We hit the streets of Toronto to ask our upcoming founders: why build in Canada? 🍁
Short answer: abundant talent, a one of a kind community, and a home worth building for.
This is only a fraction of Canada's talent. Which city should we hit next?

For the next month, the world's at our feet.
Eyes are on us in ways not quite like our co-hosts.
This is a moment for the nation, and winning won't just be measured in goals scored.

The OTPP turned a $300M bet on the $SPCX IPO into ~$16B CAD – roughly $33.5K per each of it's 346K teachers.
Thousands more Canadians are along for the ride through their RRSPs, TFSAs, & retail investment.

Canada is all together different. Truly unique. And so is our relationship to the beautiful game. This is our opening to the 2026 World Cup. Narrated by Kiefer Sutherland. #FIFAWorldCup

Old-Age Security is the biggest cheque Ottawa writes every year. 💰
The tab is climbing faster than we can afford. Can you reform it?

We have fiscal transfers and tax credits targeted to eliminate poverty. They are the federal government's biggest spending priority.
Are they effective? Can we do better?
We built FISCAL PLINKO to find out!
Change the policy and see how Canadians drop through the system!

Two Canadian unicorns in two days. 🦄✨
A massive congrats to @GetKoho and @nestomortgages for their massive raises. The future of Canadian Tech is bright.
Jun 11
Today, @GetKoho announced $130M in new capital at a $1.33B valuation.
We’re very happy to welcome Mubadala, Savano Capital, @tobi, CEO, Founder of Shopify, and Michael Linford, COO of Affirm, to the KOHO story. We’re also grateful for the continued support of Drive Capital, Portage Ventures, Eldridge, BDC Capital, and HOOPP.
One of my favourite things about KOHO is that the only way we win is if millions of Canadians choose us. We cannot out-spend or out-market. We have to out-build. The progress we have made reflects the progress our users have made.
So, while we feel very proud of what’s behind us, we’re much more humbled by what’s in front of us. With this capital, we’ve earned the right to keep building on our promise to users. That job remains monumental, and we’re very honoured that we get to do the work.
I want to thank the team for their incredible work these past few years. The world doesn’t yet know how talented, smart and kind the KOHO Collective is - but they will.
I want to thank our investors for their continued trust and support. We’re lucky to have partners who recognize and support the need to take the longer view here.
More than anything, I want to thank our users. We’ve come a long way with much farther to go. We’ll keep earning your trust every damn day.
Back to work 🔥

Canada’s most valuable companies are mostly dinosaurs. 🦖
The only company from the last 50 years on our top 10 by market cap list? @Shopify.
It begs the question: Where are Canada’s disruptors?

One in six federal dollars goes to elderly benefits, yet 400,000 seniors still live in poverty.
A crisis is looming, and we're racking up a bill we can't pay.
From @jeffcanadamson - it's time to look at reforms. buildcanada.com/memos/rebala… 📖

In Canada, a retired couple earning $182,000 a year still collects more than $18,000 from Old Age Security.
Meanwhile 400,000 seniors live in poverty.
Millennials pay 28% more in income taxes toward seniors' retirements than boomers did at the same age.
Chrétien tried to fix this in 1996.
Politics killed it.
It's time to rebalance OAS and restore generational fairness.

Old Age Security is set to nearly double over the next 20 years. It'll strain us before we see it coming.
We can fix it. We can keep OAS fair and sustainable – while still leaving room for young families to get ahead.

Last week, @globeandmail asked what every responsible citizen in a healthy democracy should ask about their elected officials:
"Are promises being fulfilled?"
From our Outcomes Tracker to our Interprovincial Trade Barriers Tracker, we're striving to help answer that question.
