🔀 Variable vs. Adjustable: not the same thing!

👉 With a true variable, your payment stays the same but the interest split changes.
👉 With a true adjustable, your payment itself moves with the rate.
💡 Bonus: HELOCs are also directly impacted when rates shift.

As the Bank of Canada weighs its next decisions, knowing which product you have makes all the difference. 🎧

📣 Rate Hold!
The Bank of Canada left its key rate unchanged today — no surprises, no shifts.
