Show Notes

Millions of Canadians have received CERB (and may have a tax debt next year), and many Canadians have incurred and deferred debt to survive the pandemic. How will they repay that debt? First aired in May, today we have a new introduction and update, and then we rebroadcast our episode on an ancient concept that is getting a lot of new interest: a debt jubilee.

Enjoy!
