It turns out we didn't really have a good handle on where bank branches were actually located in early Canada... until now! More to come soon

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

@VincentGeloso You should check out some of the work my buddy @Cory_Langlais is doing these days. Really cool stuff on inequality and unemployment using HANK and DSGE models with banks and money built in!

@captgouda24 Boulding in the same tier as Zucman??

At EBHS today, I am presenting this paper on why the fur trade dominated in Canada for so long. The answer is simple: wars made fur the only viable industry. Other industries needed peace to thrive.

With @casey_joe

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

Really excited for this project!

[Cory Langlais @Cory_Langlais]

@GeorgeSelgin I and @casey_joe are revisiting this debate. We are working on getting Canadian clearing house data and quarterly GNP series for Canada's free banking era. Early stages yet. Presenting model at CEAs this Friday. Hopefully by Fall we will have working draft.

@ivandemigoal @Jak3frmStfrm @Bchockey3327 Plus, he's better when Dobson's around. So Dobson back equals Matheson at his best

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

@valentinaruts @joefrancis505 I second Pablo. His work is super awesome!

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

@HockeyyInsiderr @CanadiensMTL I'm actually gutted for Dach. He seems like a good kid, and I think he wants to do better. Obviously had so much potential too. So I hate hating on him, but 100% agree, if the Habs are gonna win two at home here, swap him out for Gally.

@follynomics @captgouda24 Much appreciated. Haha but if I'm rated at all then I'm overrated

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

@LouisROUANET @ufhamilton @UF @UTEP @n_cachanosky Awesome, congrats buddy!

My favourite childhood hockey memory. Still gives me chills!

[Mike Commito @mikecommito]

On this day in 2002, after battling cancer for the most of the season, Canadiens captain Saku Koivu made his emotional return to the lineup #Habs365 #GoHabsGo

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

@AS_Cunningham Yeah, the prairie expansion during the Wheat Boom is wild, eh?? That's cool about the BC prefabs, I didn't know that!

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

@orvn Just double checked, it's actually just an error. It's a branch in Châteauguay (near Montreal), but it got coded as the Châteauguay River (in Northern Quebec, near Labrador)

Overall things are pretty accurate, haha but still some kinks to work out

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

@devroux_mah Cool! Send me an email, we should discuss ways to collaborate

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

@petermjaworski ArcGIS. Neat eh?

The friendly people in the geography department here at MTA have been teaching me how to use it (lol though I'm a slow learner)

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

Just tagging some folks who might find this data interesting: @BryanPCutsinger, @GeorgeSelgin, @VincentGeloso, @kris_inwood, @1954swilliamson, @cwcalomiris, @S_Surprenant, @DavidBeckworth, @vdehejia, @jp_koning

[Casey Joe Pender @casey_joe]

@prinsessmarthe @tonyannett That's kinda the point. Inflation/deflation is now heavily influenced by policymakers, who work hard to prevent all deflation, even the good, productivity-driven kind. There's now a lot of evidence suggesting they should stop doing this

[George Selgin @GeorgeSelgin]

All theories treating deflation as “bad,” without considering its cause, are themselves bad.
