Its official: we have our nominees!
Best of luck to Kimberly Fairman and Jackie Jacobson. The North is very lucky to have such great members of the community working for the NWT 🤩
BREAKING: RBC reports today that it now takes a record-smashing 63.5% of median household PRE-TAX income to make payments on a typical home.
But don’t worry, the guys who made it happen (Trudeau & Fraser) had another photo op today & announced yet another program. This time I’m sure it will work.
The Trudeau tax is hurting northern Canadians who have no choice but to drive trucks and heat homes.
Axe the tax. For all. For good.

Meta's Nick Clegg has just, really disappointingly, declined my request for a private call regarding Meta's news ban. I had hoped to find a solution Meta could live with that would help us preserve life during this extreme fire season.
