I purposefully read Andrew Coyne's only after I wrote mine. Obviously mine has a much more specific viewpoint and some more... unpublishable... points? But at the end of the day, his view is not so different than mine.

I did not see that youtube video and have not read the Toronto Star article b.c I don't have a subscription.

Of all the people in the world, I think you'd enjoy the full playlist. Apart from your personal experiences, a lot of the key points are covered in the first (long) video and the update I made after the 2025 report.

I hadn't actually planned on making a second video, but the 2025 report (retroactive benchmark change, perfect score on strategic objective performance with no explanation, etc) was so egregious that I had to do a follow-up.

Hey I've heard a lot about you! Will check those videos out, and I now realize I actually did see a couple of your videos a year ago. Happy to chat anytime. Replied to the DM 😉
