Canada's productivity challenge and what we can do about it
In this episode, I’m in Calgary with one of the top economists and big picture thinkers in Canada, Jack Mintz, President’s Fellow of the School of Public Policy at the University of Calgary, Order of Canada recipient as well as recipient of the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal in economics, and recently recognized by Who’s Who Legal as one of the top global experts on corporate taxation since 2016, and in this exclusive interview I catch up with my former Rotman economics prof and talk productivity, risk and opportunity to the Canadian economy, and what and how retailers should be thinking about the economy now and in the future.
