  2. omg a little sprinkle for a day or two and that's not a guarantee most years. Compared to areas around NY? Alright everybody, get ready for the most polite argument!

    Let's take it back on subject. Which Canadian broker are you using that uses FIFO

    I always assumed (incorrectly) that the further north from the equator the colder a city's winter weather would be. But I kept seeing that Vancouver/Seattle had fairly mild winters compared to even Texas and that didn't make since to me because Vancouver is a lot further from the equator. Maybe it's the relative amount of land mass (or lack thereof) north of Vancouver that keeps winters mild(er)?

    The ocean due west of Vancouver or the one north of Alaska? Google seems to agree with you.Apparently the westerly winds from the Pacific keep Vancouver bearable in the winter.

    That's what I understand. Japanese current keeps the temp mild.

    ONLY California, Arizona, Nevada and New Mexico have recorded hotter temperatures than Lytton BC's 121.3 F...and Nevada was probably Death valley, Vegas tops out at 117 F. :)

    When you say "We", are you located in the west end of the country?

    And oh yeah, you still haven't mentioned which broker you use that has FIFO accounting.

  10. We as in our province/country. I don't know if they use fifo method for the tax form but they track trades with it. I mean if I sell a 100 shares my book value is $7.50 I guess it would matter cuz I would pay less tax.
