Ending Corporate Welfare And Doing Industrial Policy Right

​Join us in a discussion on corporate subsidies with Joseph Steinberg, a Professor of Economics at the University of Toronto specializing in macroeconomics. This discussion will be moderated by Eric Lombardi.

​The federal government recently announced it's cutting back GM's funding after it cut jobs in Ontario. This begs the question of what our current strategy for subsidizing corporations is, and whether it's effective.

​Come learn about:

• ​What are the direct and indirect subsidies we give out?

• ​What's working and not working about our strategy?

• ​What would an effective industrial policy strategy look like?

​Agenda:

• ​6 pm: Doors open

• ​6:30 pm: Discussion with Prof Joseph Steinberg, moderated by Eric Lombardi

• ​7:00 pm: Q&A

• ​8:00 pm: Mingle

​There will be snacks and drinks. We'd love to see you there. For those that can't make it, we'll be livestreaming this event on X.
