Turning innovation into impact: Canada’s biotech advantage
Canada continues to struggle at turning research strength into economic growth. For a country with world-class science, this gap is more than a statistic, it’s a signal of both risk, and opportunity.
Let’s go on the offensive and score
The evidence is clear: one-size-fits-all programs no longer work. Government support must be tailored to firms’ actual needs, with measurable objectives and transparent results.
Canada must keep its promises to protect animals
The government must introduce new legislation to ban the captivity and entertainment use of elephants, great apes, and non-native big cats.
Infrastructure
Nation-building in an uncertain world: why Canada must invest in public infrastructure now
With economic uncertainty mounting and a recession looming, Canada must invest strategically to support long-term prosperity while addressing immediate challenges.
Do Canadians need new houses, or new homes?
We should embrace a broader public vision that supports families in accessing affordable homes integrated into local community infrastructure and services.
Overcoming infrastructure challenges requires better data sharing, say experts
Canada is facing an infrastructure deficit for new housing, and a funding deficit to manage the core assets already in place, says Canadian Infrastructure Council chair Jennifer Angel.
Building more homes is a shared vision. Now we need the infrastructure to make it real
Everyday infrastructure like roads, bridges, pipes, public transit, stormwater management is critical to turning housing aspirations into reality.
Nation-building starts with builders
This country urgently needs to invest in skills training, take action to scale apprenticeships, and work with us to destigmatize careers in the trades.
