A reason why provinces should think twice about separation: Canada's CPP pension fund ranks 6th in the world in size and 2nd in the world in performance. This does more than ensure retirement benefits. The fund also serves as an important lever in increasing investor confidence in Canada's govt.

Will the documentary that #ElonMusk doesn’t want you to see (rolling out in theatres starting today) be available on streaming? It’s allegedly eventually streaming on HBO Max (Crave in Canada). But will it? ‘MUSK’ has no streaming date so far. It was a battle to get a theatrical release.
