How Ottawa could cut personal income taxes – without creating a fiscal mess (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Canada’s tax system needs an overhaul. In this series, The Globe and Mail explores the bold policy choices that would attract capital, boost investment and raise Canadian living standards for generations to come. The introduction of Canada’s goods and services tax, or GST, in 1991 was a famously contentious affair. The new tax, which would be visible on Canadians’ retail and restaurant receipts, inspired such vitriolic opposition that Prime Minister Brian Mulroney had to resort to an obscure pro
I have a 10-year-old boy. My battle against online gambling has already begun (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A new Canadian study has found that emergency-room visits for gambling-related disorders have almost doubled since Ontario opened the door to private online gambling and sports betting platforms.

A gorgeous and affordable elbows-up destination (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The problem with elbows-up vacations is that they can be quite expensive. Flying within Canada is notoriously costly and food, accommodation and attractions can also add up. Camping is a lot cheaper, of course, but it is also quite hard to book at popular national and provincial parks, as I wrote about a few weeks ago. If you’ve been running up against the same issues, here’s a hack: Head north. My family and I just came back from a week around Lake Superior and, let me tell you, it was beautifu
