Thank you to our partners @MaxBellSchool and @SAISHopkins, as well as everyone who joined the launch of the Second Century Commission.

During the panel “Canada–U.S. Relations in an Age of Economic Security,” @HonStephaneDion, @VassB, @martilane, Ben Chalmers, and @BAMcCown explored how both countries can navigate growing economic and geopolitical challenges together, as well as the bilateral frameworks needed to strengthen resilience, cooperation, and shared prosperity.

A new phase of Canada–U.S. collaboration is underway.

We are pleased to share a new initiative as Canada, and the United States mark 100 years of formal diplomatic relations. The Commission for the Second Century of Canada–U.S. Relations brings together senior leaders and policy experts to develop a long-term, forward-looking, strategic agenda for bilateral cooperation at a time of heightened economic uncertainty, geopolitical tension and shifting trade dynamics. The Second Century Commission will look beyond current bilateral tensions to focus on long-term cooperation.

Initiated by @MaxBellSchool of Public Policy at @McGill, @SAISHopkins and @CIGIonline.

Last year at @MaxBellSchool, my team and I proposed a Youth Employment Supplement. Today it’s in Policy Options thanks to @SocialCP. Half of young renters spend 50%+ of income on rent. Doubling the CWB for workers under 30 could reach 2M young Canadians.
