1/ The biggest problem in today's world? It's not climate change, pandemics, or democratic collapse. It's that too many brilliant minds are stuck in boring corporate jobs, instead of working on those problems.

Entering month 6 of the Mamdani mayorship of NYC and Robberies are down 11%, Retail theft is down 19%, and Murder is down an astounding 21%.

And he did so without "Adding 5000 new cops" to the streets. Instead, he's invested in public safety with free childcare, accessible infrastructure, and better funded schools and libraries. He's proven once again that if we want safer communities, we must invest in People—not Punishments.

@MikeTheNavyGuy1 @stphnmaher You are correct.

The problem is that they want that hardcore base angry, loud, motivated, and most of all posting on social media.

That creates the false impression that a lot of people do care and it is a big deal.

So once again social media is the problem.

At dinner last night a man explained that the local rice was drowned in glyphosate.

He spent 20 minutes warning me about chemicals in food.

Then he stepped outside and smoked a cigarette.

I’ve never seen a better demonstration that people don’t fear risk.

They fear stories.

Question for the 6% of Albertans who want us to become a US resource colony: why not just go there and make a refugee claim?

You’ll be hosted in a lovely ICE detention facility while the Trump Administration determines whether you really are being oppressed in Canada by the “globalist deep state,” or whatever.

Two great character actors going head to head and creating pure gold.
Richard Jordan and Joss Ackland only share three short scenes in The Hunt for Red October (1990), but every glance, pause, and polite line lands like a move in a ruthless chess match. Absolute perfection.

PM Carney warned Canadians that things would get worse before they got better, so the man is honest. I’ve never seen a PM hustle economically as much as this across the world and the country. If a barely-nicked recession is the worst of it after economic war with the US, wow.

We are saying no to a data centre in Île-des-Chênes because there are big threats to the environment and not much benefit to the economy.

Our message to any tech company out there… if you want to build technology with a thoughtful, human-centred approach that puts humanity first, then Manitoba is open for business. 🦬

Martin Patriquin on Mark Carney's speech in New York: Everything Mr. Carney was saying in that speech basically goes along with what he said in Davos ... But what he's done is branded it with a very important bumper sticker, "Make America Great Again."

The interesting thing for me is to watch the US reaction to it. They did not like that Davos speech one bit. Pete Hoekstra certainly didn't like it. He telegraphed how happy he was to hear Carney say those very words.

When Carney is saying the exact same thing now as he was saying before, it just goes to show the importance of packaging when negotiating with the Donald Trump administration.

If we are going to call the cost of public services a “loss,” then Canadian police forces lost $20 billion last year while delivering no birthday presents and also killing a lot of people.

Imagine if a woman president crashed the economy and started a war with no end in sight, and her biggest, seemingly ONLY concern was building a ballroom and redecorating the White House.
