Andrew Coyne 🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇪🇲🇩 (@acoyne): "My latest, on the continuing fiasco at the CPP investment fund, which has now spent more than $50 billion over twenty years to lose about $100 billion relative to what it might have earned, for an equal amount of risk, if it had just bought the relevant indexes — or flung darts at the stock listings. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-cpp-investment-board-cppib-benchmarks/" | nitter

The bloated CPP Investment Board is trounced by its own benchmarks – again

For two decades, managers have tried – and failed – to beat the markets

I like reading the #GlobeAndMail with the app that mimics newsprint paper. Today (03-12-2026) on page A4 we have a detailed story on current weapons on the same page as an ad for a tour of past war sites. I’m not sure what this says about humans and their fascination with killing each other, but it doesn’t make me optimistic. Is it humans? Or #patriarchy (as I enter hashtag I noticed that #patriot shares the first 5 letters).
The #GlobeandMail has made a breakthrough discovery about the ontological status of #HoldenCaulfield. The photograph below is the illustration in its newsletter this morning for a piece entitled “The push into non-fiction ‘pocket paperbacks’.”

Looks like the #GlobeAndMail is embracing the use of #LLMs 😞

Time to cancel my subscription, I guess. #NoAI

Can Pierre Poilievre’s conservatism win in our brave new world?

The Tories will have to reckon with an uncomfortable question: can their Leader’s movement succeed in a Canada under the shadow of Donald Trump?
