A $100M fund is helping Indigenous communities buy local businesses across Canada. Corner stores, auto shops, restaurants and more that already employ people. This is economic development that really works. Skip the unicorn startups & focus on proven businesses with real cash flow.

Who won't delivery apps screw in the pursuit of profit? Drivers, restaurants & customers all deal with the fallout of exploitative wages, unclear fees, and drip pricing. Competition fairness rockstar @keldonb.bsky.social explains in this piece. @jennabench.bsky.social | www.cbc.ca/news/busines...

Great article in @thestar.com about Toronto's need for small retail. With businesses facing a skyrocketing rents, downsizing may be the only option to keep running. But only if the space exists. I'm hopeful that @jasonthorne.bsky.social's team can push for right-sized retail spaces.

Here's something most people don't know about me: I LOVE Veruca Salt. And Wet Leg's newest single, CPR, is pretty much VC's sleazier grime-pop cousin. Damned good stuff from a band that just keeps hitting it outta the park. youtu.be/HeL2M8jBEI4?...

The return of Ontario's Northlander train is approaching and they've got some fancy new cars! I took this passenger car on the Ottawa-Toronto corridor and absolutely loved the journey - a notable upgrade from older VIA trains. Nerd out on the details: youtu.be/ru8a5QSpPdw?...

This is such a wild story. Well worth the 5 minute read - if for nothing more than to learn about a place you've (probably) never heard about before. @derechadiario.bsky.social | derechadiario.com.ar/us/argentina...

"Alberta’s oligarchs aren’t speaking for the province, they are speaking for themselves." The oil-rich province has the highest GDP per worker in Canada - but average Albertans aren’t getting their share. It's being hoarded by dragons. @jimstanford.bsky.social | www.thestar.com/business/opi...

Yeah, it’s the rent. Retail rent in Toronto has jumped 130% in five years. That’s what’s pushing local businesses out - not wage increases. Businesses need: Transparent leases | Predictable terms | Dispute resolution If you love local - sign and support: commercialrentrights.ca

My favourite part of real estate listings is ATTENTION BUILDERS, INVESTORS & VISIONARIES As though this isn't just a small detached house in Hamilton, Ontario with 1950s pink bathroom tile. I don't need a TED talk for this house - but I wouldn't pass up a little generational wealth 👀.

MEC is back in Canadian hands. It's not quite a co-op but the new ownership group has a "vision of reshoring some manufacturing to Canada." Personally praying for the return of a co-op model down the road. @cbcnews.ca | www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Boring businesses deserve hype. We hear a lot about flashy startups - but it’s the laundromats, HVAC firms, and local service shops that quietly build jobs, wealth, and resilient neighbourhoods. Stoked to see them getting their due. @theglobeandmail.com | www.theglobeandmail.com/investing/pe...

Wondering where to buy a Canadian flag that's actually made in Canada? I did too and found Canadiana Flag based in Toronto & Coquitlam. Now the real question: Who wins - 100 tiny flags or 1 giant flag? canadianaflag.ca/collections/...

My business does better when my team isn’t burned out, broke, or sick. It’s good business to: - Pay people properly - Give them PAID time to recover - Provide predictable schedules Do this & watch turnover drop while performance rises. We’ve been doing it for years & it works!

The greatest gift you can give any writer is to like what was also their favourite line, so thank you! I deleted it once and thought “too far?” but then decided it was an entirely defensible snapshot of the Trump entourage.

Calling it now: This cargo ship elevator in China is going to be a perfectly over-the-top chase scene location in a future James Bond film. OR HQ for a rag-tag band of post-apocalyptic survivors trying to figure out if there's anyone else alive on the planet.

The riffs in Stare at the Void by Superheaven are just as chunky as the clay animation. This heavy summer anthem is perfect for cool dad lawn-mowing struts & rake handle guitar solos. This is 90's grunge that graduated, got therapy, and came back with newfound confidence. youtu.be/siDhacKVxdE?...

Toronto's hiring a Night Economy Manager - maybe we'll shake off "Toronto the Good" and become "Toronto the Kinda Fun"? European cities & even Ottawa have had night mayors for years. We're a little late to the party but we're showing up. 1/3 @torontotoday.ca | www.torontotoday.ca/local/arts-c...

Good news from Missouri! I own two businesses where higher wages + paid sick days create deep value in our workforce. It turns out when people are paid enough to eat and protected from getting sick - they perform better & quit less often. Any business group against worker benefits is kinda dumb.

In a note of good news for Pierre Poilievre - he really doesn't have to worry about security clearance anymore.
