Il Canada si doterà presto di un regime di trust di proprietà dei dipendenti (EOT)

Pubblichiamo una nota dell’Onorevole Tony Loffreda (nella foto sopra), senatore canadese indipendente, sul regime di trust di proprietà dei dipendenti (EOT).

Il Canada si doterà presto di un regime di trust di proprietà dei dipendenti (EOT).

“Downtown Core – Toronto”

TORONTO – I was born in the city of Manila, Philippines, and have been a city dweller ever since.  When I immigrated to Toronto in the early 70s, a relative offered me lodging in the suburbs, but I respectfully declined.  At the time, I was juggling two jobs.  Both were in the city.  And I was not about to add an exhausting commute to the picture.  What figured into my decision was the knowledge that living in a city, whether in the Philippines or any country for that matter, has more advantages than disadvantages.  Work opportunities are within reach.  So are churches, supermarkets and schools.  On a serious note, if there is a medical emergency, you can be transported to a downtown hospital within minutes.
