Doing some math... Should a commercial driver behind the wheel 10 hours every day have the same tolerance as a commuter driving 2 hours a day. No: The CD should be able to match his 5X exposure time to allow for 5X the transgressions. Yes: As pro, he should be trained to a higher standard.

It's also a great way to launder money if it's a principal residence. I was doing a repair in a very bland house being tarted up. I asked the electrician why the owner was spending so much money on a nothing special place. He replied that the owner owned a few strip joints and needed a way to...

It's a long term investment and you don't get your money back right away. Not far from that one is Neilson Drive where, over the last few decades, the bungalows and story and a half homes have been demolished and replaced with 3000 SF stone executive manors. A lot of houses in my area have...

Wouldn't it be nice if all those people that assisted in the fraud had to pay their way out of it. Also copy the $250K income guy's letter to the CRA so they can apply the appropriate taxes.

Multiple whammies Prices down, interest rates up and a huge number of condo corporations with inadequate reserve funds. I think it was Harris that made the new condo act face the reality of what happens when reserve funds are inadequate. I read it as a way of avoiding masses of condo owners...
