This week’s Hub Dialogue Roundtable discusses the Century Initiative’s ambitious target to accelerate Canada’s population to 100 million by 2100 by ramping up immigration targets. What are the social, political, and economic dynamics and risks at play if we make this our goal?

We also talk about the bidding wars between the Stellantis EV battery plant and the federal and Ontario provincial governments regarding subsidies.
