Former premiers Jason Kenney and Rachel Notley have joined forces to urge Albertans to vote to remain in Canada. (Craig Ryan/CBC News)Ex-political rivals Rachel Notley and Jason Kenney made their pitch to have Alberta stay part of Canada in a hushed room filled with dozens of members of Edmonton's business community. After years of political sparring, the former Alberta premiers are now working together as co-chairs of a campaign called Alberta and Canada: Stronger Together and spoke at a forum hosted by the Edmonton Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday.

The path of the full yield curve can be as important as the BoC’s next policy move for the real Canadian economy. The overnight rate (set by the BoC) matters for variable-rate mortgages and consumer credit. But, rising term yields are already reshaping fixed-rate borrowing for most households, businesses and governments in Canada, raising debt servicing costs.

Outlooks for Canada and the United States are little changed from September despite moderately weaker labour data. The Federal Reserve is still expected to hike by 75 basis points in total (including the hike in September), but at a slower pace than previously forecast.

Open this photo in gallery:People walk past a Canadian Flag on Wellington Street in Ottawa, in June. Canada's population increased by 0.5 per cent over the past year as of July. Keito Newman/The Globe and MailAtakan Bakiskan is a doctoral student in economics at the University of Toronto. Just when we thought Canada’s population was falling by 0.5 per cent over the past year as of July – it turned out to be the other way around: it grew by that amount, as the improved counting of non-permanent residents revealed. The latest upward revisions to population estimates by Statistics Canada are substantial enough to change the picture of our economy: The tiny bit of positivity we have had recently in our numbers may prove greatly exaggerated. The revisions revealed that it was not productivity growth that was doing all the heavy lifting in economic growth lately. It was also population growth – more people were coming into the country and so aggregate incomes were rising as a result. In fact, with the recent adjustment to population estimates, year-over-year growth in GDP per capita in the second quarter looks to be less than 1 per cent, – just half of the 2 per cent we initially thought

The U. S. suspect charged in connection with the deadly shooting in Tumbler Ridge earlier this year will remain behind bars. James Cody Bryant appeared in a Seattle courtroom wearing an olive green button-up shirt, black-rimmed glasses and long waist-length hair parted to the side. Bryant appeared to be sniffling and crying at the beginning of the hearing. Approximately eight people sat on the defendant’s side of the courtroom, while about a dozen sat on the opposing side. Bryant had begun transitioning to a female before the shootings, according to authorities. Bryant is accused of helping the shooter in Tumbler Ridge, 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootselaar, start their car after they had already killed their mother and step-brother, so that Van Rootselaar could drive to Tumbler Ridge School and carry out the mass shooting.

Open this photo in gallery:A woman walks near a polling station as advance voting for the Alberta referendum gets underway in Calgary, Tuesday. Todd Korol/ReutersCanada is often described as a divided country, and of course it is. No country as large and diverse as ours, built on two official languages, 10 provinces, several dozen Crown-Indigenous treaties and countless ethnicities, could fail to be. But lots of other countries have similar divisions, without arriving at the fix we are now in, with not one but two provinces pondering whether to secede from the union. What factors make Canada so peculiarly fissiparous? One is our failure to develop a coherent theory of nationhood, a vision of what we have in common as Canadians compelling enough to overcome the temptations of particularism. A second related factor: Canada, all but uniquely among the democracies, has provided for its own dissolution, in its political debates and constitutional jurisprudence. Most other countries’ constitutions forbid it, explicitly or implicitly. Third, and perhaps most immediately relevant: We have an electoral system that seems almost purpose-built to divide us.
