Part of why I take reporting on internal political machinery with a big grain of salt is that it always focuses on personalities rather than the process. I don't care about political gossip and all of this pulls focus from the project of building a stronger democracy.

Friendly reminder that Canada is VERY lucky to have an amazing credit union system! If you're unhappy with these decisions, please consider switching to a local option and keep your money in your community
Prof. Ryan Katz-Rosene@ryankatzrosene

You can never really trust Canada's 'Big 5' banks. "Royal Bank of Canada and Scotiabank both announced on April 16 they are abandoning their interim climate targets. Scotiabank is going a step further by entirely ditching its net-zero by 2050 target. Both blamed changes in government policy."

JJ’s favourite book right now is The Very Hungry Caterpillar! After reading it to her 5x per day, of course I couldn’t help but see it as an allegory for extractive capitalism! Video below ⤵️

How is everyone feeling about Mark Carney these days? I’m seeing a couple of things happening behind the scenes that make me very excited! Check out my latest video podcast and let me know if you agree that he might just be a sheep in wolf’s clothing. youtu.be/Ou8xHW0NDt8

To those suggesting GDP per capita isn't a great measure of wellbeing - note that it is the *one* measure of wellbeing where Canada's performing relatively well! Pretty much across the board, Canada's standard of living has been in decline relative to our global peers.

Solar and battery storage combined drove 81% of new U.S. grid capacity in 2025. 32.5 GW solar + 18.2 GW storage = 50.7 GW of zero-fuel infrastructure. The grid isn't choosing renewables anymore. It's economically opting to - with Texas leading the way

Getting to chat with @wealthy_barber on all things financial planning is definitely a huge moment in 2025. We talk about investing (and why fees matter), RRSP vs TFSA, Estate planning dos and don'ts, and a whole lot more! Dave Chilton has been an expert in this space for over 40 years. My dad got a copy of his original book and I happened to read that in my early teen years and credit that book to laying some of the seeds for where I am today. You should do 2 things: 1) Go listen to this podcast. Not just my episode, but all the other ones before it because there is so much actionable insight the guests share. We discuss it briefly but many of those guests are where I get a lot of my wisdom from. 2) Pick up Dave's 2025 edition of the Wealthy Barber. I mention this in the podcast but there are nuances in the book discussed (Like RRSP contributions impacting your Canada Child Benefit) that I have not seen discussed anywhere else save for a few of Canada's best financial planners. If you want to level up your own personal finance knowledge - this book will set you on that path for sure. It's also an incredibly easy and entertaining read. P.S. thanks @AaronHectorCFP for teaching me the RESP & Wills + Successor Holder trick. You get some love on this podcast episode for that among other wisdom you've dropped.

Episode #36 is out now! Our guest this episode is @AravindSitham, a financial planner at Ironwood Wealth Management Group. Earlier this year, Aravind earned his CFP® designation with the highest exam score in the country, placing him at the top of the CFP® Exam President’s List, and was also selected for @OfficialFPCan’s Emerging Leader’s Award. In this conversation, Dave and Aravind walk through what great financial planning actually looks like in practice. They discuss the “financial quarterback” model, Aravind's four-step process for investing and why assessing true risk tolerance goes far beyond a simple questionnaire. Aravind explains how biology and financial stress affect investor behaviour, why unusually high returns are unlikely to last forever and how personal preferences should factor into a well-designed plan. The episode also dives into estate and tax planning topics that are often overlooked—from common estate planning mistakes and the risks of joint accounts to when RRSPs should be left to an estate, how taxes work at death and traps grandparents can fall into with RESPs. The conversation wraps up with a practical comparison of TFSAs vs. RRSPs, a discussion on alternative investments and Aravind’s personal story about discovering The Wealthy Barber. Whether you’re building your first financial plan or refining an existing one, this episode is packed with clear, thoughtful insights from one of Canada’s brightest young planners. Listen now on our website, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts!

@tylermeredith @adamzivo GDP per capita is the best KPI for measuring standard of living. The score is the score. You can't say the score is meaningless after losing the game.

How many right wing online accounts will now update their meme charts to this new data set? The talking point of no growth in a decade is dead dead dead. #cdnpoli

Sizable revisions, dating back years, to Canada's GDP is one of the more underreported stories of the past week. Bottom line: Canada economy was in much stronger shape prior to trade conflict than originally believed. Chart, via @globeandmail, tells the story:

@ExnerPirot IMO the tentative deal between Hydro-Québec & Newfoundland and Labrador is a HUGE deal and deserves much more attention

Hydro-Québec is now buying more power from outside the province than it’s exporting, a significant reversal from years past. Demand for electricity in Quebec is expected to double by 2050. They are pushing a $200B plan which involves tripling wind-power. theglobeandmail.com/business/artic…

@JavierBlas @smh It's a fair article, but I shudder to think about what it means for future generations regarding climate change.
