Today, the Centre of Excellence on the Canadian Federation and the @IOGca launch a report that puts together lessons learned from COVID-19. This is the only pan-Canadian study of its kind - but it is not enough. Governments should take this work further. on-irpp.org/48VDH4S
“The Chinese Communist Party can send push notifications to 170 million Americans from their favorite app” really should be the end of the debate

I’ve noticed this trend with my students over the past several years. Many more today ready to leave and go…well, anywhere. They’re so eager to build a life and a family and increasingly don’t see that as a possibility in Ontario

On this day 7 years ago, I formally announced my decision to pursue political theory. In that time, I’ve achieved two degrees, one publication, received offers from several PhD programs, and made the decision to stay at McGill. It has been an adventure.
The Senate passes a long-delayed $95 billion emergency aid package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. TikTok also faces a US ban under the legislation unless Bytedance divests within 360 days. story: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
311-112-1: House votes to send $60B in aid to Ukraine, including replenishing the U.S. weapons stockpile previously depleted by the war. More Democrats (210) voted for the GOP bill than Republicans (101). 112 Republicans voted “no,” while Rep. Dan Meuser (R-PA) voted “present.”
These protesters were wrong 50 years ago.
Is is amazing how the protesters are always right 50 years ago and always wrong today
Earlier this month I shared, before a house committee, the story of Ashley, a 31-yr old app-based health care worker in PA. We met earlier this year via research w/ @TowardsFairWork. For 2 yrs, Ashley has worked in nursing homes for ShiftKey, which allows her to bid on shifts. 🧵

There really isn't a world in which it's appropriate for a minister who is actively moving a piece of legislation through Parliament to participate in an event concerned with that legislationhosted by the Governor General. This is inappropriate for both the Minister and the GG.
We know that online harms have real world consequences, and now is the critical moment to make the digital world a safe space. With industry experts at the Governor General’s Symposium, we discussed this and our Online Harms Act to create a safe experience for everyone.

TikTok CEO blatantly lied to Congress under oath on the central question of whether American data was being transferred to China. An investigation should be immediately opened for perjury charges. The Senate should do its job and pass the bipartisan House bill with delay.
SCOOP: A TikTok data scientist says he was assigned a Seattle-based manager on paper, while actually reporting to a Beijing-based ByteDance executive, who ordered him to regularly email U.S. data in spreadsheets to ByteDance workers in China during 2022. fortune.com/2024/04/15/tik…
It’s astonishing that we don’t have the political will to simply ban TikTok.

On the one hand, the mayor of Windsor says fourplexes are not illegal to build. On the other hand, the City of Windsor’s zoning code has plenty of zones that say otherwise
@SeanFraserMP “Illegal to build” is a totally false narrative. None of these are “illegal”. Why can’t you guys just be honest in your approach and stop playing politics with housing? #respectlocaldecisionmaking #ambitioushousingplan
Folks underestimate how much happier Canadians will be when they have real housing freedom again. It will empower folks to live better lifestyles, take more risks, and have more kids. Housing abundance isn’t just about affordability; it’s about raising quality of life!
