year, so an increase sounds reasonable.

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).

me too, but do tell about this e-sim app 😮
Sadly it doesn't work well on iPhone (with certain apps, anyways). So I don't trust do not disturb/sleep focus mode when on-call.
Thanks for keeping the discussion civil and respectful. Have a great day!
