I often think of policy work as essentially plumbing: The job is to know how pipes work so you can make them do their job better.

Another new bill aimed at expediting projects in BC!
Bill 15 would allow cabinet to designate projects "provincially significant" if it believes they would "provide economic, environmental or social benefits to British Columbians" (among other powers)
Like Bill 14, it's a confidence vote #bcpoli

90 min down, about 30 min to go.
At least it’s a nice place to stand in line.

We don’t need anything from Canada!
How it’s going:
• Wait, they’re our main source of aluminum?
• Oil too? Seriously?
• Potash? So farms need that?
• They spend billions in tourism?
• They make American cars?
• My house is basically Canadian?
• WTF, we rely on them for electricity?

🇨🇦 Canadian total petroleum liquids production (crude + NGLs) averaged ~5.9 MMbpd in 2024.
That's ~270 kbpd higher year-over-year, making Canada the second largest source of non-OPEC production growth last year behind only the United States.

How effective are R&D tax incentives? Reconciling micro and macro evidence
Recent firm-level studies find R&D tax incentives to be much more effective at stimulating firms' R&D investment than what aggregate analyses indicate. Based on a distributed analysis of official R&D survey and administrative tax relief micro-data for 19 OECD countries, we show that two factors can reconcile these contrasting results. Firstly, a limited uptake of R&D tax incentives in most countries makes aggregate studies underestimate the effectiveness of R&D tax incentives. Secondly, R&D tax incentives are (much) less effective for large and R&D-intensive firms, which account for a small share of R&D-performing firms but most aggregate R&D tax relief, making firm-level studies overstate the aggregate effectiveness of R&D tax incentives.

Does anyone know of analysis that compares price elasticities by economic sector in Canada? A helpful conceptual frame for understanding tariff impacts by sector I think. Anybody doing this?

I remember the first time I got paid a double digit wage for farm work in SK. I got paid at time and a half to shovel rancid grain out of a silo—Felt like I was shovelling money. 😂
