How did Canada get into a productivity crisis?

Hamilton Today with Scott Thompson

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson:

Tasha Kheiriddin’s new piece for The National Post: “Anti-Israel hate marches holding the rest of us hostage while Trudeau shrugs.” What does the fast-moving ban on TikTok mean, and what are the concerns about the app? On June 14, 2024 – sixty years to the day since its arrival – the Lancaster is set to make a celebratory return visit to Goderich Regional Airport. NASA hears from Voyager 1, the most distant spacecraft from Earth, after months of quiet. The hunt for the origins of COVID-19 has gone dark in China, the victim of political infighting after a series of stalled and thwarted attempts to find the source of the virus that killed millions and paralyzed the world for months. Is Canada in a productivity crisis, and if so, how did we get here and can be done about it? New Leger polling reveal how Canadians feel about the new federal budget. The province is planning on upping the speed limit on certain 400-series highways across Ontario.
