## Resource

Today, we’re breaking down how BlackBerry is back in the black thanks to its QNX vehicle software business, and why the company’s pivot to “computers on wheels” could power its next chapter. We also cover the BDC’s new $150M life sciences fund, and what it could mean for Canadian startups trying to turn world-class research into real companies. Plus, in the big picture: Trump’s pressure campaign on NATO allies, a major Quebec port expansion getting underway, and why Canadian rents just hit their steepest year-over-year drop in nearly five years.' The Peak Daily is produced in partnership with reframevid.com
