Beautiful day in perspective, warm, slight breeze, blue skies: everything there is
to like about summer. So let's talk about wind, in particular strong winds, very strong
winds. Because we have just experienced that on Wednesday afternoon.
At point, I was waiting for a pedestrian light to come on and give me permission to cross
a busy motorway. There came a gust of wind like Ihave never experienced before, my
clothes were flapping against me like a flag, I had to bend my knees to stay in place. Had it
continued a moment longer I would have been thrown to the ground and dragged away.
So yes, the wind is getting stronger. And Polytechnique Zurich has published explaining the
phenomenon...

So trade agreements between Canada and the US have historically been the work
of conservative governments on both sides... and they happen because the focus is
on something that both sides want: integrating the auto industry being a case in point.
Let's try to revisit that model: is there some form of integration that would advance
both countries at this time. My guess is that there is, and it has to do with the emerging AI
movement. Canada has already conceded on the issue by repealing a bid to tax bigtech in
Canada. What do we want on that front that would simplify life for everybody for the
next twenty years??
