Summary
The Prime Minister’s historic residence, 24 Sussex Drive, is in dire need of renovation—and Canadians are stepping up. Since PM Carney called for public donations in June, over 3,000 contributors have poured in $735,000, with every province and territory represented. The goal? $50 million—no more, no less—with strict rules: only Canadian citizens, residents, or charities can donate, no crypto or anonymous gifts allowed. Every donor’s name is publicly listed. Meanwhile, a design competition is underway, led by architect Moshe Safdie, to reimagine this national landmark that’s hosted ten prime ministers since 1943. It’s a uniquely Canadian effort to restore history, one donation at a time. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
