For all those with opinions about the housing crisis in Canada and how to fix it, our affordability crisis roughly coincides with one in most Western countries.
Thousands marched through the center of Barcelona holding signs that read ‘Housing is a right, not a business,’ as a crippling housing crisis has been forcing the city’s residents to spend almost 50% of their wages on housing reut.rs/3Z4yCUZ
Its gone! Hurray for the good guys! @OttawaPolice They might occasionally be slower then we'd like, but still getting things done. 👍

A Harvard economist notes that the economics discipline is oligarchical, incestuous and essentially an intellectual market failure. Argues unironically that the solution is to give the Harvard economics department more public money 🙄 theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
This needs attention from public sector workers. There is often an assumption that money will incentivize activity, but in the era of the "everything bubble" many firms face the problem of too much money and not enough things to buy.
John A. Macdonald — a reputation trashed so hatefully, suddenly and thoroughly nationalpost.com/opinion/christ… "The case against Macdonald largely requires you not to care about the intricate details of the past and, if you do, to interpret them only as would a crown prosecutor..."
As we gathered today on the Parliament Hill to commemorate 1000 days of Russian full-scale invasion, I thanked people of Canada, the Government of Canada, members of @OurCommons @SenateCA for their steadfast support. Ukraine’s fight for freedom is more than just our fight.…
An important read The tldr; of the author is basically that the US will increasingly behave like a normal great power that pursues its own interests, rather then pursuing an idealistic foriegn policy that strives for some form of universal goodness. foreignaffairs.com/united-states/…
Im increasingly captivated by the concept of "public sector productivity". We all seem to agree that that productivity needs a big jolt for us to avoid economic doom. Seems strange to discount from this comversation the 40% or so of economic activity that is public sector.

A clear and compelling overview of Canada's productivity crisis. One thing striking me is how many of these issues can be tackled by motivated and entrepreneurial public servants. We can do this 👍👍 thoughtleadership.rbc.com/canadas-growth…
Some of the best tech I see these days has significant cross-over with the commercial video game stack. And my teachers said playing Counter-Strike was not a good use of time 😂

An honour and a pleasure to work with the brave men and women of @CanadianForces #RemembranceDay2024
"Canada urgently needs a foriegn policy reset" I find it remarkable that so few of these recommendations for a foriegn policy reset involve the traditional mandate of the department for foreign affairs. thehub.ca/2024/11/09/fen…
🧵 Seven hours in the @CanWarMuseum today, and we only managed to complete one floor. It. Was. That. Fantastic. Buckle in as I give you a tour of just some of my favourite parts. (You'll have to visit yourself for more!).
Wrapping up my morning at the @uOttawa Cyber Range with a bit of scenario exercise for responing to a cyber security attack. Good way to get folks exposure to these important issues!
Fun debate here at @fwd50 on the nature of digital government with a few of my favourite people Is digital government the same thing as regular government?
Everyone is encouraged to bring those ideas to our conference Nov 25th - figuring out what reforms we need to actually spend 2% of GDP on defence is going to need to be a bigger priority than it was yesterday. cgai.ca/what_defence_p…
If you're waking up today as a Canadian defence leader and heading into NDHQ wondering what all this means, let me offer a suggestion. It's time to make specific, actionable, & urgent proposals to the Government to reform procurement as well as to increase the size of the force.
Doomscrolling while waiting to learn the future of the world's largest democracy? Take a Carl Gustav break. You deserve it.
