I am sad to see Stephanie leave First Policy Response. She was crucial to showcasing newer voices in the applied public policy space. She made the work better -- and more accessible to a wider audience. Karim Bardeesy Sean Mullin, I and the whole @RULeadLab team are grateful.

Thanks Peggy Nash, Deena Ladd, Daniel Safayeni , Uber Canada 's Laura Miller and Sara Mojtehedzadeh for a fabulous event on Strengthening Workers' Rights in the New World of Work! Lots of food for thought! Thanks also to partners Toronto Star + @RyersonCLMR for helping make this happen!

I am gutted to hear about John Duffy. I've loved John for over 30 years. I could listen to him talk for hours and I usually understood most of it. He was kind, smart, hilarious and mischievous. A big hole in our community. My love to his family.

Jake has been to the groomer for spring.

My friend Dan Bilak asked me to share another video from Ukraine. I warn you this one is not easy to watch. These are Russian war crimes. 🇺🇦

Reposting this excellent analysis from Dan Skilleter As pointed out earlier, income stats are misleading without reference to wealth. But Dan adds another point. Excluding capital gains income, which is a big source of income for the wealthy, distorts the picture even more.

The new Forbes 2024 World Billionaire list just dropped and Canada has 67 families on the list. Our new Social Capital Partners report, 'Billionaire Blindspot' helps explain why - sadly - none of them will be captured by StatsCan in their wealth survey.

Wealth inequality in Canada is a bigger problem than we think, and our official data are misleading. Good piece from Dan Skilleter Canada is bad at studying wealth inequality and we explain why that matters thestar.com/opinion/contri… via @torontostar

Is Canada measuring wealth accurately? "My report says... the top 0.1% own approximately 12% of all Canadian wealth versus what Statistics Canada's official data says, which would say about 3 to 4%," Dan Skilleter (Social Capital Partners) tells Steve Paikin. At 8/11pm | Producer: Preeti Bhuyan

I haven't been on this site in years. Just logging in to say: authoritarian adversaries of Canada and democracy are flooding X with disinformation in the lead up to our election. Our enemies want Canadians to lose faith in our democratic institutions and in each other. Don't.
