Not only is Canada Day an important national holiday, it was also on this day last year that I really started to get Canadian Finance Blog noticed. Last Canada Day I hosted the Money Hacks Carnival – Canada Day Edition. Not only did this bring quite a few bloggers that didn’t know about the site over to visit, it was also my first foray into social media sites like Tip’d, PF Buss, Digg, and StumbleUpon. I also finished up an interview with Larry MacDonald that would be published in the Globe and Mail a few days later, the first press this site received.
Today I want to share with you some of the great Canadian finance blogs that are out there. Some you will know of for sure, but hopefully you’ll find some that you haven’t visited before. I’ve separated them into four very distinct sets of six blogs, let’s have a look…
