To my fellow Britons -- The UK is Canada's 4th largest export market, but it could become larger. I encourage you to BUY CANADIAN. I imagine that few of us are in the market for nickel ore or timber, but there are various consumer goods available, e.g.: marksandspencer.com/food/raw-canad…

Vienna has a long history of struggling with floods — heavy investments in disaster protection are now paying off.

Relive a legendary moment from #TheLastWaltz as Bob Dylan joins The Band for a performance of ‘Baby Let Me Follow You Down.’ This collaboration is one of many that shaped their journey. Dylan's The 1974 Live Recordings drops this Friday, featuring The Band backing him up!

Excellent piece from CBC. Good to see Paul Beaudry engaging in this conversation. Only quibble is the journalist's use of the term "wealth" is unfortunate. GDP per capita doesn't measure wealth as the article claims. GDP is a flow; wealth is a stock. cbc.ca/news/politics/…

This book is like five books in one (well over 1000 pages) but that does make it so beautifully rich and rewarding. Can't recommend it enough for anyone interested in European history in general. Truly the most readable extremely deep dive into Austrian history out there.

@bsalonso300 @LdelaEscosura Pablo and I were graduate students together at Toronto. I was very fortunate to have met him. He was my introduction to Spanish economic history. We reconnected a couple of years ago. He was ever generous, warm and encouraging. I will miss him.

Pablo Martín-Aceña passed away today. He was an outstanding economic historian, editor of Revista de Historia Económica for many years and a very very dear friend. He will be greatly missed.
