and they had to act before BCE converted into a trust. NO they did not. They could have said no non resource conversions without review... Simple.. They panicked like newbies... Now the only tax efficient way for regular folks is flow throughs ... and those are too sophisticated for the regular joe.. or dividends but hey they are lower and not tax efficient in an RRSP ..and lower than trust payouts were.. The money lost in the crash by many will never be made back.. it was life changing for many in a very bad way... I was already out early and was watching all the dough I left on the table so no sour grapes.. here. It was just a bad idea and a lie (broken election promise). Just like the Liberal lie on the GST. So there is the main reason I do not trust Harper.. He originally campaigned on integrity.. honesty.. but he;'s just another one of them... break a promise or lie in a heartbeat..
