Amazing way to see what Parliament is working on and a fair assessment of whether it’s appropriate, overreach, or expensive. Even comes with recommended changes. Love the opportunity to get educated!

It takes in all the bills from parliament and asks, "What would a Builder think of this bill?"

Including votes, question period questions, and analysis – all from a pro-growth lens.

New research shows Idaho lost one in three obstetricians after its abortion ban took effect

About half of those OBs left the state—and none moved to states with abortion bans, the lead author says.

More evidence that abortion bans impact other forms of health care. New @motherjones.com:

Republicans in Congress authorized Trump to make Americans pay 50% more for anything they buy from Brazil because they are prosecuting his friend. None of this is possible without their acquiescence, and not one has spoken out against them so they own every bit of every tariff.

The arbitrator picked the easiest of 3 thorny jurisdiction issues, the fact that the code of conduct was forced on skaters enroute to comps, but the other two impact all Cdn sports and are thorny: conduct that happens pre-singing of the code, and location and nationality at time of conduct.

One of many reasons it’s dumb to try and “fix” the trade deficit with tariffs is that trade wars hurt *exports* in addition to imports—keep in mind we usually have a manufacturing trade *surplus* with Canada, before Trump began wrecking that trade relationship
Trump's trade war is also hurting US exports—the amount of US-made goods sent to key markets like Canada, Mexico, and China has tanked amidst retaliatory tariffs & consumer backlash

For dangerous jobs, unions are important. For most jobs, they strangle innovation and change. Canada Post desperately trying to remain relevant and the union fighting it all the way.
Canada Post wants to create a new class of flexible, part-time worker that will better compete with Amazon and implement “dynamic routing” so delivery routes can be changed on the fly.

It’s a good example of how Amazon degrades workers’ rights even beyond its walls. Workers are right to push back.

(6/6) On one hand, any new CEO wants to inspire the troops especially after years of demoralization by Rick Leary. On the other, some hard questions must be asked about why "we do things this way".

Great vid.
Why did the left-leaning Liberals win the election in Canada? They painted a vision of the future that the popular vote could get behind. AOC is doing this, and the rest of the Democrats need to watch and learn.

After the Second World War, as Canada was coming through what some called the "post-war gloom", a young woman from Ottawa brightened things with her skills on the ice.
She was Barbara Ann Scott and this is the story of how she captured the hearts of Canadians.
