Healthcare is a key area for many countries
Canada spends roughly 10% of GDP on healthcare or about $200B. Approximately 20% comes from the federal government through the HST
The largest expenditures for provinces is healthcare. Ontario for example spends around $55B or about 40% of their budget on healthcare
There is lots of waste within healthcare as many provinces have not done a very good job when it comes to value for money/healthcare
The delivery model is broken!

POV - Digital Health Opportunities within a Biden PresidencyPaul Simon Arakkal
The 2020 U.S Presidential Election is over. President Elect Joe Biden can now embark on his Healthcare Agenda. The U.S House will be controlled by the same party as the President Elect. However, control of the U.S Senate hangs in the balance and will be determined by the results of the two runoff elections in the U.S State of Georgia on January 5th, 2021. However, the U.S President, as the Chief Executive of the U.S Federal Government, has significant discretionary powers to drive U.S Healthcare Policy. What impact will his policies have on U.S Healthcare Businesses? What opportunities abound for Digital Health?

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.

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.

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.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.
If you are looking for a pi coin investor. Then look no further because I have the right one he is a pi vendor (he buy and resell to whales in China). I met him on a crypto conference and ever since I and my friends have sold more than 10k pi coins to him And he bought all and still want more.

2. User Adoption: Pi's success will be closely tied to user adoption. The more users who join the network and actively participate, the stronger the ecosystem can become.
3. Utility and Use Cases: For a cryptocurrency to thrive, it must offer utility and practical use cases. The Pi team has talked about various applications, including peer-to-peer transactions, smart contracts, and more. The development and implementation of these features will be essential.
4. Regulatory Environment: The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies is evolving globally. How Pi navigates and complies with regulations in various jurisdictions will significantly impact its future.
5. Technology Development: The Pi network must continue to develop and improve its technology, security, and scalability to compete with established cryptocurrencies.
6. Community Engagement: The Pi community plays a critical role in its future. Engaged users can help build trust and grow the network.
7. Monetization and Sustainability: The Pi team's monetization strategy, such as fees, partnerships, or other revenue sources, will affect its long-term sustainability.
It's essential to approach Pi or any new cryptocurrency with caution and conduct due diligence. Cryptocurrency investments involve risks, and potential rewards can be uncertain. The success and future of Pi will depend on the collective efforts of its team, community, and the broader cryptocurrency market dynamics. It's advisable to stay updated on Pi's development and follow any updates from the official Pi Network website or announcements from the team.

3. OVERVIEW
• Healthcare is a key area for many countries
• Canada spends roughly 10% of GDP on
healthcare or about $200B. Approximately
20% comes from the federal government
through the HST
• The largest expenditures for provinces is
healthcare. Ontario for example spends
around $55B or about 40% of their budget on
healthcare
• There is lots of waste within healthcare as
many provinces have not done a very good job
when it comes to value for money/healthcare
• The delivery model is broken!

5. SUMMARY
• This presentation will look at funding of
healthcare along with the issues facing the
delivery of healthcare dollars by the provinces
and territories as part of improving patient
care.
6. PROVINCI
AL
POWERS
• The administration and delivery of health care services is
the responsibility of each province or territory, guided by
the provisions of the Canada Health Act. The provinces
and territories fund these services with assistance from
the federal government in the form of fiscal transfers.
• Health care services include insured primary health care
(such as the services of physicians and other health
professionals) and care in hospitals, which account for
the majority of provincial and territorial health
expenditures.
• The provinces and territories also provide some groups
with supplementary health benefits not covered by the
Act, such as prescription drug coverage. The level and
scope of coverage for supplementary benefits varies
between jurisdictions.

systeme-sante/cards-cartes-eng.php
7. FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FUNDING
• he Canada Health Transfer, or CHT, is the largest major transfer to provinces and territories. It provides long-term
predictable funding for health care, and supports the principles of the Canada Health Act which are: universality;
comprehensiveness; portability; accessibility; and, public administration.
• CHT transfer payments are made on an equal per capita basis, and include both cash and tax point transfers. Starting in
2014-15, provincial and territorial CHT transfers will be allocated on an equal per capita cash basis only.
• As announced in December 2011, total CHT cash levels are set in legislation to grow at 6 per cent until 2016-17. Starting
in 2017-18, total CHT cash will grow in line with a three-year moving average of nominal Gross Domestic Product, with
funding guaranteed to increase by at least 3 per cent per year.
• The move to an equal capita cash allocation is part of a long-term plan announced by the Government in Budget 2007 to
provide comparable treatment for all Canadians, regardless of where they live. The Government will ensure that the
transition is fiscally responsible by implementing a by-province and territory protection that will ensure that no province
or territory will receive less than its 2013-14 CHT cash allocation in future years as a result of the move to equal per
capita cash.

8. HEALTHCARE RANKING
https://globalnews.ca/news/3599458/canadas-health-care-system-lower-
performing-compared-to-its-peers-study/
• The document makes it clear Canadians
are not getting value for money, spending
the equivalent of 10 per cent of our GDP
on health care in 2014. Meanwhile, many
higher-ranked countries spent less and
still managed to come out on top.
• It’s certainly not all bad news, However.
Canada performed quite well on many
metrics. The country has some of the
lowest mortality rates for patients who end
up in hospital following a heart attack, for
example, and survival rates for certain
types of cancer are also comparatively
high. Unlike their peers abroad, Canadian
doctors were unlikely to say that they
wasted too much time on administrative
tasks.

13. DRUMMOND REPORT - HEALTHCARE
Source - http://www.carp.ca/2012/02/24/drummond-report-to-province-cut-costs-
improve-healthcare-2/
Coordinating services and integrating all health and patient care services for better access and
more efficient use of resources.
Supporting a shift towards ensuring a continuum of care and care that is community-based.
Funding for community-based care may need to grow at a higher rate in the short to medium
term in order to build capacity to take pressure off acute care facilities; shifting away from a
hospital focus would lead to slower growth in hospital costs.
* Placing more emphasis on chronic than acute care. Chronic issues should be handled in the
home and community to the fullest extent possible.
*Reducing the number of future long-term care facilities and instead, emphasize home- and
community based care.
* Introducing system navigators to help patients navigate through the healthcare system.
CARP has long advocated for changes that would not only enhance access, quality, and delivery of
current healthcare services, but contain costs in the process. We will continue to promote
innovative changes that will help to maximize quality of care and better health outcomes while
reducing costs borne by governments.Where was Horwath on Healthcare Report by Drummond?
14. NDP AND HEALTHCARE
• http://www.thestar.com/news/federal-election/2015/09/14/ndp-prescribes-500m-for-health-care-system.html
• NDP needs to take a deep look at the issues driving the cuts and stop throwing money at the symptoms. NDP seems
to think the whole issue is money when there are issues with delivery including bloated levels of administration. I
cannot believe people buy the comments from the NDP as they do nothing but throw money at the symptoms and
that never fixes the root causes to a policy

funding them nothing will be done for healthcare
• Access to family physician or specialist
• Wait Times – Reduction
• Access to homecare spaces
• CEO salaries/Compensation
• Other productivity/efficiency improvements

16. ONTARIO HEALTHCARE FORCED CUTS
• Quote “The Ontario Nurses' Association is sounding the alarm about layoffs of Registered
Nurses by cash-strapped hospitals, and warns patients will pay the price.
• The union, which represents 60,000 registered nurses, says there were 770 RN positions cut
across Ontario last year, and hospitals in Windsor and Kitchener have already announced
more RN layoffs this month.
• The hospitals decided to "risk the health outcomes of patients by cutting RNs to balance the
budget," said ONA president Linda Haslam-Stroud.”

17. GOVERNMENT WASTE
• Harris spent more government % on healthcare than Wynne/McGuinty. Harris was slowly putting money
back into healthcare due to new health accord. Harris was not adding management, but front line
workers.

18. HEALTHCARE / HARRIS
• https://www.fraserinstitute.org/article/radical-
plans-harris-and-klein - What about the so-
called gutting of social services and healthcare?
Well, Premier Harris, between the year he was
elected and last year, increased real healthcare
spending by 25.4 percent and reduced social
services spending by 9.6 percent. However, the
decrease in social services spending had more
to do with the fact that the percentage of the
Ontario population on welfare declined by 43.9
percent during Premier Harris’reign.
