What happens when immigration, trade pressures, housing shortages and the energy transition all converge in one rural community?
Our latest Community Transformations profile looks at how Neepawa is navigating transformation and what it means for rural Canada.

Some historical and comparative context from me, with a particular focus on industrial policy.
Like others before, the PM is committed to cooperative federalism. Without institutional reform, however, competitive federalism will prevail.

Je suis naturellement prédisposé à ne pas l’aimer mais je me posais la même question. Même à 5 contre 5 je trouve qu’il ne suit pas!
That US goalie is pretty good, eh?
Last lap! Time to get back to it.
Groceries & essentials are straining lower income household budgets.The CGEB could reach 12M+ Canadians.Who qualifies? How much will people receive? Who will benefit the most?

Btw, it’s a sore point for cross-country skiing purists. Biathlon is way more popular now and you can see that by how different the two venues look at these Olympics!
As they say in the hockey world, that’s quite the lettuce.
Need something on the hair of that Dutch guy though. Would make it more exciting if he didn’t have the hood on while skating!
And he did it again in the one race where he wasn’t the favourite.
Except maybe tomorrow!
Thanks for tuning in Bryan!
This is based on recommendations from the Comité sur les enjeux constitutionnels du Québec in 2024. So although the goal is the same, the approach is different!
Sorry, this is in FR, can't find an English equivalent, but here's where QC is at on this, with Carney's response at the end:

Looking forward to seeing what the bikes look like. That’s also where EF has been great.

New work on on Immigration attitudes, out in @irpp.org with @natashagoel.bsky.social
We show dramatical increase in anti-immigration opinion in Canada over the past couple of years.
Its very different than previous shifts like in 1990s...
Have the book in my hands (thanks to Alex), really looking forward to reading it!
Ha! Not really paying attention to be honest. Habs on the other hand…
Michael M. Atkinson & Haizhen Mou: "Creating an independent fiscal council charged with designing fiscal rules and monitoring compliance would help restore discipline to Canada’s fiscal governance."

Wouldn't it be great if someone found a way to do a crisp English-language summary of the excellent @irpp.org report from @cbreton.bsky.social on the state of Quebec politics 30 years after the 1995 referendum?

Ha ha ha! Lots of good stuff this morning!
Graphique en ligne qui montre l'évolution de l'appui à la souveraineté. Le sondage Confédération de demain utilise la même question depuis 2019 pour mesurer l’appui à la souveraineté en demandant aux Québécois s’ils se considèrent principalement souverainistes, principalement fédéralistes, entre les deux ou ni l’un ni l’autre. En 2025, c’est l’option «Entre les deux » qui récolte la plus grande proportion de répondants avec 31 %. Les catégories « Principalement fédéraliste » et «Principalement souverainiste » obtiennent quant à elles une proportion assez stable de répondants depuis 2019. En 2025, la proportion de «Principalement fédéraliste » surpasse légèrement celle de «Principalement souverainiste » à 24 % contre 21 %
Si vous voulez juste le résultat principal...le voilà! Mais y'a plein d'autres trucs intéressants dans le rapport, c'est promis!
