Public sector reform and productivity-enhancing policies don’t have to be at odds with increasing living standards. The key is implementing changes thoughtfully

Sounds like you’re saying productivity = living standard which might be the case when the take gdp per capita as a proxy for living standards Reducing deadweight loss can free up resources for innovation, or targeted social policies that actually improve living standards

Cutting the public service isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It can reduce waste or what’s called deadweight loss specially when we need to encourage productivity, it can also encourage private spending by the space left by the government. The key is to not do it haphazardly

her appproach feels so desperate. Instead of proposing policies that would appeal to a wider pool of voters.🫣

Sadly most people don’t watch the debates and many don’t understand division of powers between provinces and the federal government, so they don’t even know what things are fords fault 🤦‍♀️

She’s a terrible interviewer, seemed to be looking for a gotcha moment and wouldn’t let him provide context or explain enough.

Thank you, very interesting reading the methodology. Seems that its fairly reliable controlling for demographics, ratings, and historical trends. It wouldn't seem very susceptible to outliers. It maybe struggles with first time star candidates, although not really a problem in the Ontario election.

Do we know if they add different weights based on the reliability of the polls? could make their aggregation more reliable
