Census Day Arrives in Canada; Starmer Refuses to Resign as Labour Revolt Reaches Critical Mass
Today is Census Day in Canada — the 2026 Census of Population’s official reference date, with millions of households urged to file before midnight. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer refused to resign as more than 70 Labour MPs demanded his departure and a junior minister quit, sending government bond yields to their highest since 2008. In India, NITI Aayog has recommended a two-year halt on all major government construction as PM Modi’s austerity appeals continue to ripple through markets.
