On this week’s episode of More Than Money, Dave Popowich and Rob Gerrie unpack one of the biggest stories shaping retirement today: the geopolitical uncertainty dominating the headlines and what it could mean for your financial future.

Next, they look at how government cuts are pushing some Canadians into retirement earlier than expected and ask the important question: if retirement is forced on you, are you really ready?

Then, Dave and Rob turn to the Alberta budget and rising property taxes in Calgary. What is driving the increase, and what does it mean for retirees? They are joined by Trevor Tombe, economist at the University of Calgary, to break it down.

To close the show, with tax season fast approaching, Dave and Rob discuss the three most common tax issues retirees face and how to solve them.
