The Future Belongs to the Countries That Build
Driving from Vancouver to Whistler last month, I was reminded why Canada inspires such pride. Few places offer a landscape where ocean, mountains, farms, harbours, factories, small towns, and major cities coexist so seamlessly. It is a country both vast and resource-rich, but also one defined by the people who shaped it. Canada did not […]

Ottawa’s Mayor and Council Are Failing on Addiction and Homelessness — Alberta Shows a Way Forward
A structured, recovery-oriented system could help Ottawa break the cycle of addiction, homelessness, and public disorder. Ottawa’s approach to homelessness and addiction is failing.

It’s Time to Untie Canada’s Shoelaces: How Policy Paralysis Is Holding Back Our Resource Wealth
By Sean Maisonneuve Canada is a paradox. Geographically and geologically, it holds a winning hand: nearly 10 million square kilometres, massive oil and gas reserves, world-leading deposits of critical minerals, vast forests, the largest supply of freshwater lakes, and the longest coastline on Earth. Yet despite this wealth, Canada is effectively tying its own shoelaces […]

As I drove […]

Instead that 3-2 gut-punch means the surging/surviving Senators remain a […]
