Most everything he says applies equally to American Democrat elites, as well as everything going on in Canada.
I seriously doubt that China’s move to a gig economy has anything to do with too much saving and too little spending. It’s more of a response to the growing burden of mandated employee benefits, just like it is here.
His story is increasingly common in China, where tens of millions are shifting from formal employment into the gig economy as meagre unemployment insurance, record numbers of graduates and a shortage of jobs squeeze opportunities.
“The urgent priority is to make it easier for flexible workers to be included in the employee social security system,” said Nomura’s chief China economist Ting Lu, who estimates only tens of millions are fully enrolled.
“We need to reduce anxiety,” he said, “so that they save less and consume more.”
The requirement that scholars constantly publish or face academic ruin has been considered the primary engine of scientific discovery for decades. But a growing movement of universities and researchers is trying to banish the practice to the archives, saying it has perverted the pursuit of knowledge and eroded the public’s trust in science.
Reformers at top universities in Europe and the U.S., including Cambridge, Sorbonne, and UC Berkeley, say this traditional system of advancement has led to an explosion in the growth of low-quality research, with little meaningful impact on academic fields or society. It has also sparked the spread of fraudulent research, as “paper mills” churn out fake articles for sale to academics seeking to pad their CVs.
To weaken the “publish or perish” stranglehold on universities, hundreds of research institutions are reforming the incentive system that shapes academic careers. It currently rewards scholars for frequently winning grants and publishing papers, with extra points for landing in the most esteemed, high-impact journals, even when the articles are not themselves influential.

Rossner, a consultant specializing in identifying manipulated and duplicated images in journal papers – a telltale sign of deceit – has been dismayed by his findings at U.S. research centers. Scientists often have deleted the data underlying the images, making misconduct harder to prove and casting doubt on the validity of the research.
Blackstone’s QTS just announced that it is abandoning its plans to build one of the world’s largest planned AI data center developments in Virginia, after years of lawsuits, regulatory setbacks, and mounting community opposition.

In Tense Ethics Hearing, Conservatives Say Brookfield Partnered With Vancouver Condo Developer 15 Days Before Carney’s Bailout
In a contentious ethics committee, Conservative MP Aaron Gunn moved Tuesday to summon Vancouver condo marketer Bob Rennie, federal Housing Minister Gregor Robertson, and major developers connected to Rennie’s fundraiser for Mark Carney as witnesses in an urgent parliamentary investigation of the Prime Minister’s multibillion-dollar British Columbia condo bailout. A second Conservative, Gabriel Hardy, then walked the committee through a timeline that ended on the most pointed suggestion of the hearing.
Hardy asserted that Brookfield — the asset-management giant Carney chaired before entering politics — became co-owner in a deal with Concert Properties, a developer holding dozens of condo projects in the Burnaby glut zone, fifteen days before the bailout was announced.
Gunn’s motion, put to the Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics, calls for no fewer than six meetings this summer into what the governments have styled the Canada–British Columbia partnership on condo conversion — the June 18 plan to buy more than 2,200 unsold Vancouver-region condominiums with public funds.
The witness list reaches from the political architects to the industry’s commanding heights: former Vancouver mayor and now Carney housing minister Gregor Robertson; British Columbia Housing Minister Christine Boyle; Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim; Rennie, whom the motion identifies as the figure “often called Vancouver’s Condo King”; Duncan Wlodarczak, chair of the Liberal Party of Canada in British Columbia and chief of staff at Onni Group, one of the province’s largest developers; the Urban Development Institute; Concert Properties; and Brookfield Asset Management. The motion further demands that both governments produce any agreement between them on the condo program, and any agreement between either government and any developer or lender, immediately upon finalization.
As if: the Liberal majority ended debate on the motion in a five-to-four vote, shelving the probe without allowing it to be decided.

This wealthy blonde 21 year old is now cheering for the IRGC in Iran:
In the weeks since the U.S. and Israel launched their joint assault on Iran, perhaps no American has more aggressively and publicly rallied behind the Islamic Republic than Calla Walsh. From her new base in Lebanon, the 21-year-old Cambridge-raised activist has taken to social media and left-wing podcasts to incite her fellow countrymen and women to sabotage U.S. and Israeli defense contractors wherever they can find them. On March 3, she mocked four American soldiers killed in an Iranian drone strike, posting: “They all died fighting for fascism, genocide, pedophilia, and cannibalism.” She attached pictures of the dead Americans. In recent days she reposted a list of missile-production sites inside the U.S.
“We have a duty to escalate,” Walsh told her host on the Psychic Militancy podcast last Saturday from Beirut, noting that “lockdowns” of weapons factories and vandalism alone are “not sufficient at this point.”
She added: “And as the genocide and these wars of aggression continue to escalate, much more is demanded of people in the West.”
Conservative MP Resigns, Immediately Appointed As Senator
Recently Canada was selected to host what is being called a NATO bank. Its official name is Defence, Security, and Resilience Bank (DSRB) & its mission is to provide low cost loans to NATO members & allies (read Ukraine) to purchase weapons. No country has committed actual dollars to fund the bank other than Canada.
So the word on the street is that Carney gained the support of the EU based NATO members to become the host for the bank by assuring them that Canada would buy the joint Norwegian/Germany [submarine] bid. That’s $100 billion taxpayer dollars being used to gain a prestigious (in Carney’s mind) bank which inflates his status in NATO.
“My prime minister said we should not aim for perfection before launching this initiative, that we should rally the countries that are ready to be called founding members, and then the membership will stay open,” Hudon said.
The project’s fate remains uncertain without the backing of nations crucial to it securing a triple-A credit rating.
@bruce_barrett – Here’s some highlights from the parade at the Calgary Stampede in case you missed it. So Canadian. 🙄
We are governed by a secret cabal of our enemies.
Without legislative approval or a public mandate, the BC NDP government—apparently enabled by the federal government—is negotiating a secret agreement with a tiny, remote Indigenous community that aims to recognize legally unproven Aboriginal title, transfer lands, share revenue and cede unprecdented governance authority over 11 per cent of the province in one of Canada’s most mineral-rich districts, containing an estimated value of known deposits exceeding C$1 trillion.
That’s trillion with a ‘t.’
The end goal of the so-called “foundation agreement” is the recognition of Tahltan Nation rights and title over “Tahltan territory,” defined repeatedly as its entire legally unproven territorial claim spanning 96,000 square kilometres, according to public documents and other heavily redacted files obtained under a Freedom of Information request by the Public Land Use Society.
“The [foundation agreement] negotiations will be based upon recognition of Tahltan Aboriginal Title and Rights in Tahltan Territory,” reads a 2020 “shared prosperity agreement” that defines the geographic area as “the traditional territory identified by the Tahltan.”
Tahltan’s territorial claim spans an area larger than Portugal, including 70 per cent of the Golden Triangle, one of the richest mineral districts in Canada, which the BC Geological Survey estimated in 2021 to hold a total contained metal value of C$1.28 trillion. […]
The Tahltan Central Government is the administrative governing structure for the Tahltan and Iskut Indian bands representing two clans who together make up the Tahltan Nation with 636 people living on reserve and 2,444 registered members living elsewhere.
The most stubborn obstacle to securing recognition of Tahltan title may might not be having to prove it in court—both senior levels of government appear inexplicably eager to dispense with the constitutional standard of proof, as they did with Haida title. Nor have governments openly expressed any concern for the public interests or the usurping of its governance authority over Crown land. Rather, the biggest pushback may come from neighbouring Indigenous communities.

Steve Kirsch has written a detailed piece about child autism:
In over 50% of parents who noticed a rapid regression in their child’s development, vaccination within 2 days was a common factor.
But this is the type of study that no mainstream autism researcher has ever done and the autism support groups will never fund. These organizations are all united in their belief that vaccines don’t cause autism. They will never fund the research that will show they were wrong.
