Hi I am Nick Ainis and I guess I have something to say...

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

Today is an exciting day! I am pleased to introduce my new book, Building Toronto's Skyline: Toronto Condominiums Through The Decades. Grab your copy and learn all about the history of Toronto's incredible skyline! #BuildingTorontosSkyline #TorontoCondos #NickAinis #Fusioncorp

I like this….show us the transparency here explain in detail what happened what was on the table so we can truly understand why the deal went bad. Let Canadians know the truth and without that we cannot move forward! Canadians deserve answers

[Wes Jones @realWesJones]

🚨🇨🇦 WELL… TOMORROW CAME.

Carney says the U.S. changed the deal.

The U.S. says CANADA changed the deal.

50% tariffs are now here.

And Canadians are left with two completely different stories.

So I made Part II.

🎵 SHOW US THE DRAFT.

Who moved the goalposts?
Who changed the terms?
What REALLY happened in those final hours?

I don't want another press release telling me who to blame.

Put the versions side by side and let Canadians see for themselves.

Trump says Canada moved.
Carney says Trump moved.

Fine.

SHOW. US. THE. DRAFT. 🇨🇦

🎥 Sound ON. Watch to the end.

🔁 Repost if you think Canadians deserve the receipts.

@gladman @KarenStintz Thank you

🤝 MIKE & NICK: WHERE WE AGREE

Canada Needs Certainty on Trade

Mike and I may come at politics from different sides, but here's something I think we can both agree on:

🇨🇦 Canada needs to bring the uncertainty surrounding U.S. trade to an end.

We can debate whether Mark Carney has negotiated effectively.

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

@SatireSquadHQ Love this one, but isn’t it so true! What kind of democracy are we living in? not much of one

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

“The skilled trades offer young people serious earning potential, entrepreneurship and a path to business ownership. That’s success.”

I’ve seen it firsthand.

The trades aren’t a backup plan—they’re a real path to building something meaningful.

🇨🇦 MIKE & NICK: THE CANADA DEBATE

Trump says there’s a deal. Tariffs paused.
But… who actually won?

What did Canada protect? What did we give up?

This is Carney’s report card.

Did Canada get a fair deal—or concede too much?

What’s your take? 🥊

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

As CEO of Fusioncorp, I’ve spent years reviewing projects before being hired—budgets, drawings, challenges.

If you want another perspective on your project, reach out.

No cost. No obligation.

That’s how strong partnerships start.

🥊 MIKE & NICK: LEFT JAB / RIGHT JAB 🇨🇦
Is Canada’s economy working?

🔵 Mike: Balance growth with housing & infrastructure.
🔴 Nick: Costs high, productivity weak—make Canada easier to invest & build.

Who wins?

🚨 New Project | North Bay

Working with Oikeo on a 53-unit affordable housing project—designed with Z01 Architects.

Important step toward delivering more housing where it’s needed.

My producer Toronto Mike & I don’t always agree—and that’s the point.

Politics, business, Canada, headlines. We debate, disagree, laugh… and still grab a beer 🍺

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

Are the skilled trades finally becoming a first choice again?

Seeing it in my own family. My nephew chose that path—and it’s reinforced something I’ve always believed:

Trades aren’t a fallback. They’re a real opportunity

As Canada builds more, we need people who can build it.

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

🤝 Mike & Nick: Where We Agree

We don’t agree on everything — but we agree on this:

🇨🇦 Canada needs to be more competitive.

AI, investment, infrastructure, jobs… we can debate the “how,” but standing still isn’t a strategy.

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

@MarkCarneyEgo Funny but true!

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

🏗️ We looked at this Toronto site years ago and passed.

Today? We’re back—exploring more density.

Same property. Different planning environment. More housing potential.

That’s how fast things are changing.

🇨🇦 THURSDAY: THE CANADA DEBATE

Can Canada actually compete in the AI race?

The U.S. is pouring billions into AI, data centres, energy & tech. Canada has talent—but are we creating the conditions to build here?

Can we compete—and if not, what needs to change?

🎙️ Mike & Nick — Left vs Right

#CanadaDebate #AI #Canada #Tech

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

@TheTorontoSun This doesn’t surprise me and one of the reasons why every day Canadians are struggling we are paying too much taxes in this country

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

🏗️ New Toronto project for Fusioncorp.

5 storeys approved, exploring potential for 6+.

This is where the market is heading—Missing Middle housing that fits communities and delivers more homes faster.

No talking points. No safe takes. No holds barred.

Just real conversations, different perspectives, and a few laughs.

[Nick Ainis @nick_ainis]

We’ve modernized construction tech.

But the flow of money? Still slow.

Draws, approvals, delays—while contractors finance the work.

In a digital world, shouldn’t payments move faster too?

Better transparency could enable better speed.

🎙️ Mike & Nick — Left vs Right

Sharing past episodes here. I host this with Toronto Mike—politics, business & headlines.

We don’t always agree… that’s the point 😂

CUSMA, recession, AI, Trump & more.

🎧 Politics is better when we don’t all agree 🇨🇦
