About this episode
The trucker convoy protest in the capital has dominated the news for the past few weeks, with many Canadian commentators expressing shock and disbelief that the country is experiencing such a forceful wave of populism. But at least one person is not surprised at all. Jeff Rubin is an award-winning Canadian author. He’s the former chief economist at CIBC World Markets, and a former Senior Fellow at the Centre for International Governance Innovation. His latest book is called The Expendables: How The Middle Class Got Screwed By Globalization - and it has turned out to be quite prescient. On today's episode, Jeff Rubin joins Tara for a deep dive into the economic conditions driving the current unrest.
