Thank you Alex, for providing this revealing analysis of these recent population numbers.

It reminded me that there are three types of lies: lies, damned lies and statistics.

Loved the warning from the former Bank of Canada governor (Dodge, not Carney) about the impact on Canadian productivity. Perhaps Dodge would consider overseeing a Canadian DOGE?

Much obliged, Ted! I was thankful they asked, and thankful for the opportunity to speak to a particularly plugged-in audience of policymakers. Dodge has been fantastic for years on all matters of empty-calorie economic decline, he’s sorely needed!
