imo another reminder to not compromise your values, because they wonāt appreciate it, and will throw you under the bus in an attempt to save their own skin
Iām not saying she was a good minister or not, the difficulty in finding material that isnāt exceptionally biased is beyond me these days. But to go out with that sort of letter says a lot.

I have paid zero attention to her previously but I LOVE this letter. It also has a nice tone of āfed up with Trudeau but not a facist? Let me runā

He was always going to turn on her. Hopefully she had full awareness of this.
She has her dignity, curious for the analysis to come of what else she gained in her time as a high profile Trudeau loyalist.

In quirky observations, I have always admired the outfits she puts together. She manages to look classy, put together, and donāt fuck with me all at once.

Agreed. Sheath dresses & daily gym workouts.

Anyone see the press conference the premiers held today? They met the last couple of days re: the American/Canadian situation. I was happy to see a united front.

I think the answer is no, but is anyone here currently using a fund like cash.to (Global X High Interest Savings ETF - Global X Investments Canada Inc.)
Iām thinking about shifting some of the rrsps to it for safety for 9-12 months before we need the money to help cash flow living expenses. Otherwise we need to take it as a taxable event this year, or do a registered transfer thing, which neither of us wants to make the effort for.

I have some units of CASH.TO. Any particular aspect you have questions about?

was there anything that surprised you in how it works? do you have it set up to automatically reinvest the distributions?

I manually reinvest the distributions (though 3-5% is high for what weāve gotten used to in the past two decades, it doesnāt really end up being that much on a monthly basis, I find!)
No real surprises, itās like a bond fund (monthly interest) except the unit price follows a predictable pattern (going slightly up throughout the month as interest is earned, then re-setting to $50.00 after the ex-dividend date).
I havenāt tried selling or pulling money out of my brokerage yet so no experience to share on those. But Iāve been happy enough to park my cash there (though should probably invest anything not short term, as interest rates keep falling).
