The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail.

Today on the pod, a guest who makes me feel like we’re doing something right around here at Air Quotes Media. Or, at least, not altogether wrong. That’s because she keeps coming back to the show, pretty much every time we ask her. 5 times now! And that makes her the all-time record holder for appearances … taking her out of a tie with Peter Weltman.

I want all our listeners to know, I’ve offered her the coveted full-time position as Herle Burly In-House Economist, but for some weird reason, she prefers to remain in her current job: Global Chief Economist and Strategist at Manulife Financial.

Frances Donald is with us today!

So today, a tour of most of the economic hot button issues:

• What’s the outlook for the next 18 months?
• Canadian Fiscal Policy and the role of low deficits.
• Immigration and the economy.And why is there a shortage of skilled trades to build the housing we so desperately need?
