A screengrab from a youtube video. Mark Carney is seen in profile with the words "FORWARD GUIDANCE WITH PRIME MINISTER MARK CARNEY" layered over.

The PM is calling his new regular updates 'Forward Guidance'. Is that supposed to be cute?

For anyone who doesn't know, that's pure central bank language. Central banks use forward guidance to provide info about monetary policy directions.

Do we really need a central bank glossary?

If you think Doug Ford using taxpayer funds to buy his private jet is unrelated to his trying to have jets fly from Toronto's Island Airport, I've got a failed private waterfront spa at Ontario Place, a shuttered Science Centre, and a tunnel under the 401 to sell you.

Polish man arrested following undercover CNN investigation into online rape networks | CNN Polish authorities have arrested a man in connection with the alleged rape of an “unknowing victim” that was recorded and shared online, the District Prosecutor’s Office in Lublin said Thursday.

It's interesting to me that a story about online rape networks doesn't seem to have broken through?

The story's inception was instigated in part by Gisèle Pelicot's rapes. Her husband drugged and and raped her and then invited dozens of other men to rape her while she was drugged.
