For the record.

Mark Carney’s address to the Economic Club of New York was a disciplined, strategically framed intervention that should resonate with business leaders on both sides of the border.

In tone and content, it was exactly the kind of message markets look for from a G7 head of government: pro‑growth, geopolitically literate, and grounded in concrete avenues for investment and partnership.

Carney’s central assertion – that a strong Canada can “help make America great again” – recasts the Canada–U.S. relationship in explicitly pragmatic terms.

Rather than positioning Canada as a counterweight to U.S. economic nationalism, he presented it as a force multiplier for the United States’ own strategic objectives in energy security, supply chains, AI infrastructure, and re‑industrialization.

That framing is shrewd. It acknowledges the realities of a more assertive U.S. trade and industrial policy while offering a collaborative model that can lower costs, reduce risk, and accelerate execution for American firms and investors.

The speech was also notable for its business‑ready specificity. By highlighting Canada’s role as a reliable provider of energy, critical minerals, food, advanced manufacturing, and clean power, Carney translated geopolitical themes into investable opportunities.

His emphasis on rule‑of‑law institutions, regulatory predictability, and a growing network of trade and investment partnerships positioned Canada as an attractive platform for capital seeking both exposure to North American growth and insulation from global volatility.

Equally important was the tone: confident but not complacent, aligned with U.S. strategic priorities without being deferential. Carney managed to speak fluently to Trump’s “America First” agenda while articulating Canada’s own interests with clarity and self‑respect. For corporate leaders, financiers, and policymakers, the result was a reassuring message: Ottawa understands the new landscape, is prepared to work within it, and is focused on building a North American framework that can support durable growth, competitiveness, and security over the coming decade.

The level of ignorance here is beyond belief... Ford is at a photo op announcing how he is spending $1B on a new Science Centre instead of $30M in repairs on the current one, and then says he "prides himself" on saving money???

[Raghu Venugopal MD @raghu_venugopal]

Wake up time. The problem in Toronto isn't EMS being delayed by bike lanes. The problem is when EMS arrives there isn't an ER bed to offload. So the patient and crew remain in the foyer or hall and nothing happens. We underfund our hospitals and we focus on the wrong problem.

The Niagara Parks Commission is failing its mandate if it allows the premier to move ahead with his ill-conceived tourism project, John Law writes.

While @fordnation & his PC MPPs enjoy a day with their family & friends on Victoria Day Monday, they insist 100s of 1000s of Ontario workers do NOT deserve that right.

[Marigold @kittygang_4ever]

I need everyone in Toronto to agree to NOT SHOP ON MONDAY. Stand up for worker’s rights. The more they come after worker’s rights for the people in retail, the more emboldened they will be to go after yours.

Do not shop on Monday. I’m begging.

[tru'dat @trudat2020]

Time to stick it to #DougFord's rich friends.
100s of 1000s of Ontarians had their stat holiday stripped from them & are forced to work Victoria Day.
Do all your shopping on Sat & Sun.
Make Victoria Day a net loss for CEOs.
They'll have to pay workers, but gain no sales revenue.

Less paramedics in hospital hallways means quicker response times in the community.
A paramedic does not belong in a corridor.

@howllr There's a ferris wheel on Clifton Hill already. Do we really need a second one?

Ontario, Harmon Brampton announced its closure two days after it didn't win the $140 million facade subcontract for Peter Gilgan Mississauga Hospital after MAGA Ford's regime awarded $140M subcontract to U.S. company as 700,000 Ontarians were unemployed.

If retailers want to open on holidays out of greed, maybe the response is simple: employees show up, but customers don’t shop. Retailers may rethink opening on holidays pretty quickly if they’re paying wages without bringing in revenue.

[Richard Southern @RichardCityNews]

NEW - Ontario retailers can open for business this Victoria Day Monday. But what about employees who were looking forward to a day off? “No one is going to force them to work" Minister @stcrawford2 tells me. But the opposition worry workers could still face pressure to show up. https://t.co/91pk31zvzk

@grumpyscorates @bikehard400 @cselley That's nice for the LCBO employees. But retail, grocery stores including coffee shops, don't pay OT.
