There is an old cliché that inflation results from ‘too much money chasing too few goods.’ If the supply of goods and services doesn’t match the purchasing power of people who want to buy them, then prices will be bid up, causing inflation.

People with a bit of economics training often smugly assert that this adage somehow explains the inflation currently bedevilling Canadians. Unfortunately, the adage is a truism: it doesn’t provide any insight into what actually sparked an inflationary imbalance, nor how to fix it.

Have you ever dreamed of giving it all up, leaving it all behind and hitting the road to escape all your responsibilities?

It sounds good, doesn’t it? But it also sounds expensive. Or at least, it did sound expensive until now – because now a cruise company is launching a three-year, 130,000-mile, escape-your-daily-life cruise for a relatively affordable $30,000 per person per year.

There is certainly a need for seriousness at this moment. Because whatever China tried to do, it has succeeded in triggering a political and media feeding frenzy that threatens to do some real damage to Canadian democracy, regardless of what the truth might be.

After two devastating election outcomes, the Ontario Liberal Party is once again in the throes of a rebuilding process. The stakes are much higher today than five years ago when the party was reduced to a shell of its former self following 15 years of governing Canada’s largest province under two premiers.

The daunting reality is that for the first time since the 1940s — when Liberals finished third in two Ontario elections — the party faces an existential threat. But before the party becomes engrossed in a potentially divisive leadership contest, it must turn inwards to assess its innermost mechanics.

GUEST: Andrew Perez is a senior consultant at Hill & Knowlton Strategies, and volunteered for the Ontario Liberal Party during the 2022 election
