☀ High 19CGood morning!Last week, Toronto was still in the fringes of winter. It snowed while I was there—not much, but enough to make me wish I had remembered to get my scarf from the hotel room. Meanwhile, here in the Fraser Valley, my garden is awash in flowers. The peas are popping up, and the spinach is beginning to sprout. The only snow I’ve seen on this coast are the white petals floating down from the blossom trees surrounding my backyard.

☀ High 19CGood morning!The hide-a-bed couch is the hardest piece of furniture to move. There is no question. If you disagree, you have never had to move a true hide-a-bed. My wife bought one such devil’s couch over the weekend. The things seem like a great idea until the moment you try to pick it up. The thing looks like a normal couch. You think it’s going to be awkward like a normal couch. Then you feel its weight and want to just set fire to the thing on the spot.

The US economy being in trouble will hurt Canada. As will tariffs on Canada. But there's a valuable comparative advantage to having an economy run by sane people. You can imagine a world where investment in Canada increases by dint of it not being the US. https://t.co/Jw7wOmZMsI
