Welcome to Episode 48 of Retire Me.

The federal budget released its first budget in over 2 years this past Monday.  The budget was full of announcements and spending programs for a wide range of initiatives, individuals, and businesses.

On today's show, I focus on what I believe are the top 5 most meaningful announcements for people who are saving for retirement or are already retired.  They are:

1) Enhancement to OAS

2) Green Retrofit Loan Program

3) Expansion of the Disability Tax Credit criteria

4) Introduction of a Foreign Owner Vacancy Tax

5) What *wasn't* in the 2021 Budget

Detailed show notes and links to resources will be available on my blog this week at www.walhoutfinancial.ca/podcast.

Thanks for listening!
