Is this a direction Canadians may approve of?
Javier Milei is Argentina's new president. In office for less than a year (sworn in on December 10, 2023), Milei has actively engaged in sweeping change to Argentina's governance and economic regulations. He has closed 13 federal ministries, throwing 30,000 bureaucrats out of work, has shuttered Argentina's largest tax collection agency, challenged the agenda at last week's G20 conference in Brazil and during his speech at the World Economic Forum earlier this year ended by saying the government is not the solution, government is the problem, "long live freedom, Dammit!" With a hard turn to the right is Argentina on the path to return to the economic prosperity it once enjoyed and is President Milei a template for international voters increasingly turning to populous conservative political candidates, or are his programs turning to failure?
Guest: Ian Vasquez. Vice president for International Studies at the Cato Institute and director of its Centre for Global Liberty and Prosperity. Co-author of the Human Freedom Index.
