Canada added 75K jobs in July, well above the 15K forecasted. Driven mostly by gains in Ontario.

Very positive trend in the right direction.

Thank you Premier Doug Ford for this. This is what leadership should be about. Calling out the attention of another tier of government to doing the right thing and not just condemning it.

Canadians can’t afford higher taxes at the pumps right now.

The federal suspension of excise fuel taxes ends in a month. This morning, I wrote to Prime Minister Carney to urge him to extend this relief to at least January 1. Or better yet, match Ontario’s ambition and cut it for good.

I just heard someone saying that flat tummy is a sign of poverty!

My question is that do people looking for it want to be poor?

This is great news. Does this mean there will soon be direct flights from Nigeria to Canada? If that’s so, travel times will be shorter.

PRESS RELEASE

NIGERIA, CANADA SIGN EXPANDED AIR TRANSPORT AGREEMENT FOR DIRECT FLIGHTS, TRADES AND CONNECTIVITY

In a landmark step towards strengthening bilateral aviation relations and expanding economic cooperation, the Federal Government of Nigeria and the Government of Canada have signed an expanded Air Transport Agreement that will, for the first time, permit direct scheduled air services between both countries.

The Honourable Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, SAN, CON, FCIArb (UK), was represented at the signing ceremony by the Director of Air Transport Management, Federal Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Mr. Mohammed Ahmed Tijjani, who joined the Canadian Chief Air Negotiator for Global Affairs, Ms. Shendra Melia, at the High Commission of Canada in Abuja to formalize the historic agreement.

The signing followed an extensive Nigeria–Canada Air Transport Expansion Technical Review Worksession, during which both delegations reviewed the existing Bilateral Air Services framework and reached a consensus that culminated in the signing of the Agreed Minutes.

The Nigerian delegation comprised Mr. Mohammed Ahmed Tijjani, Director, Air Transport Management; Mrs. Jummai Yahaya, Esq., Director, Legal Services, Federal Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development; Mrs. Olayinka Babaoye-Iriobe, Director, Air Transport Regulation, Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), alongside other senior government officials.

The Canadian delegation was led by Ms. Shendra Melia, Chief Air Negotiator for Global Affairs Canada, and included Mr. Jathorsan Lingarajan, Trade Policy Officer, Global Affairs Canada, and Mr. Steven Worth, Manager and Senior Policy Advisor, Transport Canada, among other officials.

The expanded agreement marks a significant milestone in the aviation relationship between Nigeria and Canada. It introduces several important enhancements designed to improve connectivity, promote tourism, facilitate trade, and create new opportunities for airlines and businesses in both countries.

Key highlights of the expanded Air Transport Agreement include:

- The right for Nigeria and Canada to designate multiple airlines to operate scheduled air services between the two countries.
- A capacity allowance of 14 weekly passenger flights and 10 weekly all-cargo flights for the designated airlines of each country.
- The granting of Fifth Freedom Traffic Rights for all-cargo operations, allowing cargo airlines to transport freight between two foreign countries, provided the service originates or terminates in the airline's home country.

The agreement is expected to significantly enhance air connectivity between Nigeria and Canada by paving the way for the commencement of direct flights, thereby reducing travel time, improving passenger convenience, lowering logistics costs, and strengthening commercial and cultural ties between both nations.

The development is particularly significant given the growing people-to-people relationship between Nigeria and Canada. As of 31 March 2026, more than 25,000 Nigerians hold valid Canadian study permits, making Nigeria one of Canada's major international student source countries. The enhanced aviation framework is expected to further support educational exchanges, tourism, business travel, investment, and family reunification.

The Nigeria–Canada Air Transport Agreement was originally negotiated in 2014 as a code-share-only arrangement and formally signed in March 2025. The current agreement represents the first major expansion of the bilateral air services framework since its negotiation over a decade ago.

'State accounts are not ordinary customer accounts. They are instruments through which a constitutionally recognised tier of government pays salaries, pensions, hospitals, schools and other public obligations.

That does not place allegedly stolen funds beyond investigation. However, a blanket freeze capable of paralysing an entire state raises serious constitutional and proportionality concerns.

The better approach is to trace the suspicious transfers, obtain an urgent preservation order, ring-fence the disputed N11bn and leave unaffected public funds available for lawful government operations.

Anti-corruption enforcement must protect public money without disabling public administration. That is a goal worth pursuing.'

TFSAs in Canada are a terrible idea. You're putting stocks & investments into a BS tax-free savings account, but you're still taxed 30-48% when U cash out.

The solution is to move your entire portfolio to an American brokerage house immediately. #CRA has no jurisdiction

@iSlimfit Why am I reading naija political language to this?

[Ololade Jesufemi @talk2mrmoney]

Interesting how tables can turn in 4 years.

In 2022 Obidients were on rampage on social media. They were saying “how will a sane person be supporting Tinubu”?

Now, 2026, BATists have taken over social media. They are now pushing the agenda of “how will a sane person be supporting Obi”?

Make Una no sha die for any politician. Don’t lose relationships cos of any politician. Those guys align easily when their political interests differences align. They are business partners, they are in-laws. They are political associates.
