Unshaming by @jowitabydlowska.bsky.social is one of those rare books where my reaction is simply to want to say thank you to the author for writing this. Pre-order from your indie bookseller or put a hold on at the library. See www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/771472...

Hey, thanks, Ron. Yes, the book (written with tax prof Neil Brooks) explains how a modest wealth tax on ultra-wealthy Canadians could raise billions a year, and make this a much more equal country. If billionaires chose to leave, they'd face a hefty exit tax. #canlab
