@NCC_CCN Hi! We went there yesterday june 18,2024 around 6.15pm yet the enclosed swimming dock was closed off completely already & no one was allowed in. Just wondering why?& if you post exceptional “early closing time” elsewhere?, as the ncc river house page read closing time:7pm.Thanks!

@RosalesAntulio @b_momani Spot-on.This was our research hole recently with @LillyResearch Exactly what the reads provoked in me, thanks both for putting it out here!If nations like Canada jump the “me first” bandwagon,what/who ‘s left to maintain the global order’s stability&equity on health,a public gd?

In a nutshell! One of the very reasons I choose to be in policy research every 1 day I get, with “Wellbeing as a way of measuring policy impact” always in the background. #policy #research #phd #lovewhatyoudo

@LillyResearch When i first relocated few months back,I had narrow knowledge of domestic USpolitics &of the Canadian state of affairs.I am privileged to have met you &exchange views that have utterly picked my brain. Now I attend US-CND debates & formed policyviews already on CND-going forward!

[Rouba Chbeir @RoubaChbeir]

Loved point of departure of this study, from Rodrik’s trilemma and touched on topics i care about and been engrossed in recently: namely on multilateral institutions’ reform, their importance in our new order , US unilateral knack, and practical ways forward.

@abisat Reality is, we are a long way away from that. With a broken system, how do you talk to IMF&who expedites national interests. Gvt impasses in Lebanon cut deep.But u’re right, does evthng have to freeze? Actioning policy is root of the problem in LEB, less so policy itself i think.

[Rouba Chbeir @RoubaChbeir]

@SamCoatesSky Can elected leaders of a “democracy” just pick up their marbles and leave, just like that and amid times like these, times of de-globalization and shifting gears with a new post-pandemic order? I wonder, Where do we want to take this world, with policy choices like this?

@GuntramWolff @rodrikdani @Bruegel_org Thanks so much for sharing this! Benefited big time with current works and exposures!

[Rouba Chbeir @RoubaChbeir]

Such a refreshing, enriching , thought-provoking watch! Couldn’t have come at better time& rigorous #Sovereignty debates with @LillyResearch Compelled to be Rodrik-biased, beautifully. Yes to thinner globalization, social contracts and policy space!Loved Sapir’s brain-picking too

[Guntram Wolff @GuntramWolff]

in case you missed this fantastic lecture by @rodrikdani and the wonderful reply by @Bruegel_org André Sapir on the famous trilemma. #BAM20 watch it here: https://t.co/bKAFPVkoGa

@NCC_GatPark So disappointed won’t make it today!! Been following your news and park beauty for months; Gatineau only announced red zone last night at midnight, had it all planned from Ottawa. Until next year hopefully, fall rhapsody😷😔

#Lebanon can no longer pull a rabbit out of the hat!Commitment to any reform that People will accept requires a”Governance mode of work” to Get things done. https://t.co/QYuBvzc3IB #lebanesecrisis #protests #reform #governance #ruleoflaw #kaufmann #crockett #civicsociety #growth

@MoneyGram @MoneyGram im still waiting on your kind reply which is now long overdue already. Need a contact person, high ranked, to follow up on how operations are being handled in Lebanon.

[Rouba Chbeir @RoubaChbeir]

@MoneyGram In addition, these $14 need to be bill by bill, exactly equal to $14, when Lebanon does not have 1$ bills in market and is currently scarce on dollars altogether. The office even refused to give me dollar change to $20, or even give me change in LBP. #moneygram #complaint #shame

Lebanon must make a decision next week. This is your Guide (roadmap) to Debt Restructuring i.e. what and who really matters in a case like Lebanon’s (a thread)
