My company - we do First Nations data - crunched the numbers on gender and band governance. One big takeaway, all female band governments do more than 50% better than all male band governments. Details here: www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...
Bar chart titled "All-women councils raise the highest own-source share," showing median own-source revenue as a share of total revenue by council composition across 638 First Nations. All-women councils (22 nations) are highest at 31.3%, mixed councils (466 nations) sit at 21.1%, and all-men councils (38 nations) are lowest at 19.9%.

Elizabeth May spoke at FCM today and got a standing ovation. No other federal elected leader got that. I wondered why… The people I spoke to there had seen her speak before. They all greatly appreciated that she spoke without notes, but with heart and humour.

It mightn't look like much. But this little red dot is a supermassive black hole about 50 million times more massive than the Sun, its light dating to just 700 million years after the Big Bang—when the Universe was just 5% its current age. It is insane to me that we can see this far back.
A little red dot in the centre of the scene. Some (much) less distance galaxies, as small blotches of light, are also visible.

There are many things I’m very proud of as a Canadian. MANY things. But every time I watch another media story about another ambitious push in renewable energy from China, I’m embarrassed that Canada isn’t aggressively working to quickly become a true global powerhouse in renewable energy.
