This is an interesting development, a federation of federated instances. Welcome!

As someone who has filed via NETFILE a number of years, you fill it out by hand as much as you write Word docs by hand, or less. Tax software collects the information, you push a button, it asks for your CRA credentials, and sends the properly formatted file it prepares. I imagine that, even if you were writing a program to use this, there are two parts. The first is the file format and the second is the communications requirements.

The hardest part was connecting to CRA directly. If you have that worked out, great. If you want to avoid that pain, link it to your bank account and your bank authenticates you, and then it's as complicated as logging into your online bank app/site.

There has been some movement on this. There is a government file by phone option, restricted based on income and return complexity. It is being expanded onto computers, and a somewhat larger user pool. I'd like to see it be universal provided you match the complexity criteria.

Well then, I guess it was perfect and stable prior to 2001, no need to investigate further!

This statement is only relevant if your knowledge of history started in 1980.

This only works if someone else can't make the hats for less than 10x the price China can. These aren't something special. Any har company in the world with red fabric and yellow thread can do it.

Red and gold! Not yellow, gold! See what you started?

Thanks for the info!

Who told Pierre? Because, as someone who doesn't have style and may have Carney's haircut, Pierre is no judge of style. I don't know if he's wearing contacts or just not used to the glare of life without glasses, but that squint isn't winning him votes.

Edit: I take it back, he always squinted a lot.

That guy was exposed to a lot more radiation than was safe or necessary to make that video. Running an unshielded radiation generator for fun is a special kind of insane. Not saying he's going to die of cancer, but if he gets cancer he's probably going to think of this video.

And get the camera out of the radiation beam!

I feel like you meant to reply to another comment. Were you referring to Moneymanager EX?

Yeah, not saying it isn't shitty of them to do that, but I can't say I'm surprised, either.
