I always love a good think piece from Dr. Michael Wolfson #cdnpoli

Canada is thinking too small A longstanding issue with funding for scientific research in Canada has been selecting very large scientific projects.

The common phrase “data is the new oil” plus the explosion of artificial intelligence reinforce the importance of #data as critical #infrastructure.

This kind of infrastructure is just as important for economic growth as investments in ports and electricity generation, says Dr. Michael Wolfson

Antibiotics aren't the answer to most toothaches Often patients leave a dentist, walk-in clinic or doctor’s office with an antibiotic prescription for a quick fix.

#Antibiotics continue to be widely prescribed for #toothpain. Studies show antibiotics are often given as a precaution in #dentalcare, even though up to 80 per cent of these #prescriptions are unneeded, say Drs LouAnn Visconti and Susan Sutherland.

Canada ranks 71st for women in politics Canada ranks 71st in the world for women in parliament. Voters support gender quotas to make politics more representative.

For @policyoptions.irpp.org, I wrote about how Canada lags its European and Anglo peers in electing women to parliament, how that harms their reputation, and, drawing on research w/ @dzobrien.bsky.social & Amanda Clayton, why voters prefer gender parity. policyoptions.irpp.org/2025/10/gend...

Le Canada en retard sur la parité des genres en politique Le Canada stagne à 30 % de femmes élues, loin derrière ses partenaires. Les électeurs soutiennent pourtant les quotas.

Égalité des genres : le Canada devrait pratiquer ce qu’il prêche

Sans quotas de genre, les partis canadiens ne répondent pas aux attentes de l’électorat en matière de démocratie juste et représentative.

Canada cannot sell #gender equality abroad without practising it at home

Without #genderquotas, Canadian parties are failing to meet voter expectations for fair and representative #democracy
