A mentor to many and one of the best human beings I know/knew. RIP.
Deeply saddened by the death of my former Deputy Minister, former Clerk of the Privy Council, Senator Ian Shugart. Ian was the consummate public servant. A brilliant and thoughtful man who leaves a huge legacy. He was also a friend, & a man of deep faith. Requiescat in pace

Worth breaking my silence on #housing to celebrate the latest book from the brilliant @just_shelter … lifts the veil on how complicit we all are in benefiting from others’ poverty, including via housing wealth creation.
I’m floor and honored by this remarkably rich and smart review of “Poverty, by America” by Margaret Talbot in the @NewYorker. The review covers so much ground so effectively—and builds on the book in useful and nuanced ways. https://t.co/3W9s8ZUnqA

Financial literacy can protect us from ignorance, greed & opportunism, says @ewsiddall We should make sure this financial education comes from trusted sources who don’t have conflicts of interest such as products to sell or commissions to earn.
