We condemn the hateful attack that injured faculty and students at @UWaterloo. Hate has no place in the university environment, and we must fight against misogyny, as well as transphobia, which seems to have motivated this attack.

Signed, CEA affinity groups

I’m actually very impressed with @UWaterlooPres remarks at this very well attended rally. He is naming the violence, and its targets, and the nature of the danger. Thank you, @UWaterloo

The members of CWEC are horrified and saddened over the violent act of hatred that occurred at the University of Waterloo. We strongly condemn any form of misogyny and anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment. Our thoughts are with the professor and students who were injured and their families.

It is National Indigenous History Month. DYK that there is a @CanEconomics study group called the Indigenous Economics Study Group? Its first sessions at the annual conference were in 2021 and those involved have been producing amazing work. Contact @robgillezeau for more info.

TL;DR "As in previous editions, this report shows a stable trend where women are underrepresented in economics. This underrepresentation becomes more pronounced as women move along the academic pipeline. With each new report, these conclusions are discouragingly consistent."

Congratulations to David Green from @ubcVSE giving his Presidential Lecture at @CanEconomics #CEA2023. Tour de force of theory & data regarding Basic Income policies: strengths, weaknesses, costs, interactions. Thank you David for your careful, compassionate research. #cdnecon

[Umut Oğuzoğlu @HopeEcon]

Our students were just amazing!

Without their many hours of hard work, it’d be only chaos at #ACEA23.

I am very proud of you all! @UMArtsFaculty @umanitoba @uwinnipeg

[Rob Gillezeau @robgillezeau]

David Green has been such a tremendous @CanEconomics president. It's a joy to celebrate his efforts with a full house for his presidential address on basic income and the labour market. #ACEA23 https://t.co/dtVBz5i6Z8
