Has anyone tried turning @ElectionsAB off and on again to see if that helps?

In this first release we're looking at the energy and agriculture sectors in light of the Russia-Ukraine conflict as well as investments in the automotive sector given recent supply chain issue and the move towards EVs. Also quick looks at service exports and pharma investment

We're hoping to make this a more regular product and to evolve it. So please feel free to send us feedback and/or suggested ideas for the next release (likely in the late Fall). (4/4)
A million RTs and we’ll let @Alek_Manoah6 sing the anthem next year 👀 #CanadaDay

Really excellent visualization of what’s driving the headline inflation figure in Canada for May. Hotels and airfare are big factors.
Headline inflation in Canada was 6.8% in April, and rose to 7.7% in May. What happened? Gasoline surged higher (no surprise) but new this month are large contributions from flights and hotel prices. Contributions from new home prices (inside depreciation) are starting to fall.

True, and a trend across the global economy given inflation pressures and global central bank tightening. For comparison, Australia's 10yr yield is 3.68% which is the highest it's reached since May 2014.
With interest rates rising, government borrowing costs have now reached levels not seen since 2010.
Yep, it’s a pretty comprehensive site. There’s some Bloomberg stuff that’s good as well but less accessible.
The site Stephen linked to will give you a breakdown of refining margin, retailing margin, and taxes, over and above crude costs. Should help get at your question.
Looking forward to this event on Friday!
Coming up this Friday: a presentation and Q&A on Canada’s economic outlook in the context of a turbulent global environment led by Ross Prusakowski, acting Director of EDC’s Economic and Political Intelligence Centre (EPIC). Register here today! ow.ly/xfM350IOV9u.

Seems like a choice local authorities should offer
BREAKING: Blockade protesters at the Coutts border have just begun leaving the scene. They had a choice: leave or be arrested. calgary.ctvnews.ca/rcmp-begi…
With the upcoming retirement of @PeterGHallXIII @EDC will be hiring a new VP and Chief Economist. It's an amazing job with an amazing team (and also me), so if you're interested please check out the poster or feel free to connect with any questions. edc.taleo.net/careersection/…
