This morning, I met with premiers & the prime minister and once again, I raised the need to break down trade barriers within Canada.  The challenge posed by the tariff threat is also an opportunity to focus on growing our economy here at home.

OK my lovelies, it's that time again! I'm out in the mountains, #Klosters, doing the ski challenge for #SupportingWoundedVeterans Supporting Wounded Veterans. And I need *your* help: the more RTs and likes we get, the more points we win and the more money we raise!

If you’ve been told it’s all about “calories in, calories out,” let me offer a reality check: Protein, fats, & carbs can produce wildly different satiety signals, metabolic effects, & long-term outcomes. Oversimplifying this isn’t just wrong—it’s one of the reasons people yo-yo

Ottawa doesn’t just have to look abroad for inspirational urban places. Ottawa’s Booth Street Complex could be transformed into ↙️ Toronto’s distillery district or Vancouver’s Granville Island market ↘️ Ottawa can’t be frozen in time, it needs flexible land-use rules to adapt.

There's been lots of talk lately about the "lost decade" under the Liberal government. It revolves around this chart: Let's dig into it with a quick thread. 🧵

We bent the curve on GHG because of a strong plan to fight climate change. Poilievre has no plan—just a promise to scrap every measure in place. That will boost profits of big polluters & let them off the hook for their pollution. Under Poilievre, emissions will go up—not down.

Certain partisans have been citing Canada's performance on per capita GDP as evidence of a supposed 'lost decade' and economic mismanagement. In IRPP Policy Options, I deconstruct this arbitrary and misleading statistic, in two parts. #cdnecon #cdnpoli /2

"You live and work on treaty land; govern yourself accordingly." The Four Nations Chiefs of Maskwacis issue a joint statement to Alberta Premier Danielle Smith in response to Bill 54, and again, it's not pulling punches.

LET’S GO!!! “We know OC Transpo has been struggling a lot with reliability and we think this would help get people to work faster, get people home faster, help them get to school on time” CTV covered our sponsorship of the Mayfair marquee and our push for bus lanes on Bank

When you pull out that bag or wallet, you're reminded not of celebrities or designers, but the skill, patience, and time it took for someone to keep a craft alive. IMO, this is more satisfying. And as a matter of price-to-quality ratio, represents a better financial decision.

Build walkable communities. This new 140-home development we just completed is walkable to a full-service gas station and liquor store, which is just 3.7 miles away (see the red dot). Our lives don't have to revolve around cars.
