Co-author of the study, British professor Nick Bloom from Stanford University, said the UK was growing fast in the years before Brexit and could have at least partially kept up with the US without the disruption. He argued the Bank of England company data offered important corroboration.

Democracy Watch is arguing that the govt's actions breach the right of voters to be informed for a meaningful debate about public issues. This also gives the story a new news hook; it gets the FOI issue in front of the public again. This doesn't help Ford & his govt's approval numbers. #OnPoli
“The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled in a few different cases that voters have a right to disclosure of government information that voters need to have meaningful debate about public issues, including the conduct of government officials, politicians and government institutions,” co-founder Duff Conacher told Global News.

“So, that’s the main basis of the court case.”

Save Standard Time @savestandard.bsky.social · 25/04/2026
Alberta: Permanent DST would put sunrise in Fort McMurray past 8am for 4⅔ months, past 9am for 3 months, as late as 10:03am! It’s a mandate to wake an hour early all winter. Tell your MLAs to prevent this by amending Bill 31 to permanent MST!
Screenshot of Save Standard Time’s interactive sunrise chart, linked above. It calculates and displays times of sunrises and sunsets on every day of the year for a choice of 1,000 North American cities, and it tallies how many days sunrise comes after a chosen time, under permanent Standard Time, biannual clock change, and permanent Daylight Saving Time.

Saskatchewan picked the incorrect time zone to stay in. Alberta is joining them in UTC-6 permanently. It’s very strange to stay in permanent daylight time. Very dark mornings in winter. So what does Saskatchewan want to do now? It should be in UTC-7 based on Geography and the position of the sun.

There is DST and ST but we need to understand time zones, geography and where the sun is. Canada is very big. Saskatchewan should be at UTC-7 but chose UTC-6. Now Alberta is also choosing UTC-6 permanently. BC chose UTC-7 year round, should be UTC-8. Jet lag will be permanent. #realTimezone #Cndpoli
