    Canada needs an investment strategy for small business (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Someone once said that running a small business means learning 10 jobs you never wanted just to do the one you really love. That sums it up pretty well. The month Carolyn and I were married, I left my role as a partner in a local accounting firm to start my own business. Carolyn quit her job to join me. She did the invoicing – something that she wasn’t born to do. I had to explain that the dots next to the cents on the invoice should all line up. But that business evolved into another, then anot

    Tax incentives alone won’t be enough to right the Canadian economic ship (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Some have said that success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm. I like that definition. If one thing can be said about the Canada Investment Summit, which took place this week in Toronto, it’s that Canadian politicians, CEOs and asset managers showed no loss of enthusiasm about our country as a place to invest. As for the failure part – well, it’s time for our leaders to turn things around. During the summit, Prime Minister Mark Carney unveiled a new tax incentive –

    Why a tax treaty matters to the Maple Leafs – and Canadian sports (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

She’ll use words but mean something else entirely,” I said. “Tim, you’re asking me to explain women?” Cary replied. “I’m still trying to figure out why pizza is round, comes in a square box and is cut into triangles.” Our tax law can also be tough to understand.

    Five ways to create financial certainty in uncertain times (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    When I get up in the morning, I’m genuinely at a loss as to what I should wear. I’ve heard that behind every man who thinks he wears the pants in the family is a woman who tells him what pants to wear. That sounds right to me. Being uncertain about which pants I should wear with which shirt is a type of uncertainty I can deal with. Today, Canadians are dealing with a different type of confusion. I’m talking about the financial uncertainty that comes with the breakdown in Canada-U.S. trade talks.

    Seven smart ways to save for an education (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    How much would you pay for a course in the Science of Superheroes (a look at whether comic book powers, like Superman’s flight, could survive the laws of gravity and thermodynamics) at the University of California? Maybe the more important question is how you would pay for this? I’ve got some ideas. Today, let me suggest seven ways to save for a postsecondary education. 1. RESP. For most families, a registered education savings plan should be the first strategy used because it provides free mone
