The Canada Investment Summit – a two-day pitch fest at Toronto's luxurious Four Seasons Hotel – is a crucial step in Mark Carney’s plan to unlock a trillion dollars of new investment in Canada. Here’s how it came together. @stephenmaher.bsky.social: www.begiant.ca/stories/idea...

Keep hearing US analysts talking about tariffs who say #1 issue going into midterms is cost to families. Not corruption, racism, cruelty, murder, war, pedophilia cover up. The millions of people who can so easily overlook human atrocities but whine about the price of gas is staggering.

Canadians, we have a job to do. When companies are struggling, let’s do our best to help out. We all need to pull together and help each other out. 🇨🇦💪

Anyway, huge recommend of that book, and also just a furious rebellion against the slot machines in our pockets. They're meant to keep us pushing a button like a rat in a maze, and it's hard but not impossible to fight back. I've found Brick really helpful as a tool, but just find what works for you

The politicians forget about the wildfires as soon as fall hits, then look totally unprepared the next season when they hit again, with even more magnitude. I can assure you, you don’t forget when you have one of these in your back yard. This is a national emergency IMO.

@mark-carney.bsky.social Again, there's not enough federal leadership with firefighting. More resources, more support. If there's money for an Alberta pipeline, there's money for federal wildfire squads that hit the biggest fires coast to coast A free parks pass is no good if there are no parks

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

Here's the latest PM readout: "Prime Minster Carney said if we don’t produce a budget, we can't go over said budget" 🤔

What does it mean? Probably nothing. But feel free to extrapolate some greater truth from this difference.

David, I just heard a piece on CBC with the BC Spirits organization's chief. It is shameful the way this industry is treated compared to the BC Wine industry. Let's get their products in the stores and treat them the same as the other brewers. You've been sitting on these reports for 5 years!

I see a lot of this stuff and it’s so lazy. It’s a Canadian company that does get funding via ownership from a US hedge fund. Yes. But read our coverage and tell me if there’s an American slant to any of it. I’m in our news meetings every day, we are as local and as Canadian focussed as you can get.

You are up to date.
