Today’s show is one of the 2-parters you’ve come to expect from The Herle Burly – still the only podcast that combines 1970s breakfast cereal references with pandemic social-economic theory.
For Part 1, Peter Weltman joins us today. Peter is Ontario’s Financial Accountability Officer. That means he heads an office that provides independent fiscal, financial and economic analysis on the state of the Province's finances ... plus trends in the provincial economy. We’ll talk about the choices made in the last Thursdays’ budget. Ontario’s ongoing financial capacity and its deficit. And where the province goes from here. B-T-W, Peter is also an avid listener to the podcast, who just reached out one day and took me to lunch. Which tells all of you Herle Burly-ites ... I can be bought. A decent cheeseburger will probably do it.
Part 2 of the pod is our ever-lovin’ Political Panel, with strategists Jenni Byrne and Scott Reid. They cuss, they say smart things and tell funny stories, they fight like aggressive wallabys, and then they blow each other kisses from their ZOOM CUBES and make up. We’ll pick up on the Weltman conversation. Plus, we’ll talk a little about what’s going on down south right now, the heightened focus on Georgia’s Senate seats, transition issues, possible recounts, and we’ll share some of our own stories.
