As @MarkJCarney says, we can give ourselves more than any foreign government can take away -- if we work hard together to build One Canadian Economy together. That will create more good jobs, and funds the the social safety net we rely on. That work is more important than ever.

This is part of our commitment to a two-state solution — an independent, viable and sovereign Palestinian state living side by side with the State of Israel in peace and security. For important context to today's announcement, see

Canada will recognize the State of Palestine. "The deepening suffering of civilians leaves no room for delay in co-ordinated international action to support peace, security, and the dignity of all human life." An historic, necessary announcement -- with much work still to do.

The war in Gaza must end now. See below for the strong statement our government put out with 25 other partners. And for my perspective and what I'm doing, see my new post here:

Because in this time of economic challenge, where the rules are being re-made, we need to be quick and decisive. And remember that we're all in this, together.

Canadian steel is under attack from US tariffs, while cheap steel from other countries is being dumped here. Steel companies/workers in Hamilton, Sault Ste. Marie support jobs across Canada & Taiaiako'n-Parkdale-High Park. So I'm very happy w/ these moves to defend Canadian steel.

Very proud of this announcement by @melaniejoly and Marjorie Michel supporting our leading researchers and research projects -- investing in the next frontier of problem-solving, in so many fields where Canadians lead
