June is National Indigenous History Month, a time to honour the rich cultures, histories, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples across Canada.

Like the related Indigenous philosophy that encourages individuals consider the impact of their decisions seven generations into the future, our purpose-driven firm strives to create positive generational impact.

This month offers an opportunity to learn, reflect, and recognize the strength and resilience of Indigenous communities. Understanding the past and celebrating the present helps support a future built on respect and meaningful relationships.

The is more than a run - it’s about taking part in something that’s bigger than ourselves: Terry’s dream of a world without cancer.

On September 20, I’ll be joining my local Run to help fund innovative cancer research that’s changing lives across the country.

Edward Jones Canada and Gallup just released (2026) national research on financial fulfillment in Canada, here’s what the data shows:

• Only 12% of Canadians are financially fulfilled
• 47% feel financially conflicted, feeling both gratitude and stress about money at
the same time
• 41% are in consistent financial stress

What stands out most: in an analysis controlling for net worth, age, and other factors, professional advisors were the only source of financial guidance with a positive association with financial fulfillment. Guidance from other sources including friends, family, personal internet research, news, social media, and AI had no or negative relationships with fulfillment.

If you're not sure your money is working toward what matters to you, that's worth a conversation. Reach out, I'd love to help you.

Recent market volatility has been unsettling, but this moment can offer strategic opportunities.

Here are three opportunities to consider:

• Earn more income from bonds: Take advantage of today’s higher interest rates to potentially generate more income from fixed income investments.
• Use losses to reduce taxes: Apply investment losses to offset gains you’ve already realized, which can help lower your tax bill.
• Invest at better prices: Add to your long-term investment mix when markets offer more attractive entry points.

I work with clients to ensure their plans stay aligned with their long-term goals, emphasizing quality investments, diversification, and maintaining a long-term perspective.

Let's review your portfolio together and keep your financial strategy on track.

One of the most common questions about Old Age Security (OAS) is when to start taking it. The standard age is 65, but you can delay until age 70. Each choice affects how much you receive.

Starting at 65 means you begin receiving income earlier. But if you delay, your monthly payments increase by 0.6% for each month you wait, up to a maximum 36% increase at age 70.

So which option is right for you? It depends on several factors unique to your situation. Your current tax rate matters. If you're still working or have other significant income, delaying might make sense. Your total income matters too, because OAS is subject to a clawback if your income exceeds certain thresholds.

If you're approaching 65 and wondering when to start your OAS, reach out. I can help you evaluate your options based on your personal circumstances.
