Art of the deal ... ?thehill.com/policy/international/526...

pure speculation on my part though.

i.e. when business goes slack you train workers up because you have time to train them and not have to deal with having to hire people in occupations facing shortages when things pick up again. plus, the same upskilling could facilitate job transitions if those workers end up losing their jobs.

Seeks like a retention plan. Because it says "for workers" rather than "to" it could be a combination of payments to employers to keep workers in jobs, tied in with upskilling support.

sounds a little like CERB + CEWS.

Not a good debate question. What self-respecting leader would say anything other than igneous?

Seems more likely that we'd be made a territory like Puerto Rico or Guam. Limited representation in Congress, no electoral college votes.

I think I'm going to just download my feed and photos and shut it down. Someone should create a National Flush Facebook Day event on fb.

Most Americans Feel Good About Their Job Security but Not Their Pay U.S. workers feel their jobs are secure and few are seeking a job change. But only half are highly satisfied with their job overall.

With the second wave of PIAAC (adult skills) survey data being released tomorrow, Creig Lamb and I put together a short primer on what it is and why thinking about it matters for Canada’s economy and society.
