Their well-being is also untethered from Canada’s anemic wage growth. People 55 and older make up less than one-third of the population but, as of 2023, they owned 49 per cent of the country’s real estate by value, 62 per cent of bank deposits, 72 per cent of mutual funds and other investments and 75 per cent of stocks. The value of all those assets has soared.&#34;<br/><br/>&gt; &#34;Many do not feel rich. They consider themselves middle class, because they own the things middle-class Canadians once took for granted: a home, a car, perhaps a cottage or a boat. But those once-ordinary markers of stability are now available only to a privileged minority.&#34; <br/><br/><a href="https://macleans.ca/longforms/the-great-generational-rip-off">https://macleans.ca/longforms/the-great-generational-rip-off</a> <br/>#Canada #canpoli #onpoli 2026-09-26T12:22:57Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsytgkqg0yt3vq2994s2pzzl9vgpst72xl4e9gu0kjnk6nqznpu2dqzypan2jn2p5xf2j0dmzs7zvthlafc484p46a4kg86267u9p0q3nd86q44q6f In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsxjad7lyqpy0enkq4ntvreur56dv4wqw00tsswzh7t65qkka6clmqpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerfw36x7tnsw43q5yx4z5'>nevent1q…x4z5</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyd968gmewwp6kyqpqdgsrtum45we57dd9zs6r9967fxxheqvruy86c2z0gy0ftv4ll6jqsx7q7j" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyd968gmewwp6kyqpqdgsrtum45we57dd9zs6r9967fxxheqvruy86c2z0gy0ftv4ll6jqsx7q7j</span> (<span class="italic">nprofile…7q7j</span>)</a></span> from Quebec: <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/wendake-stop-signs-in-wendat-language-9.7248962">https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/wendake-stop-signs-in-wendat-language-9.7248962</a> 2026-06-28T00:57:18Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqjhwmuuuudw6pajz67em9gwv59vq8cm03td4g2vhfgtwtcaylsqgzypan2jn2p5xf2j0dmzs7zvthlafc484p46a4kg86267u9p0q3nd86aaue0m Transgender American students in Montreal denied care based on fear of US laws. <br/><br/>Elbows up, eh?<br/><br/><a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/mcgill-clinic-trans-rights-9.7194954">https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/mcgill-clinic-trans-rights-9.7194954</a><br/><br/>#canada #TransRights 2026-05-12T13:20:13Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqswqnurfuxzavkv5vmrdz05lhd43x4722x8ddazmqjy8kvkcvymtqczypan2jn2p5xf2j0dmzs7zvthlafc484p46a4kg86267u9p0q3nd86ed44cu Caught myself attempting to gentle parent a boiling pot of water last night as I reached to turn down the burner. <br/><br/>“Yes I see you are very excited but let’s turn down the energy level just a bit”<br/><br/>#parenting 2026-03-23T20:00:36Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsylq57606rjkegw4gpxf95r0jd6gdxjkt50dkpaggtf3ceypcsq3qzypan2jn2p5xf2j0dmzs7zvthlafc484p46a4kg86267u9p0q3nd860zqaeh Saw a headline about “why ebikes are quietly replacing short car trips” but that simply can’t be true: the ebike people and those who are joining them (us) day by day can’t shut up about it<br/><br/>have you heard the good news??
