Global Affairs Canada appears to have been given a minor role in the big questions of foreign policy. Since the Trudeau government was elected in November 2015—less than six years ago—we have had four ministers at Global Affairs, and none have spent even two full years in the portfolio, making the department something of a revolving door. Stéphane Dion, left, was the first, followed by Chrystia Freeland, then Francois-Philippe Champagne and, most recently, Marc Garneau. The Hill Times photographs by Andrew Meade and Jake Wright

Improving productivity performance even by slight amounts can bring big benefits. Raising the rate of productivity growth by just 0.1 percentage point a year over the next decade, from 1.5 per cent to 1.6 per cent, would boost output by $23-billion in 2030, and accumulate output by $121-billion over the decade, writes David Crane.
