The affordability crisis goes well beyond the monthly inflation rate. It’s about cost of living, for sure, but also low productivity, stagnant wages, and wounded spirits. On the latest episode of the Sage Podcast, former Newfoundland and Labrador Finance Minister, Cathy Bennett and former B.C. Cabinet Secretary Don Wright join hosts Edward Greenspon and Allan Gregg to talk over this unfolding economic, social, and political tragedy, and the staying power of rebate and subsidy responses. While governments need to focus on geopolitical threats, they risk long-term generational unrest if they don’t also get with the program on affordability.
Listen today to this essential discussion, and let your network know that Sage is digging into these big, hairy issues.
