Canada currently ranks 12th in the world for data-centre capacity. Announcements like yesterday’s from the federal government and Telus that bring us on track to become a leading market are important. However, the truth is that we’ve allowed ourselves to fall deeply behind, as evidenced by what we’ve built vs what we’re planning. Read more about how we can build up Canada’s digital sovereignty by checking out John Ruffolo’s memo at buildcanada.com/memos/digital-sovereignty 📖 #canada #cdnpoli #nationbuilding #datacentres #canadianai

The activation of Bruce C would add 4800MW to the Bruce Nuclear Generating Station’s operating capacity. ⚡ By the end of the decade, Canada could be home to the largest nuclear plant in the world. We can build big things in Canada. 🍁 #canada #cdnpoli #nationbuilding #nuclear #nuclearpower

Canada Post’s financial troubles have been well publicized for a while now. 🇨🇦📬 In 2025, they recorded a record-breaking pre-tax loss of $1.57 billion. But it wasn’t always this way. In fact, only 10 years ago, Canada Post was profitable. 🤑 Canada Post was built to survive on its own income, but competition from private sector parcel services have slashed their marketshare and union disputes pop up again and again. Is it time to accept a new reality of Canada Post as a federally-subsidized service or is it time to make some major changes at the post office? 🤔 Let us know what you think 👇 #canada #cdnpoli #nationbuilding #canadapost #canada🇨🇦

Canada has sat on a world-class compound semiconductor fab for 20 years while global demand for photonics exploded. 🧑‍💻 Today, Industry Minister Mélanie Joly announced plans to spin out the NRC’s Canadian Photonics Fabrication Centre (CPFC). Originally built in 2005, it’s North America’s only end-to-end compound semiconductor facility. This move will turn it into a commercial entity to attract private investment and scale its operations. Commercializing the CPFC is the right move. Private capital and Canadian control is how you turn an underused strategic asset into the beating heart of a national semiconductor engine. It’s also step 1 of the plan laid out by @cohere_ai cofounder Ivan Zhang in his Build Canada memo “Seize Canada’s Semiconductor Opportunity” back in November. 🇨🇦 Check it out at buildcanada.com/memos 🏗️🇨🇦 #canada #cdnpoli #nationbuilding #cohere #chipshortage

More of this. In more industries. At a national scale. Every year. 🍁 Recruitment is step one. Step two is making sure their discoveries become Canadian companies - not just patents that get assigned abroad the moment they’re filed. Congratulations to the @uhn.foundation /@uhn_research team! 🇨🇦❤️ #canada #cdnpoli #nationbuilding #canadianhealthcare #medicalresearch

It’s a welcome step. There’s much more to do. 🍁 Canada has the talent to build a world-class defence industry. Let’s keep the momentum going. Read “Build Canada’s Defence Industry” from Eliot Pence at buildcanada.com/memos/ #canada #cdnpoli #canadianarmedforces #nato #canadianarmy
