Outer Banks season 4 officially restarted filming on Monday, November 20, 2023, in a new location. Reports from Star News and local outlets in Wilmington, North Carolina, indicate that filming will take place on November 20 and 21. Outer Banks is among the first Netflix shows to resume production. Originally slated to be filmed in North Carolina, including Wilmington, production shifted to Charleston, South Carolina, in 2017 due to North Carolina’s HB-2. Netflix opted to relocate production to distance itself from the law. The return to North Carolina is notable, especially considering the plot of season 4. The conclusion of season 3 hinted at a new treasure hunt involving the Pogues pursuing Blackbeard's treasure. Blackbeard, also known as Edward Teach, historically sailed the region. Filming for Outer Banks season 4 commenced in June, and there were initial concerns that the season might not return until 2025. However, the recent resumption of production alleviates those worries. The decision to resume filming in North Carolina adds a layer of geographical relevance to the storyline, aligning with the historical context of Blackbeard's presence in the region. Outer Banks season 4's return to its roots in North Carolina promises to bring fans a continuation of the treasure hunt saga initiated in the previous season.

Getting on the property ladder is so tough these days more young Canadians despair of ever getting to the first rung.

Reversing climate change has defined the Trudeau government, generating the incessant virtue signalling and innumerable intrusive initiatives for which, after eight years, it is infamous. But now the entire climate project is staggering from a trifecta of reality checks — missed emission targets, public blowback against the carbon tax and, at long last, growing realization that nothing Canada does will change global temperatures.

Last week, Justin Trudeau put out a statement to mark Global Entrepreneurship Week. “The Government of Canada,” he said, “is working to remove barriers so that entrepreneurship can continue to thrive.” That sounds nice, except for the “continue to” part: entrepreneurship has not thrived under his government at all. Statistics Canada reports that despite significant population growth between 2015 and 2022, the number of Canadians who were self-employed and who employed other people for pay fell 11 per cent. Contrast this decline in entrepreneurs to the 18 per cent growth in public sector employment over the same period. The two statistics are connected. Adding to government employment takes away money and resources that businesses and entrepreneurs need to establish themselves and grow.
