From the end of the Second World War to early this century, Canada enjoyed a period of spectacular economic growth that saw the economy quadruple in fifty years. However, rather than growth, the past decade has seen economic stagnation, with increasing consumer debt masking the underlying problem.

The good news is that it’s a rut we can get out of if we start doing the things that once made us great. The bad news is that no one, before now, has correctly identified the problems, let alone provided common-sense solutions.
