Re-doing this calculation excluding Quebec (where there was broad-based labour market improvement in the late-2010s), the 4 ppt spike in recent grad unemployment since '23 remains, but conditions now look way worse vs. the 2010's.

If Danielle Smith actually cared about Albertans she’d be demanding massive support to transition the province’s economy away from reliance on O&G. But she doesn’t because she’s a lobbyist for the O&G corporations.

Electoral stunts have a long, proud history in Canada. In 1988, the Rhinoceros Party ran a candidate named John Turner in the riding of Liberal leader John Turner. It’d be great if partisans of all stripes both loosened up and grew up.

Danielle Smith is a publicly-paid lobbyist for oil & gas corporations. The separatist movement serves their interests not the interest of Albertans.

What even is Canadian content in 2025? Ownership? Voice? Location? Vibe? As the CRTC revisits the rules, this moment is about whether we shape and protect our own culture, or just rent space for it. We discussed streaming + sovereignty on CBC's Commotion youtube.com/watch?v=CiaO93…

At the Patriotic Millionaires Canada #G7 panel on tax policy, our senior economist DT Cochrane delivered a clear message: 👉 Decades of tax cuts failed workers and fuelled inequality. 👉 Fair taxation and an excess profits tax are essential to rebuild public services and restore balance.
