For most of us we often overlook having our eyes checked until we are having trouble seeing printed words, while our children might not recognize that they are having difficulty seeing.

Now Your Kids Have Gone Back to School….Let’s Talk RESP’s

With Mark Kenny Summer has come to an end, September has rolled around and your children are back in school! This is a good time to start thinking about your children’s future and the benefits of investing in an RESP.

A new Southport, a focused vision

A new Southport, a focused vision
