Ottawa’s major project regulation discussion paper suggests the creation of a “simpler, more coordinated process in Canada.” The intent is well-meaning, say George Vegh and Kate Koplovich, who have further recommendations. cdhowe.org/publication/the-b…

There was much chatter last week about the advent of a “technical recession” after StatsCan reported a second quarter of (slight) negative GDP growth. Not so fast, say Steve Ambler and new C.D. Howe CEO Jeremy Kronick. Read their explanation: cdhowe.org/publication/dont-…

A privilege to celebrate Bill Robson's remarkable career as he retired from @CDHoweInstitute after 38 years of service. Bill's thoughtful counsel, intellectual rigor, and unwavering commitment to independent, evidence-based public policy have made Canada stronger and helped inform better public policy decisions. Thank you, Bill. @CDHoweInstitute @PBethlenfalvy @AmandaLang @UofT @uoftgro

He literally just admitted that it was immigration and public spending that was artificially supporting the economy. While on investment, the PM is dead wrong for at least two reasons, pointed out by @CDHoweInstitute in March:
(1) "Nearly half of last year’s inflow came through mergers and acquisitions of existing Canadian businesses, well above the historical norm of around one-third. That’s not new capital creation." - CD Howe
(2) "In total, non-residential business investment per worker is nearly a quarter below its 2014 peak. Over the past decade, investment in new capital has lagged the rate at which existing capital wears out and goes obsolete. That means our capital stock per worker is actually declining" - CD Howe
"This government's been in the process of laying the foundations for a stronger, more resilient, more independent Canadian economy—that process is settling in," says PM Mark Carney, commenting on the economy amid concerns that Canada has entered a technical recession.

It's not Roman Baber, or the CBC who calls recessions. Business cycle councils do - like the one at @CDHoweInstitute

It's not a "technical" recession.
It's a recession.
A @MarkJCarney recession.
Stop lying @CBCNews @CTVNews.
