L'état de compte précédent échu le 22 octobre 2017 m'indiquait que si vous ne versez que le montant minimum, nous estimons que votre solde sera remboursé dans 21 ans et 1 mois.
L'état ce compte échu le 22 novembre 2017 en remet et m'indique probablement un délai de grâce car c'est rendu à 23 ans et 2 mois.... pour moi c'est ce qu'on appelle les progrès sur l'espérance de vie.

Un sourire, dire je t'aime, un merci... ne nous hypothèqueront pas pour les 20 prochaines années, mais probablement nous réchaufferont le cœur pour ces prochaines années.

À vous de choisir comment seront les 20 prochaines années.

Quand même curieux qu'il puisse en obtenir, étant donné que le but premier est de les retirés de la circulation.

Sitting on a few $1,000 bills? Have a long lost $25 bill stuffed somewhere in your sock drawer? Dig them out because the government wants them back.

Tuesday’s budget calls for a process to remove the legal tender status of bank note denominations no longer issued by the Bank of Canada — that includes the $1,000, $500, $25, $2, and $1 bills.

More than $1 billion worth of the soon-to-be withdrawn currency was still in circulation at the end of 2017, according to the Bank of Canada. This included more than 740,000 of the $1,000 bills, which were last issued in May, 2000.

While you may no longer be able to spend them at your favourite store, the bills affected by the government’s plan can still be turned in to a financial institution, at least for the time being. After that, the Bank of Canada will continue to honour these bills and exchange them at their face value.

Only 40 of the $500 bills, worth a combined $20,000, are still in circulation, according to the central bank. The large-denomination legal tender, along with a $25 bill, were commemorative bills issued in 1935.

The $1 bill was withdrawn in June of 1989, and the $2 bill was pulled almost seven years later. They were replaced by coins nicknamed the loonie and the toonie.

Among the reasons the government now wants to take the withdrawn bills out of circulation is that newer bank notes have better security features that make them difficult to counterfeit.

Another, perhaps more practical reason was given by the Bank of Canada in a background document: "Some people do not recognize them, which means they likely would not be accepted in transactions."

En outre, en mai 2000, il précise qu'il restait toujours en circulation plus de 740 000 billets de 1000$ et 40 billets de 500$.

La question que je me pose, est-ce que c'est billets sont encore beaucoup utilisés dans le commerce? J'en doute fortement, et ce même pour les billets de 1000$.

Et est-ce que cela va faire comme les 1 cents, tout le monde va aller porter leur billet à la banque?
