First foreign official visits of US Presidents:

• Kennedy: Canada

• Johnson: Canada

• Nixon: Belgium

• Ford: Mexico

• Carter: UK

• Reagan (term 1 ): Canada

• Reagan (term 2): Canada

• H. W. Bush: Canada

• Clinton (term 1): Canada

• Clinton (term 2): Finland

• W. Bush (term 1): Mexico

• W. Bush (term 2): Belgium

• Obama (term 1): Canada

• Obama (term 2): Israel

• Biden: UK

Trump (term 1): Saudi Arabia

• Trump (term 2): Saudi Arabia

 

An observation: Canada is therefore definitively losing its status as a privileged nation.

A consequence: With the lifting of sanctions against Syria, the Middle East is on the right track to regain serenity and prosperity, which naturally go hand in hand.

Dear readers,

This blog is yours: I maintain it diligently, with both consistency and passion. Thousands of articles and analyses are available to you here, some dating all the way back to 1993!

What were once considered heterodox views on macroeconomics have, over time, become widely accepted and recognized. Regardless, my positions have always been sincere.

As you can imagine — whether you’re discovering this site for the first time or have been reading me for years — the energy and time I dedicate to my research are substantial. This work will remain volunteer-based, and freely accessible to all.

I’ve made this payment platform available, and I encourage you to support my efforts through one-time or recurring donations.

A heartfelt thank you to all those who choose to support my work.
