I found this graph interesting because it's inverse from what usually happens in neighbourhood development - usually houses are built first, and economic opportunity (jobs & entertainment) in the area excluded or an after-thought. I prefer this model, thanks @BrookingsInst. https://t.co/Jg82HKbG56
FOLKS—if you think #COVID19 cases is really bad in the US, it is even more epically surging in the UK 🇬🇧 & Ireland 🇮🇪. I made a short video... and highlighted the simultaneous rise in the more contagious b117 variant. Denmark CDC thinks B117 will become dominant strain by Feb. 🧵
Rent reduction/support and affordable rent plays a key role in keeping small businesses alive. Childcare spaces are always important but now more than ever. Thank you to councillors and MPs taking action for @garderietunneys. @cathmckenna@jyduclos#savetunneys

Stay tuned today for an exciting announcement that I’ll be making today with @JustinTrudeau and Michael Sabia, Chair @cib_en on new infrastructure investments that will create good jobs for Canadians and build stronger, cleaner, and more inclusive communities.
We can no longer separate climate change policy from economic policy. They need to be integrated to effectively manage risks and capture opportunities. https://t.co/N8AhlZAzCF

Canada cannot stand by and do nothing as our planet burns — that's not who we are. That's why we're working together with our G7 partners and offering water bombers to fight the fires and funding for emergency response and reforestation. https://t.co/bH0ow6EzdX
