We Built a Budget Planner Spreadsheet for Canadian Households — Here's What's Inside

  If you've been reading our RRSP/TFSA/FHSA and household budgeting pieces, you already know the line we keep coming back to: a plan is only as good as your ability to actually track it.

Solar Storm to Light Up Canada’s September Skies with Aurora Spectacle


Canadians are in for a celestial treat as a recent solar eruption sends a wave of charged particles toward Earth, setting the stage for one of the most vibrant northern lights displays since spring. The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has issued a geomagnetic storm watch, predicting moderate Level 2–3 activity for September 1–2.

The aurora borealis could be visible across much of Canada—from the Prairies to Ontario and Quebec—and even dip into parts of the northern United States. September’s longer nights and earlier sunsets create ideal viewing conditions, giving skywatchers a better chance to catch the shimmering green, pink, and purple curtains dancing overhead.

Experts recommend heading to a dark, open location far from city lights, allowing your eyes to adjust for at least 20 minutes. A tripod can help capture the display in all its glory. While this event may not rival last year’s record-breaking auroras, it’s expected to be the best opportunity in months for Canadians to witness nature’s most dazzling light show.
