Canada’s economy has shown resilience in 2025—but confidence is fragile. @ifsd.ca President and CEO Kevin Page and Executive VP @sahirkhan.bsky.social unpack what the Fiscal Update said about growth, deficits, and why transparency and delivery will matter as Canada moves from plans to results.

Congratulations to Annette Ryan on her appointment as Canada's new Parliamentary Budget Officer. Last month, former PBO Kevin Page and former Asst PBOs @sahirkhan.bsky.social and Mostafa Askari spoke about the challenges facing Ms. Ryan as she takes up the position at such a pivotal moment.

“Europeans and Canadians have always loved each other. But we never felt that we needed each other.” That has changed. As we see with PM Carney back Europe. The latest Politics of Money podcast has Stéphane Dion with Kevin Page, talking external sovereignty pressures and internal unity threats.

Before 2008, MPs and the public were severely limited in access to public finance info. Then the Parliamentary Budget Office was created. Kevin Page's founding PBO team talk building the Office, Annette Ryan's nomination, and why its needed now. 🎧Full podcast: ifsd-thepoliticsofmoney.transistor.fm

Ukraine: Russian fascists struck an ambulance in liberated Kherson with an FPV drone. This is not an "accident," just like the Russian drone strike on the apartment building that injured 2 civilians in Romania was not an "accident." Russians commit war crimes daily.

Good news: We voted down Congresswoman Mace’s amendment to let fears of alleged “woke bias” undermine years of standardized, merit-based admissions. If we care about fairness & maintaining rigorous admissions standards, we should rely on assessments that are thoroughly validated and widely accepted.
