Brookfield assets management

Mark Carney’s Brookfield asset management is going to prove to be a Pandora’s box of financial and political corruption.

Here is the latest synopsis of an article from Blacklock. https://www.blacklocks.ca/army-contractor-fails-audit/

The structure of the corporate subsidiaries of Brookfield is so complicated, they refer to it as the Brookfield ecosystem.

Subsidiaries and related entities in all aspects of business. In addition to their holdings in publicly traded companies.

Going to try to dive down a little bit and see what is publicly available from the Internet as I wait in the vet’s office :-)

Declaration of Independence

Audio podcast style.

Declaration of Independence

"In a rare and high-profile presentation to the UN Security Council, U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff on Thursday introduced a sweeping American initiative to restore humanitarian aid to Gaza through a new independent mechanism known as the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF).

The plan, detailed in a 14-page document obtained by Ynet, aims to bypass long-standing challenges that have undermined donor trust and hindered aid distribution. Witkoff emphasized the initiative’s founding principles of “transparency, independence and security,” seeking to ensure aid does not reach Hamas.

The foundation proposes the creation of four Secure Distribution Sites across the Gaza Strip, each serving up to 300,000 people, with the goal of reaching 1.2 million residents in the first phase and up to 2 million later. The sites will operate without military presence, under direct supervision of independent safety and security teams. Aid — including food packages, hygiene kits, medicine and water — will be ...

Planned Appearances

Art of the Day: My dream office. A marriage of old English style study with futuristic vision enveloped by nature itself – the hard wood floors, old leathery chairs, delicate rugs, ovacular egg-shaped open-air desk, classic texts carefully bound in rising bookcases, interrupted by open windows embracing the sky, trees, and stars surrounding us, embedding the work-space into God’s creation, where the archives of nature map the eternal truths onto the soul mirrored in the many texts within and the mind’s inner narratives of the workspace itself.

Book Recommendation: Princes of the Yen by Richard Werner reveals how industrial policy rescued post-war Japan and central bank financialization destroyed it.

Wisdom of the Day: “Banks can create money out of nothing.” Richard Werner.

The Barnes Brief: Friday, April 25, 2025

Planned Appearances

Art of the Day: Old books, the kind you can find undervalued at estate sales, or hidden away in new England antiquarian book stores (as I once found an original of Uncle Tom’s Cabin), or dusted deep in the cellars of great libraries. I began collecting as a kid, having to sell early when the family hit tough financial times later on, but my fondness for old books never left. The rich leather binding, the craftsmanship of the book binders of old, the delicate care of a bookstore owner or devoted librarian, and the buried truths within these texts penned and published from a different time and place, where the written word mattered, whispering to us truths too occasionally forsaught or forgot. 

Book Recommendation: War Is a Racket. The infamous text of General Smedley Butler representing the rightful protest against the war machine after witnessing the horrors of World War 1.

Wisdom of the Day: “War is but a matter of profit for the few.” Senator Gerald Nye.

Art of the Day: Swiss Master Craft

Patek Phillipe, the Swiss watchmaker whose rare watches can fetch millions at auction. The signature accessory of successful men, and the Swiss tradecraft remains world renowned for a reason. I uncovered the significance after a client gifted me one of their watches years ago, only to uncover I was giving would-be bandits about six-figure reasons to machete my hand off. I generally avoid watches to this day. The artistic rendering of time in the Swiss skill-craft proves an art of its own kind which I leave at home rather than accompany me in public. Indeed, a well-chosen watch can be a valuable asset of a financial freedom plan. My favorite watch I still cherish the most though still recalls my Dad’s favorite watch, a then $49.99 calculator watch he could use to do math in a jam, which he showed off to everybody. It wasn’t Swiss-made, but it represented an equally true form of expression and real wealth.

Book Recommendation

 Wealth & Democracy by Kevin Phillips includes a substantial section dedicated to the economic rise and fall of great powers, with a particular focus on trade and industrial policy.  

Wisdom of the Day

“The fact that hearings are utilized by the Executive to secure an informed basis for the exercise of summary power does not argue the right of courts to retry such hearings not bespeak denial of due process to withhold such power from the courts.” Justice Frankfurter, Ludecke v. Watkins (1948).
