Thanks. Just what I needed. Another reminder that I picked the wrong generation to be a Canadian immigrant to the US (from AB with the lowest tax burden in NA, to NY with the highest). Property taxes on my 1,800 sq. ft home in Upstate NY are significantly higher than my Dad's 4,000 sq. ft home in Calgary. And I pay through the freek'n teeth for employer-provided healthcare. It's a good time to be Canadian.
