The Smith Manoeuvre, as it was to become known, was simple and elegant. We attracted many new customers over the years by virtue of our support of the program.\u003cbr\u003e My question back then still stands today - \"Why isn't every Canadian making his mortgage tax deductible?\" Perhaps the publishing of \"The Smith Manoeuvre\" will make it happen.\u003cbr\u003e Larry Bell\u003cbr\u003e Vancouver, B.C.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eBooks\u003c\/li\u003e","brand":"Outspan Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":48186518732990,"sku":"0973295201-4","price":13.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/51O7RYJKi_L._SL500.jpg?v=1784741048","url":"https:\/\/shop.sustainablebooks.com\/products\/0973295201-the_smith_manoeuvre","provider":"Sustainable Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
