I was expecting CRA MyAccount and Represent a Client to be missing T3 slips... but why are so many T4/T5/T4RIF etc. still not available online? Such a mess this year.

Employers are using the TFW program for occupations that they barely considered a few years ago. Case in point: administrative assistants. Companies were approved to hire > 3,500 of these positions last year, an increase of 3,090% from 2016.

The quotes here may seem hyperbolic. But truly, the traffic situation in Toronto is unbearable and getting worse by the year. I haven't taken a "normal" route on the King streetcar in years.
CityNews Toronto@CityNewsTO

Liberty Village residents say they feel trapped due to the "unbearable" traffic situation in the neighbourhood, pleading with authorities to take action. "It’s literally like we’re being held hostage in our own community" toronto.citynews.ca/2024/07/19/jus…

Here's an example: the Ontario Disability Support Program. Payments are now adjusted for inflation, but that follows a lengthy period of erosion. Adjusted for inflation, total annual incomes in 2022 were down 34% from a peak in the early 90s.

The interaction of public and private disability insurance policies is a critical issue- a proposed amendment to the Canada Disability Benefit bill to address this was not adopted by the government. It should be addressed in federal-provincial agreements.
Dave McCristall@davemccr

A key amendment to the Canada Disability benefit and any other type of disability benefit for example a WorkSafe disability benefit or Car Accident benefit should be that all Providers not be able to offset claw back payment from other providers. Especially private insurers.
