Welcome to the Beaver Lodge!

October 1, 2026 -- What's News Today

From The Wood Pile at The Beaver Lodge, Mr. Beaver reports on some of the day's headlines, including: The approval of the Pacific Link as a major project; a reversal from statistics Canada on population growth; the 30-year US Treasury bond hit another 25-year high today; monthly GDP data for July was flat, but month over month, quarterly and annualized numbers are positive; and a few updates on the Québec and British Columbia provincial elections.

NOTE: Apologies for the audio quality (you might have to turn it up). It would appear that the camera microphone picked up the audio on this one, rather than the microphone itself.
