Most Canadians can differentiate between a debit card and a credit card. But while these two commonly used payment tools might look similar in appearance, each has its distinct advantages and drawbacks. In this article, I explain the differences between the two, so you can know when it’s better to use one over the other.
What Is a Debit Card?
A debit card is a convenient and secure payment card that allows you to access your bank account, make purchases, and withdraw cash seamlessly. When you use a debit card, the funds are drawn directly from your checking account. For this reason, your debit card spending limit will never exceed what’s available in your bank account.
Benefits of Using a Debit Card
Debit cards are widely accepted, making them an incredibly convenient tool for daily use. Most debit cards also have security features that protect your funds and personal information, making it a safer way to transact than carrying around large sums of cash.

Thinking about asking a senior-age parent to move in with you? If this involves renovating your home to create a secondary unit for them, you may qualify for a new federal tax credit: the Multigenerational Home Renovation Tax Credit (MHRTC).

Multigenerational households—those composed of three or more generations under one roof—are Canada’s fastest-growing type of household. From 2001 to 2021, they increased by 50%, according to numbers from the 2021 census. Factors contributing to this remarkable spike include bloated housing costs, a tight real estate market, rising interest rates and an aging population. For Canadians with aging parents or other relatives who require care, establishing a multigenerational home can make a lot of sense, practically and financially. However, there are substantial costs associated with creating a secondary unit, and that’s where the new Multigenerational Home Renovation Tax Credit (MHRTC) comes in.
