Episode Synopsis

On BIV Today… UBC economics professor Kevin Milligan (1:31) analyzes federal fiscal policy changes that could help Canada attract investments that benefit the economy, without racing to the bottom against U.S. corporate tax cuts. BIV’s weekly tech panel (13:09) discusses Venmo’s privacy gaff, the future of the World Wide Web and B.C.’s ride-hailing delays. Ali Pourdad, CEO of Progressa, shares his thoughts on why ride-hailing may never make it to B.C. Amielle Lake, entrepreneur-in-residence at e@UBC, examines Solid – a radical concept for a new web, as imagined by the web’s original founder.
