Remember when the Liberals campaigned on expanding national child care, but eviscerated the welfare state instead? Oh, the 90s!
Doug Nesbitt, founding editor of rankandfile.ca, joins Team Advantage to discuss the reign of Canada's Liberal Party through the 1990s. How did austerity and double-digit unemployment become normalized? What happened to Canada's social programs? How did the business lobby exert such influence? How did the media manufacture a fiscal crisis?
