This is the sixth episode of The Hub’s bi-weekly series featuring Sean Speer in conversation with leading author, journalist, and thinker David Frum. The two discuss the recent Liberal-NDP parliamentary agreement, what it may mean for Canadian fiscal policy including in the forthcoming federal budget, and the potential that it triggers a market-oriented reaction as we saw in the 1970s and 1980s.
They also discuss how the Opposition and other critics of progressive overreach can best make the case for a return to limited government, as well as to what extent issues of identity will be the most salient factor in our politics moving forward.
