Crisis and Opportunity: It's Time for a Progressive Economy



Last year, Alberta was in a boom— and then the world economy collapsed. What happened? What do we do now?

This year’s conference brought together academics, activists and journalists who have been thinking and writing about what went wrong and what kind of economy would be good for our society, our environment, and our world. Each comes from a very different progressive perspective. Our world can’t afford to keep going in the direction it has been, and these speakers are talking about the world we want.
