Interviewer: "When you look at today's numbers, what do they tell us about the effectiveness of Donald Trump's tariffs." Me, very serious economist: "Hahahahahahahahahahaha.... hahahahahahahaha.... hahahahahahahahahaha... oh, wow." Sometimes all you can do is laugh at the absurdity of it all.

This is a painful read. I mean seriously painful. But it’s also a must-read, and must-share, for everyone.

Maybe Rex Tillerson Was Right. Maybe Trump Really Is Just A Moron.
His lying and temper tantrums aside, evidence abounds that the president's most important, and dangerous, feature is his ignorance.

File this under “duh”. Anyone who’s spent any time in European cities knows this intuitively, and it becomes especially evident when they get home to Canada’s ridiculous sprawling suburbs.

It was inevitable for things to come to this. Having visited Barcelona twice (both times in the off-season) I'm thrilled to have been fortunate enough to go but cannot help but feel complicit in the exacerbation of the scourge of over-tourism.

My wife complains that our Ford Escape is “too big”. After spending a few weeks vacationing in the south of France, I agree. However, in the Costco parking lot… Fuck I *hate* North American car culture and endless suburbs and exurbs and stroads and F-150s everywhere.

Shout-out to

This is indeed the best interview to date with PM Mark Carney. 👇 It’s long but worth every minute. I encourage you to take the time to listen & encourage others to do so as well. I am so grateful that this man has stood up. Now we need to make sure he is the next Prime Minister of Canada

Makes me so sad. At least as American Millennial, there was a joke rivalry, but Canada were supposed to be our literal closest bro's in the world? The nicest people you could possibly meet. Like literally comically loving of Americans, you would NEVER do ANYTHING to hurt them. What have we done...

“Is Coors Light Canadian?” Sure it is, given Molson/Coors convoluted corporate structure and the water they use… making it about as Canadian as moose piss, which I won’t drink either.

When figuring out if a particular beer is Canadian, you may have to choose what matters to you most — where it's produced, where the ingredients come from, or who owns the company.

A typical European car is parked 92% of the time. It spends 1/5th of its driving time looking for parking. Its 5 seats only move 1.5 people. 86% of its fuel never reaches the wheels, and most of the energy that does, moves the car, not the people. Sound efficient? HT

Hello folks. Jim Cuddy here. Due to our troubles with our neighbours in The States, I was inspired to write a little song. It’s called “We Used to Be the Best of Friends”.
