There are important lessons from the recent UK budget for Canada. Let’s heed them to help turn people’s real anxieties about their bills, homes and kids’ futures into prosperity for all Canadians

Opinion: The U.K. tax cuts: With one foot on the brakes, it’s foolish to stomp on the gas

Without a plan to balance the books, the U.K. ‘mini-budget’ is a 1980s trickle-down strategy that won’t build a 21st-century economy

Covid teaches us #resilience is important. It’s about having a strategic reserve we don’t use every day, but is there when we need it. Be it the next pandemic (sorry, there will be one) or climate change, do we have what we need when the unexpected happens? That’s #resilience .

Climate change and housing affordability aren’t just solvable problems; they have common solutions. Politicians at every level of government should take note and take action. My op-ed in today’s @GlobeandMail :

Opinion: We all deserve affordable homes and a stable climate – and that is achievable

If our effort to build millions of additional housing units ignores the climate consequences, we won’t truly achieve affordability

The combination of the weight of scientific evidence & the dynamics of the financial system suggest that #climatechange will threaten financial resilience & economic prosperity. This is a risk from which we cannot diversify, and the window to act is finite and shrinking. #values

The value of money is not simply the product of formulas, rules or algorithms. Money is grounded in values of trust, resilience, dynamism, solidarity and sustainability. Central banks should pursue a deliberate, values-based strategy to deliver monetary & financial stability.
