According to the Bank of Canada:
"Roughly 40% of Canadians whose underlying ability/human capital would place them in the top 1% of Canada’s income distribution if they had stayed -- now reside outside Canada."
Also: For the next 9% (roughly the 91st–99th percentiles), the implied share abroad is 30–50%.
Money and talent are leaving Canada due to the massively oppressive business environment.

@MPelletierCIO I could have done it for the. For half that price.

@alexandrosM @ClimateAudit @Mega_Halifax No, it is a war crime when Iran committed a wide range of war crimes regardless of their participation or non-participation in UNCLOS.
English
under the "rules-based international order", the Iran Toll is bad because it is international waters, but the US Toll is good because... well, just because.

@ClimateAudit @Mega_Halifax @alexandrosM The U.S. objected to some provisions of UNCLOS, did not ratify UNCLOS, but instead complies with most of the remaining UNCLOS as customary Law of the Sea. Customary Law of the Sea was already the governing prohibition before & parallel to UNCLOS. Iran committed war crimes.

@Mega_Halifax @ClimateAudit @alexandrosM That's false propaganda. The Strait of Hormuz is an international strait in accordance with long-standing customary international law of the sea and UNCLOS.

@vereinscius @TimHoustonNS Democracy is a doctatorship of the majority over a minority. It is how the system works. Go back 3 years and see how the "fringe" minortity was treated.
Human nature has not changed one bit since the Holocaust. It is simply a matter of time and circumstance to happen again.
English
@TimHoustonNS It is all of our responsibility to stand up for those who are ostracised in our society. Niemöller had various iterations of this poem, including the disabled, and in addition, today we should also add the poor, immigrants, foreigners, Indigenous, and 2SLGBTQIA+. Never again!
English
Today on Yom HaShoah, we remember the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust and honour the survivors who carry their stories forward.
We reflect on this horrific chapter in history and stand firm against antisemitism, here at home and around the world.

@BenRabidoux I am not sure it is easy to keep making new companies of your prior ones go bankrupt.
English
This is the SECOND conviction for this asshole.
The issue, as I understand it, is that sanctions typically follow the company not the individual, so this clown can start up another company down the road and abuse the system again
Can anyone confirm?

Canadian New Vehicle Registrations are down, but this data is highly seasonal and slightly skewed by last year's front-running of the trade war.

@BenRabidoux People who can afford are looking for the exits, increasingly. Supply would need to increasingly rely on low paid individuals.

Fewer than 900 single-family home completions across Ontario in February. Lowest since at least 1990

Yes, recession risk...high gas prices. But supply is being throttled and y'all are still hyper-bearish

@ShadowofEzra Yeah, everyone is certain that the hoghest morals govern Bibi's decisions 😀
Fun fact - the people of Israel does not trust and support him, why would Europe?
English
Benjamin Netanyahu threatens all of Europe for not getting involved and starting a world war with Iran, saying Israel will not forget what you did.
Netanyahu says Europe has forgotten many things since the Holocaust and that Israel is protecting all of Europe today.
“It can learn a lot from us.”

@RichardDias_CFA Some were mocking Russia as a gas station with rockets. I wonder, however, how Canada compares to Russia? Canada does not even produce its own gas and has no rockets. So how does its economh and manifacturong compare to Russia's?
English
Nothing can satisfy this Leviathan. This would be funny if it weren't so sad.
*To be clear*, this is because Private Employment has dropped off over the last few months (see below). Nevertheless, Public Employment at a 30-year high amid a productivity emergency, record deficits, and anemic private-sector investment tells a story of an economy that is heading in the wrong direction.

@ImBreckWorsham @netanyahu It is Bibi who is to be mocked, and it is Bibi who makes a laughing stock out of Israel! Wouldn't he retire already, or is he power drunk?

@DrEliDavid Yet, it seems nukes in the hands of Trump might be a lot more dangerous to the world than in the hands of Iranians.
English
People don't seem to understand various uses of enriched uranium:
3-5%: For nuclear power plants
20%: For some specific research purposes
60% and beyond: Only military uses
Iran enriched uranium to 60% for one purpose only: build nuclear weapons. There is no other use for that.
English
@MarchandSurgery @TIME Ha! Very smart. Did you think of this on your own? 😀
English
@TIME Because Iran isn't willing to stop pursuing nuclear weapons.
English
All Iran has to do is say “we won’t build a nuclear weapon and stop funding terrorist groups across the Middle East” and this would all be over.
Why is that so difficult?

South Africa won’t allow Starlink to be licensed, even though I was BORN THERE, simply because I am not Black!
We were offered many times the opportunity to bribe our way to a license by pretending that a Black guy runs Starlink SA, but I have refused to do so on principle.
Racism should not be rewarded no matter to which race it is applied.
Shame on the racist politicians in South Africa. They should be shown no respect whatsoever anywhere in the world and shunned for being unashamedly RACISTS!

Why Elon Musk is RIGHT to fight South Africa’s racist rules blocking Starlink? Imagine this: Long ago, South Africa had very unfair laws called apartheid. They treated Black people badly and kept them from good jobs and money. When those bad laws ended, the country made new rules (called B-BBEE) to help Black people get a fair share of business. The idea was good – like a big helping hand. But now? For companies like Starlink to sell fast internet, they MUST give away 30% of their business to Black partners. Just because of skin color. Elon Musk was born in South Africa. He left as a teen to chase big dreams. Today, his company SpaceX wants to bring Starlink – super fast satellite internet – to South Africa. But the rules say no unless they give up part of the company. Elon said it right: “Starlink is not allowed because I’m not Black.” SpaceX promised to spend about $30 million (that’s 500 million rand!) to give FREE high-speed internet to 5,000 rural schools. That helps over 2.4 MILLION kids every year learn better, get jobs later, and have a brighter future. Real help for the people who need it most! Starlink already works in about 24 other African countries. Villages there now have internet for school, doctors, and business. South Africa’s villages are missing out because of these racist rules. Elon isn’t asking for special favors. He just wants fair play so Starlink can connect everyone fast. Internet = education, jobs, hope. Why hold back millions of kids over rules that pick by race and color?
