If you can’t make sense of the Canadian economy these days, you’re not alone. Inflation is soaring, interest rates are rising, yet unemployment rates are historically low. Although no one has a crystal ball, it sure seems like a recession is imminent. This week, Frisco and Scott try to make sense of it all with David Macdonald, a senior economist at the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives. Also on the podcast: We talk Queen Elizabeth—and The Chicken Man of Halton Hills.
