I was surprised at how in demand they are! Still a 2 year wait in Canada at many dealerships.

Joined an exclusive club this week. Toyota Sienna owners… landed in Canada before tariffs hit (Indiana product). My tariff tangent story

Wrote a short piece on supply of new and unsold housing in Canada. It is rising a lot, specifically in Met Van , but I am skeptical of CMHC’s counts for Toronto.

BC Conservatives wage internal caucus battle over social values Conservative Leader John Rustad acknowledges he must work to bring his caucus together, will use time until legislature sits to remind members to focus on issues that matter to British Columbians

Really interesting developments. My own take is simple. If you want the confidence of the population govern, there needs to be clarity in the party’s social values as well. It really is not clear.

Real talk… If Trump triggers the tariff, it looks like the Sienna I put a deposit on will be more $$. Built in Indiana… on the bright side, maybe the higher price forces more buyers out of the market…

Trump vows to slap 25 per cent tariff on all products from Canada, Mexico Tariffs would stand until both countries crack down on drugs and immigrants entering the U.S. illegally, Trump said on social media

BC is spectacular. Braved the “bomb cyclone” on the island and had a nice time in Nanaimo and Courtenay visiting our #coastalcommunityCU member clients. It was fun meeting their member and Island business leaders to chat the economy #creditunion #bc

It is now like celebrity apprentice in US politics. Waiting for 2025 to see who will be fired first

Where I ended off on the other site

New data for provinces showed BC GDP expanded fastest among provinces in 2023 at 2.4%. Yes, pop grew fast as well at about 3.4% (negative per capita), but that trailed Alberta which posted similar GDP growth, and Ontario which had a 1.6% real GDP growth rate.
