National Review: To Heal Our Divided Country, Drive 50 Miles in Any Direction. Then Schmooze
American pluralism is being strained by the focus on personal identity and beliefs in the political debate, leading to violence and attempts to silence opponents. To address this, the recommendation is to engage in contact with people different from oneself, as studies have shown that this promotes tolerance and acceptance. Common ground can be found by emphasizing shared identities, telling stories, and empathizing with others. Most Americans are not deeply polarized and are open to conversation and understanding. Institutions should also facilitate intergroup contact to further promote unity.

National Review: ‘Greedflation’ and Stupidity (Canadian Edition)
Canada's federal government is considering a special tax on grocery stores in an attempt to tackle rising food prices. The government's Standing Committee on Agriculture and Agri-Food recommends a windfall profits tax on large grocery chains if they are found to be generating excess profits.

Such taxes would only lead to higher prices for consumers and discourage investment in the food sector.
