Department Chair Chris Worswick published an opinion piece in the Globe and Mail titled “If Ottawa botches the economy now, Canada might break apart.”

Division thrives when living standards are under threat, when people do not see their government protecting them from economic shocks. More than ever before, Canada must prioritize its economy, because if we do not, we risk the country falling apart.
