CALGARY, May 1, 2012 /CNW/ - Todd Hirsch is the senior economist at ATB Financial, which is an Alberta-only financial institution. He's also the author of The Boiling Frog Dilemma: Saving Canada From Economic Decline. Todd is in Montreal on May 3, and he'd love to share his perspective, the new western perspective with your audience.
The Boiling Frog isn't your typical book on economics. Maybe, that's because Todd isn't your typical economist. He argues that it's time for creativity and cosmopolitanism, innovation and internationalism to be admitted into the family of economic virtues. It's a book from an economist that doesn't have a single graph in it. Or a pie chart.
Here's Todd himself with a little more on his trip to your city.
Maybe you want to talk about manufacturing, the so-called petro dollar, or maybe you want to talk about what's really happening out west with jobs and culture and finance.
If you do, give me a call, drop me a line, and we'll make do our best to make it happen on your schedule.
