Had anyone come across research papers that look at the link between the quality of a country’s democracy and how well politicians manage sovereign wealth funds? Do stronger democracies do a better job? Do autocracies do better than democracies?

For our latest report, authored by @RobinShaban, we conducted a foresight analysis that envisions three possible futures for Canada in the year 2040. Canada’s economic future depends on the steps that are taken — or not taken — now to boost financial and economic inclusion.

Thank you for having me!
Ontario Chamber@OntarioCofC

The return of the OCC’s Policy Debate Series did not disappoint! 🔥👏 A big thank you to all our incredible debaters, including, @DrewFagan4, @FlavioVolpe1, @MikePMoffatt, @RobinShaban, and Moderator, @spaikin for their energy and insights that truly shone through in each round of the debate. Not only did their passion elevate the discussion, but it also sparked meaningful conversations beyond whether Ontario Is Losing Its Global Competitive Advantage that will resonate long after the event. Each of you demonstrated exceptional skill, thoughtfulness, and commitment to the craft of debate. While the debate for whether Ontario’s strengths can offset its growing vulnerabilities seems to have been resolved… one question that seems to be up for debate post #OES2024 is whether pineapple truly belongs on pizza. 💭😅 Joking aside… let’s continue pushing our province’s boundaries and inspiring meaningful change to #FutureProofON!

It's a computer program from Statistics Canada that lets you model potential changes to federal and provincial taxes and transfers, including personal income taxes, child and family tax credits, and sales taxes.

Have you ever wanted to learn how to use the Social Policy Simulation Database/Model (SPSD/M)? I'm offering my half-day course on January 28. It will get you up and running with the program, and is a great compliment to the four-day intensive training offered by StatsCan

@zoewhittall @LoriRoss_UofT I agree, except I don't think we should be making a joke of it. Prejudice like in the Globe has real, negative impacts on people. We should be working to combat that prejudice. I have a nerd rant about it here in case you are interested. shorturl.at/mRX3y

I wrote a response to the Globe op-Ed about young women increasingly identifying as bi. Basically who cares? Thanks to @LoriRoss_UofT for saying actually smart things between my jokes and nostalgia. thestar.com/opinion/contri…
