New Statcan job figures are out today, and employment in construction fell by 21,000 jobs, in part due to the housing decline. Hopefully, our policymakers will take notice.

There's a Canadian progress movement now. Build Canada believes ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ could become โ€œthe most prosperous country in the world.โ€ Love the ambition!

Outstanding article in STOREYS by Daniel Foch this week. โ€œThe Real Canadian Housing Crisis Is In How We Buildโ€ Housing voices can be too dedicated to the morality rather than the practicality of housing solutions. storeys.com/canada-housingโ€ฆ

The employment rate (the percentage of population with a job) for 15-24 year olds is at the lowest level since 1998, excluding the pandemic. Creating an economy with no jobs and no housing for the next generation is going to end very, very badly. ipolitics.ca/2025/08/08/ecoโ€ฆ

โ€œTo visit a place like the museum at Revelstoke is to be reminded that Canada was not found, it was built. But also, that building was and continues to be a work in progress; it is a job that can never be complete. โ€œ open.substack.com/pub/buildcanadโ€ฆ

It never fails to amaze me how many on the left's ideal Canadian housing system is one where the top 10% own their own home, the bottom 20% live in social housing, and the 70% in the middle-class rent from one of a half-dozen corporations who'd own the rest of the housing stock.

Why are the only national projects weโ€™re talking about energy or natural resource related? Most Canadians work in the service sector. What about: โœ…Tourism and hospitality infrastructure that helps all parts of the country better compete for the tourism dollars โœ…Research and

Echoing Mikeโ€™s point, this attitude is often sincere but neglectful of the middle class. And there is an inherent assumption that the cost problem is due to โ€œprofitsโ€ when it really isnโ€™t a driving force of the problem.

Montreal is really cute tbh. Need to visit more often/spend more time here. Also, probably the best city for Toronto to learn from about how to do urbanism better.

Some wild facts about zoning is most cities have made it illegal for your kids to have a lemonade stand, for you to have a garage sale, for you to cut your nieghbours hair in your home, to hand them a cup of coffee, to babysit their kids, to start a new tech company in your

Iโ€™m not saying we shouldnโ€™t have far more competition in financial services in Canada, butโ€ฆ TD Bank is the 7th largest US bank by assets, and one of top 3 by branch footprint if you look at the US northeast. BMO is one of the largest banks in the Chicago/Midwest region.
