  • Bring Politics Back to Monetary Policy

    Bring Politics Back to Monetary Policy

    • January 25, 2018

    The current battle over the liberal world order seems to be about trade, climate, and security policy. But monetary policy has also become an increasingly important arena of conflict. Populist leaders seem to love nothing more than denouncing central bankers …

    Scrooge in Paradise: Why Private Wealth is a Political Issue

    • December 19, 2017

    As global inequality grows to “extreme levels” — as revealed in the just-released World Inequality Report — it is hard not to wonder what it bodes for the health of liberal democracy — around the world and here in Canada.…

    How Rational are Capitalists in the Developing World?

    • December 13, 2017

    By Thomas Chiasson-LeBel

    A questionable fundamental assumption underpins a great deal of the literature in International Development studies. It suggests that given the proper incentives, a “national bourgeoisie” will adequately reinvest its profits and provoke a virtuous cycle of reinvestment …

    The Nuclear Renaissance is Dead… Did Canada Miss the Memo?

    Why NAFTA’s Chapter 19 is Worth Fighting For

    • July 29, 2017

    Canada has reportedly drawn a “red line” over Chapter 19 as the US calls for NAFTA renegotiations. That’s a good thing.

    Even before the negotiations to revise and modernize NAFTA begin on 16 August, a red line has been drawn …

    US Demands Won’t Lead to the NAFTA of Our Nightmares

    • July 22, 2017

    On July 17, the United States Trade Representative Office published the Trump administration’s detailed objectives for renegotiating the North American free-trade agreement. Contrary to President Donald Trump’s rhetoric about NAFTA in the past, the objectives document’s overall tone is very …

    A New Defence Policy for a New World Disorder?

    • June 12, 2017

    Dealing with Trump, Part 2: Charm Them with Statistics

    • June 2, 2017

    Given the decentralized nature of power in the United States, Ottawa’s attack plan to protect NAFTA includes a significant lobbying effort with members of Congress. Armed with detailed numbers, Canadian representatives repeatedly emphasize what is probably their strongest argument: Canada …

    Dealing with Trump, Part 1: Canada’s Success (So Far)

    • June 1, 2017

    Few countries have more to lose economically from a hostile Donald Trump administration than Canada. The country’s prosperity is largely dependent on privileged access to the US market: about 75 percent of Canadian exports are sold in the United States, …

    The G7 Disruptor

    • June 1, 2017

    The G7 is traditionally praised for its solidarity and collegiality, but the May 26–27 summit saw a very fragile partnership with an unapologetic disruptor at the table. The summit, and the NATO summit the day before, had its technical successes, …
