JAM is a pretty disgusting comparison yikes
Rachel Gilmore: PM Carney’s decision to invoke John A. Macdonald and his rail project, framing him as one who “raced to unite this land,” was revealing — particularly given who paid the price for this unification.

Mark Carney says his glitzy investment summit will attract major capital to Canada.

But as Nikolas Barry-Shaw & Martin Lukacs write, what Carney may be putting on the table is Canada itself—and a fire-sale of the country’s essential public infrastructure.
