Atkinson and Haizhen Mou for a discussion about the book and these crucial economic issues. The presentation will be followed by a reception for those joining in person. Note, at the 50:00 mark, Peter asks a question that was not picked up by the mic's, here is that question: I appreciate your point about budgeting for the long-term. Quite often current budgeting system accentuates the urgent over the long-term.  In the past governments have used Crowns, special operating agencies and spending envelopes to segment current and future priorities.  The UK Chancellor of the Exchequer and Mr. Carney are both advocating for separating operations from capital in the budget system.  What do you think of that as a possible direction for Canada?
