The Loonie Hour ·

2021/12/03

Higher wages are coming to Canada. As the workforce ages there will be a shortage of workers, which means Canada will also rely more heavily on immigration.

The Loonie Hour ·

2021/11/26

The Bank of Canada is now blaming Real Estate investors for pushing home prices higher. But who is really to blame? In this argument we discuss the one policy tool never discussed by the media, the cost of borrowing. Keith argues a stronger US dollar is coming, potentially creating a sell-off in risk assets which might give breathing room for major central banks to keep interest rates at zero.
