Statement by the Prime Minister on the anniversary of the birth of Guru Nanak Dev Ji

November 30, 2020
Ottawa, Ontario

The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today issued the following statement to mark the anniversary of the birth of Guru Nanak Dev Ji:

“Today, Sikhs in Canada and around the world will celebrate the anniversary of the birth of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikhism and the first Sikh Guru.

“The anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s birth is an important day for Sikh Canadians. It celebrates his life and his teachings of unity, equality, selflessness, and service.

“This year, as we continue to fight the global COVID-19 pandemic, those teachings have never been more important. Whether it is supporting a local charity, being there for neighbours, or helping those who are more vulnerable, Sikh Canadians continue to show selfless service.

“This year will look different as we follow public health guidelines to keep each other and our communities safe, but the Sikh values of compassion and inclusion will remain strong. These values, which form the core principles of Sikhism, are also important for all Canadians.

“Today is an opportunity to recognize the significant contributions that Canada’s Sikh community – one of the largest and most dynamic Sikh populations in the world – makes to build a better, fairer, and more inclusive Canada.

“On behalf of our family, Sophie and I offer our warmest wishes to everyone celebrating the birth of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, here in Canada and around the world.”

Déclaration du premier ministre à l’occasion de l’anniversaire de la naissance de Guru Nanak Dev Ji

Le 30 novembre 2020
Ottawa (Ontario)

Le premier ministre Justin Trudeau a fait aujourd’hui la déclaration suivante à l’occasion de l’anniversaire de la naissance de Guru Nanak Dev Ji :

« Aujourd’hui, les sikhs au Canada et à travers le monde célébreront l’anniversaire de la naissance de Guru Nanak Dev Ji, fondateur du sikhisme et premier Guru sikh.

« L’anniversaire de la naissance de Guru Nanak Dev Ji est une journée importante pour les Canadiens sikhs. Elle célèbre sa vie et ses enseignements sur l’unité, l’égalité, le dévouement et le service.

« Cette année, alors que nous poursuivons notre lutte contre la pandémie mondiale de COVID-19, ces enseignements sont plus importants que jamais. Que ce soit en appuyant un organisme de bienfaisance local, en donnant un coup de main à leurs voisins ou en aidant les personnes les plus vulnérables, les Canadiens sikhs continuent d’être là pour aider les autres.

« Même si les célébrations seront différentes cette année puisque nous suivons les consignes de santé publique pour assurer notre sécurité et celle de nos communautés, les valeurs sikhes de compassion et d’inclusion demeureront fortes. Ces valeurs, qui forment les principes fondamentaux du sikhisme, sont également importantes pour tous les Canadiens.

« L’anniversaire de la naissance de Guru Nanak Dev Ji nous donne l'occasion de reconnaître les nombreuses contributions que la communauté sikhe du Canada, qui est l’une des populations sikhes les plus importantes et les plus dynamiques au monde, apporte pour bâtir un Canada meilleur, plus juste et plus inclusif.

« Sophie et moi offrons nos meilleurs vœux à tous ceux qui célèbrent l’anniversaire de la naissance de Guru Nanak Dev Ji, ici au Canada et à travers le monde. »

Statement by the Prime Minister on Holodomor Memorial Day

November 28, 2020
Ottawa, Ontario

The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today issued the following statement on Holodomor Memorial Day:

“Today, we join Ukrainian communities in Canada and around the world to remember the millions of people who suffered and died during the Holodomor.

“From 1932 to 1933, Joseph Stalin’s totalitarian Soviet regime created a devastating famine in Ukraine – a genocide meant to break the spirit of the Ukrainian people, erase their identity, and stop their aspirations for freedom and independence. Millions died of starvation, many of them children, and others were arrested, deported, or executed as part of this brutal campaign.

“In the face of such cruelty, Ukrainians endured. They held tightly to their language and their culture, despite all attempts of the regime to repress and persecute them. In 1991, after over half a century of Soviet oppression and rule, Ukraine won its independence.

“For decades, the vicious reality of the Holodomor was denied and the suffering of Ukrainians was hidden from the world. It is our responsibility to remember the stories of those who were lost and the families who suffered. We must accept these hard truths, and commit ourselves to always act when human rights are threatened.

“On this solemn anniversary, I encourage all Canadians to honour the memory of the victims of the Holodomor, and recognize the ways that Ukrainian Canadians have contributed to building a better country for all of us. I also reaffirm Canada’s unwavering support for a free and independent Ukraine.

“Vichna Yim Pamyat.”

Déclaration du premier ministre à l’occasion du Jour commémoratif de l’Holodomor

Le 28 novembre 2020
Ottawa (Ontario)

Le premier ministre Justin Trudeau a fait aujourd’hui la déclaration suivante à l’occasion du Jour commémoratif de l’Holodomor :

« Aujourd’hui, nous nous joignons aux communautés ukrainiennes au Canada et à travers le monde pour nous rappeler les millions de personnes qui ont souffert et péri lors de l’Holodomor.

« En 1932 et 1933, le régime soviétique totalitaire de Joseph Staline a provoqué une famine dévastatrice en Ukraine. Ce génocide visait à détruire la détermination du peuple ukrainien, à effacer son identité et à anéantir ses espoirs de liberté et d’indépendance. Des millions de personnes sont mortes de faim, dont de nombreux enfants. D’autres ont été arrêtées, déportées ou exécutées dans le cadre de cette campagne brutale.  

« Devant une telle cruauté, les Ukrainiens ont persisté. Ils se sont accrochés fermement à leur langue et à leur culture, malgré les nombreuses tentatives du régime de les réprimer et de les persécuter. En 1991, après plus d’un demi-siècle d’oppression sous le règne soviétique, l’Ukraine a remporté son indépendance.

« Pendant des décennies, la cruelle réalité de l’Holodomor a été réfutée et la souffrance du peuple ukrainien a été cachée au reste du monde. C’est notre responsabilité de nous souvenir des histoires des disparus et des familles qui ont souffert. Nous devons accepter ces vérités difficiles et nous engager à agir dès que nous voyons que des droits de la personne sont menacés.

« En cet anniversaire solennel, j’encourage tous les Canadiens à se souvenir des victimes de l’Holodomor et à reconnaître les contributions des Canadiens d’origine ukrainienne à bâtir un pays meilleur pour nous tous. Je réitère également le soutien inébranlable du Canada à l’égard de la liberté et de l’indépendance de l’Ukraine.

« Vichna Yim Pamyat. »

The latest IMF analysis of global economics, finance, development and policy issues shaping the world //

VIEW IN BROWSER    Dear maria, We just published a new blog—please find the full text below. Translations coming soon.   How the Rich Get Richer By Davide Malacrino Wealth begets wealth. This simple concept of privilege has added to growing discontent with inequality that has escalated under the shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic. A paper co-authored this year by economists from the IMF and other institutions confirms that wealthier people are more likely to earn higher returns on their investments. It also shows that the children of wealthy people, while likely to inherit that wealth, aren’t necessarily going to make the same high returns on investments. Detailed data on wealth are extremely rare, but 12-years of tax records (2004-2015) from Norway have opened a new window into wealth accumulation for individuals and their offspring. The Nordic country has a wealth tax that requires assets to be reported by employers, banks and other third parties in order to reduce errors from self-reporting. The data, which are made public under certain conditions, also make it possible to match parents with their children. The data show that an individual in the 75th percentile of wealth distribution who invested $1 in 2004 would have yielded $1.50 by the end of 2015—a return of 50 percent. A person in the top 0.1 percent would have yielded $2.40 on the same invested dollar—a return of 140 percent. Another significant finding: High returns both bring individuals to the top of the wealth scale and prevent them from leaving it. Controlling for age, parental background and earnings, moving from the 10th percentile to 90th percentile of wealth distribution increases the probability of making it to the top 1 percent by 1.2 percentage points compared to an average probability of 0.89 percent.   Why do rich people earn high returns? Conventional wisdom suggests that richer individuals put more of their assets toward high risk investments, which can result in higher returns. But our research finds that wealthy people often earn a higher return even on more conservative investments. Richer individuals enjoy pure “returns to scale” to their wealth. Specifically, for given portfolio allocation, individuals who are wealthier are more likely to get higher risk-adjusted returns, possibly because they have access to exclusive investment opportunities or better wealth managers. Financial sophistication, financial information, and entrepreneurial talent are also important. These characteristics make the returns to wealth persistent over time. This research is the first to quantify this mechanism and show that it is likely to matter empirically. Do high returns persist across generations? The answer is a qualified yes. Wealth has a high degree of intergenerational correlation, but there are important differences in how returns to wealth accrue across generations. The children of the richest are likely to be very rich, but unlikely to get as high returns from this wealth as their parents did. This suggests that while money is perfectly inheritable, exceptional talent is not.  Davide Malacrino is an Economist in the Research Department of the IMF. ***** Thank you again for your interest in IMF Blog.

Gruppo Maggioli:EU clash over Poland and Hungary veto Covid19 recovery budget

ISSUE N. 127 30 NOVEMBER 2020

Inside this issue EU clash over Poland and Hungary veto Covid19 recovery budget The new energy strategy for the EU How does the Hungarian-polish veto impacts migrants? Poland and Hungary against the EU over “rule of law”: deadlock on the budget Does the EU have a capacity to survive another veto? Information measures relating to the Common Agricultural Policy

EDITORIAL  EU clash over Poland and Hungary veto Covid19 recovery budget  While the Continent is engaged in a tug-of-war with the second wave of the pandemic, European policy has been shaken by an historic event: the veto exercised by Hungary and Poland.On November 16th, the two countries stood against the conditionality mechanism proposed by European Institutions, that is to bind the provision of the structural funds for 2021-27 to comply with the rule of law. Budapest and Warsaw, by years champs of the most Eurosceptic side of the Union, thus broke the method of unanimity on a vital issue. The European Parliament already stated its unavailability to negotiate the terms of the rule of law with the two countries. Thus, the European Union is entering a terra incognita driven by a crisis arisen around non-negotiable principles, such as those of civil liberties and personal rights.

ENERGY  The new energy strategy for EU With the launch of the Green Deal last December, the European Commission initiated the transition to a new type of economy and society. A radical transformation that brings with it an upheaval in the way Europe has produced, consumed and lived until today. The goal to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 is now well known and has found consensus at institutional and public opinion levels. Therefore, since the beginning of the year, the Commission has set out to identify strategies and tools to this end, which assumes, however, a multi-level, cross-sectoral intervention involving European economies and societies as a whole.

MIGRATION How does the Hungarian-polish veto impacts migrants? Hungary and Poland vetoed the decision on adoption the new EU budget devoted for post-Covid19 recovery, on November 16. This was another veto has shaken the EU-27 bloc. Does it have any impact for migrants with the migrant crisis going on?Hungary and Poland vetoed the budget and recovery plan on November 16, explaining that they do not accept the financial assistance conditionality clause. - After accepting the current proposal, there would be no obstacles for linking the distribution of funds from the fund to member states with support for immigration or for blackmail with budget sanctions against countries that oppose immigration - Orbán said, MTI agency reported.  Click here to read the article

EMPLOYMENT AND SOCIAL AFFAIRS  Poland and Hungary against the EU over “rule of law”: deadlock on the budget Something has clouded the skies in the European Union, questioning its credibility that is now tied with the approval of Multiannual Financial Framework 2021-2027 and Next Generation EU.  Without the votes of Hungary and Poland, budgetary decisions cannot be reached in the EU. And the issue is crucial also for the final outcome of Germany’s presidency of the EU: despite the “phone diplomacy” of the last days between Berlin, Budapest and Warsaw, no compromise solution appears to be on the horizon, setting up the possibility of a major clash at the upcoming European Council summit on December 10-11.

ECONOMY Does the EU have a capacity to survive another veto? On November 16, another veto has shaken the EU-27 bloc. This time, central European Member States have vetoed a multibillion package dedicated for the Covid19 pandemic relief. What happened actually and what are the consequences for such move? Does the EU have a capacity to survive recurring series of vetoes in the near future? This analysis reveals a bit. Hungary and Poland blocked the adoption of a seven-year EU budget and a plan to recover from the Corona virus pandemic due to a new mechanism that envisages the denial of EU funds to countries whose governments are undermining democratic standards and the rule of law.

EU FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES Information measures relating to the Common Agricultural Policy The call supports information measures illustrating how the future future common agricultural policy (CAP) will contribute to the realization of the Commission's political priorities, in particular the European Green Deal. In the framework of the European Green Deal, the European Commission specifically adopted the "From farm to fork" strategy and the biodiversity strategy for the 2030, which address issues relevant to agriculture and rural areas.
