Should RRIF Minimum Withdrawals Be Abolished? Some argue yes, as the “discriminatory” requirement doesn’t fit the reality of today’s low yields and growing life expectancies

For Kelly McCauley, Edmonton West Conservative MP, it’s a question of principle, not only of circumstance. “It is unacceptable and discriminatory to seniors” shoots McCauley, who put forward a motion in 2017 to eliminate the mandatory minimum withdrawal limit on RRIFs. “The liberals voted it down,” he adds.
From 2016-2020, Canadian banks poured over $700 bn into fossil fuels, and shareholders are demanding change

It’s tough to make the case that we are working on a transition away from fossil fuels when Canadian banks keep funding oil and gas.
