I was checking out the latest news and I have to say, these headlines made me feel like I was back in the US for a minute. What's the deal with all of the gun violence lately?

We have had a incredible spike in gun crime over the past 5-10 years. Theyre mostly smuggled from the states.

It's a very lucrative black market that's not been effectively addressed (like fentanyl). Our government has a buy-gun-back program where they pay people to hand over their guns. But what's happening is it's people with legit licenses taking advantage, not the criminals. Furthermore, the bail system if criminals are caught allows them to come out asap.

Essentially our current government has not addressed the guns and drugs effectively.

It actually costs less to invest in social programs, schools, healthcare and small business initiatives than it is to create gun buy back programs, jails and hire more cops.

Everyone is scattered throughout (Hamilton, Barrie, Lyle, Newmarket, North York). Don’t want anything too fancy but don’t really know where or what is good and not downtown.


Any recommendations? (Open to GTA of course).

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!
