Canada inflation is still stubbornly high. Liberals plan to hike payroll taxes as well as hiking the carbon tax. The Liberals seem to think by hiking interest rates it will force prices down due to lowering demand. The problem is the Liberals have done little to address issues with the supply chain.

Canada is heading to slow economic growth including a possible recession. I call out Trudeau back in late 2019 that his policies never addressed productivity, innovation and FDI investment, skills gap, building supply chain resiliency. https://www.slideshare.net/paulyoungcga/world-and-slow-economic-growth
Trudeau foreign policies have also been a disaster. Freeland said recently that they are doing a reset on foreign policies
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-freeland-issues-a-clarion-call-from-canadas-foreign-policy-void/
Canada has been a laughingstock on the foreign policy front ever since @JustinTrudeau was elected to office. Each foreign affairs minister has been worse than the one before her/him.

Justin Trudeau is great at promising the world but not so great at delivering results. Canadians need to keep pushing their elected representatives that Canada needs a new path. The progressive agenda is a failure. It is time to bring government to center and focus on delivering program spending with value for money along focusing on economic and tax policies that will drive FDI in areas like technology, mining, energy, forestry, agriculture, manufacturing, retail, construction, etc.

Mitigation the impact of Climate Change while growing the Green and Circular ...paul young cpa, cga
Summary:
I have always been environmentalist. I am about solutions that protect the environment while growing the economy in a sustainable way.
I have also raised concerns with practices that relate to urban planning, forest management, land utilization, water management, and air quality.
I have been against carbon taxation/pricing as it punishes those that can least afford higher prices.
I am also concerns that governments around the world are not developing policies that better support the green and circular economy. The focus on policy should encourage innovation, capital investment, upgrading of skills, standardization of ESG reporting, and the streamlining of regulations. Government should not be focuses solely on handing out subsidies and direct grants to a particular business or industry. The focus should be on policies every organization would have access to as part of managing their close, consolidate, and reporting cycle.

Justin Trudeau is great at promising the world but not so great at delivering results. Canadians need to keep pushing their elected representatives that Canada needs a new path.

It is time to bring government to center and focus on delivering program spending with value for money along focusing on economic and tax policies that will drive FDI in areas like technology, mining, energy, forestry, agriculture, manufacturing, retail, construction, etc.

Mitigation the impact of Climate Change while growing the Green and Circular ...paul young cpa, cga
Summary:
I have always been environmentalist. I am about solutions that protect the environment while growing the economy in a sustainable way.
I have also raised concerns with practices that relate to urban planning, forest management, land utilization, water management, and air quality.
I have been against carbon taxation/pricing as it punishes those that can least afford higher prices.
I am also concerns that governments around the world are not developing policies that better support the green and circular economy. The focus on policy should encourage innovation, capital investment, upgrading of skills, standardization of ESG reporting, and the streamlining of regulations. Government should not be focuses solely on handing out subsidies and direct grants to a particular business or industry. The focus should be on policies every organization would have access to as part of managing their close, consolidate, and reporting cycle.

Global Housing Market Analysis and Commentary- September 2023.pptxpaul young cpa, cga
Summary:
Homebuilders are walking a fine line when it comes to new projects as high mortgage rates curb demand.
New residential construction, including single-family homes and multifamily, dropped 11.3% month over month in August to 1.283 million units on a seasonally adjusted basis, according to Census Bureau data released Tuesday. That's down 14.8% compared with a year ago and well below the 1.44 million units economists surveyed by Bloomberg projected.
But authorized residential permits — an indicator of potential future activity — rose 6.9% to 1.543 million permits in August from July. That was still down 2.7% from last August. Single-family permits, though, were up 2% from July to 949,000. Multifamily permits came in at 535,000.
The data reflects two opposing forces builders are trying to balance: the ongoing need for new construction to fill in limited inventory and elevated mortgage rates that are hurting their biggest customer right now, the first-time homebuyer.
"High mortgage rates are clearly taking a toll on builder confidence and consumer demand, as a growing number of buyers are electing to defer a home purchase until long-term rates move lower," Robert Dietz, chief economist of the National Association of Home Builders, said Monday in a press release after builder confidence dropped for the second straight month.

Blog – Manufacturing Shipments and Orders – The United States – August 2023
Summary:
New orders for manufacturing technology in the United States totaled $353.9 million in July 2023, as per the latest report by AMT – The Association For Manufacturing Technology. This figure marked a 12.4% decline from June 2023 but remained only 10.5% lower than July 2022. Year-to-date orders amounted to $2.83 billion, reflecting a 12.7% decrease compared to the same period the previous year.
Douglas K. Woods, President of AMT, noted that July is typically a slower month for manufacturing technology orders, so a slight drop was expected. However, he pointed out a notable trend: over the last two months, the year-to-date order gap has narrowed during historically slow periods. While job shops have seen decreased orders, other industries that benefited from reshoring or government investments have helped fill the gap.
Among specific sectors, job shops, the largest customer segment, placed their lowest total monthly orders since August 2020. In contrast, metal valve manufacturers recorded their third-highest monthly order value on record, last seen in September 2018, making up nearly 5% of the total manufacturing technology order value for July 2023. Manufacturers of motor vehicle transmissions continued to order machinery at an elevated pace. However, the aerospace industry continued to order below its early 2022 peaks, with hopes that recent projects like the federal government's $1.5 billion investment in communications satellites might reverse this trend.

Blog – Analysis and Commentary – Stock Market – WE September 15 2023
Summary:
Stocks fell Friday as investors wrap up a volatile week ahead of the Federal Reserve's policy meeting.
The Dow Jones Industrials tumbled 288.87 points to close out Friday and the week at 34,618.24. At its lows, it completely wiped out Thursday's 332-point rally.
The S&P 500 index sank 54.78 points, or 1.2%, to 4,450.32.
The NASDAQ index plunged 217.72 points, or 1.6%, to 13,708.33.
The Dow held onto a winning week. The S&P 500 and NASDAQ both closed out the week with losses.
Information technology was the worst-performing sector in the S&P 500, down nearly 2%. Adobe shares fell more than 4% even after the software firm posted better-than-expected quarterly results. Shares of Arm Holdings were lower one day after its successful public debut.
Auto stocks General Motors and Stellantis N.V. were higher Friday, while Ford Motor was about flat. Thousands of members of the United Auto Workers went on strike after failing to reach a deal with the automakers Thursday night.
Elsewhere, Lennar shares slid 3%. The home construction firm posted third-quarter results that beat on the top and bottom lines.
On the economic front, the University of Michigan's consumer sentiment survey showed one-year inflation expectations dropped to 3.1% in
September, tied for the lowest since January 2021. Also, the five-year outlook fell to 2.7%, matching its lowest since December 2020.
Electricity Analysis - Canada and the OECD - June 2023.pptxpaul young cpa, cga
Summary:
Over three-quarters of the world’s total coal-generated electricity is consumed in just three countries. China is the top user of coal, making up 53.3% of global coal demand, followed by India at 13.6%, and the U.S. at 8.9%.
Burning coal—for electricity, as well as metallurgy and cement production—is the world’s single largest source of CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, its use in electricity generation has actually grown 91.2% since 1997, the year when the first global climate agreement was signed in Kyoto, Japan.
However, even as non-renewables enjoy their time in the sun, their days could be numbered.
In 2022, renewables, such as wind, solar, and geothermal, represented 14.4% of total electricity generation with an extraordinary annual growth rate of 14.7%, driven by big gains in solar and wind. Non-renewables, by contrast, only managed an anemic 0.4%.
The authors of the Statistical Review do not include hydroelectric in their renewable calculations, even though many others, including the International Energy Agency, consider it a “well-established renewable power technology.”
With hydroelectric moved into the renewable column, together they accounted for over 29.3% of all electricity generated in 2022, with an annual growth rate of 7.4%.

Global (Mining Oil and Gas Forestry and Agriculture) Analysis and Commentary ...paul young cpa, cga
The mining, oil, gas, agriculture, forestry, and mining continue to face environmental, social, and governance policy review including reporting of key metrics as part of ESG reporting cycle.
There is more focus on profitability and investment returns as part of the integrated planning and reporting cycle.
Summary:
The global economy faces what at least one forecaster is calling a mild trade recession as shipments from China slump and German factories downshift.
China’s export declines extended into August, though there were signs that the worst of a world trade slowdown may be over for the leading exporter.
Overseas shipments from China fell 8.8% in dollar terms from a year earlier while imports contracted 7.3%, both better than economists’ estimates and significantly less severe than July’s downturn.
Other data have suggested trade may be stabilizing after weakening for most of this year. Exports from South Korea also declined at a more moderate pace in August than the previous month.

LI continues to be a strategic product for govts around the world - https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/american-
lithium-says-us-funding-will-shore-up-nascent-industry-1.1872020. There are concerns around the
extraction and refinement of lLI on the overall environment including the water table -

@karinagould are you going to have
this info about your miss mgmt. of the
passport office that result in no
compensation to travellers in your next
newsletter?
Another example how accountability
never matters to @JustinTrudeau & his
team

47. HAMILTON FRINGE MINORITY
The role of any government including the Prime Minister
is to listen to everyone. True leaders put politics aside
and listen to everyone.

49. HUSSEN / PROCUREMENT
Are you really surprised? This is the pattern
for over 7 years that is denied and then say we
do mistake because we have such a
progressive agenda to implement.
@JustinTrudeau and his team will never own
anything!

50. MONTHLY BUDGET DEFICIT / NOVEMBER
2022
Summary:
More needs to be done to safeguard
assets as part of enforcing a tougher
public sector governance model. More
use of data and AI can help with risk
mitigation and strengthen emergency
and other reporting for all levels of
government.

55. NATURAL GAS LOSS OPPORTUNITY
• Canada is losing between $6B to $10B of taxes due to lack of capacity to export LNG
• Canada environmental ranking is also better than Qatar, Australia, and the United States -

56. TRADE /
DECEMBER
2022
@JonathanWNV @s_guilbeault
You can thank the Energy Sector for part of the reason that
Canada ran a large trade surplus. This is the same sector that
you want to shut down!`

CLIMATE
CHANGE
https://twitter.com/JonathanWNV/status/1622605174194814976
The reality is that CAN is a carbon sink! All you have done is make lives
more expensive. CAN is importing emissions from larger polluters like
CN & you say nothing, why? You also never mentioned the toxicity of LI
mining practices on the environment.

58. INFLATION AND
GOVERNMENT
PROGRAMS
None of these measures deal with systemic issues facing
inflation! All you did was throw money at the symptoms!

• It seems that Australia is reaping the benefits of
LNG exports. It seems your government continues to
lose out of $5B to $10B due to your lack of focus on the
energy sector!

63. OIL AND GAS (EMERGING MARKETS)
@JonathanWNV @s_guilbeault @McTeaguePeter
It seems other countries are truly benefiting from LNG and oil demand but not Canada due to your
policies!

64. INNOVATION AGENCY
https://www.canhealth.com/2023/02/22/ottawa-creates-new-2-6-billion-innovation-agency/
Another level of govt to dole out more money that will do little to address systemic issues brought on by
@JustinTrudeau excessive taxation & overregulating of the economy.

Seriously? How about you look at emissions per KM2? Canada
has small population and a cold country!
