Podcast appearances and mentions of Don Drummond

The Bank of Canada has lowered its key interest rate to 2.25 per cent. The quarter-point cut is the second consecutive rate cut by the central bank and comes amid the ongoing U.S. trade tensions. The Bank also released its Monetary Policy Report, warning that the trade conflict is "fundamentally reshaping" Canada's economy. Is the Bank optimistic or pessimistic on the economic future? Could future cuts be on the horizon? Joining today's episode to unpack what the latest Bank of Canada decision means for markets and the economy, is renowned economist Don Drummond. Don is a former Chief Economist at TD Financial Group, and current Stauffer-Dunning Fellow and Distinguished Visiting Scholar in the School of Policy Studies at Queens University.

Newly minted Liberal Leader Mark Carney ran on an ambitious platform. He promised quick and bold action. But six months into his tenure as prime minister, what have Canadians witnessed? This week on “It's Political” we'll get a variety of viewpoints on how Carney is dealing with Trump, the economy, the environment, among other issues. Then, the Toronto Star's Ottawa bureau will discuss the challenges this government faces in passing its agenda. Who will be Carney's dance partner? And how does the NDP's search for a new leader, and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre's review play into those considerations? Host Althia Raj is joined by politics reporters Ryan Tumilty and Raisa Patel, and the Star's deputy Ottawa Bureau Chief Alex Ballingall.  Also featured on this episode: Mark Warner, Principal at MAAW Law; economist Don Drummond, the Stauffer-Dunning fellow at Queen's University and a fellow-in-residence at C.D. Howe; and Anna Johnston, a staff lawyer at West Coast Environmental Law. This episode of “It's Political” was produced by Kevin Sexton and Althia Raj. Matt Hearn is our sound engineer.

Where does Canada stand in the overall picture of growth? And to what extent are interest rates, and interest rate policy, crucial to growth in Canada's age of industrialization? The Bank of Canada held interest rates steady for a third consecutive time last week. At 2.75 percent, the central bank says the rate is at the mid-way point of its neutral range. As the growth of global hyper-scalers roars ahead and the slowing-down of sectors not linked to the A.I. supply chain in some way unfolds, can North American central bank policy play the pivotal role it once did in driving economic outcomes? Joining today's episode to further discuss the Bank of Canada's latest rate move - and the scenarios around which it was made - is former TD Bank Chief economist, Don Drummond. Don is also currently the Stauffer-Dunning Fellow at Queen's University and Fellow-in-Residence at the C.D. Howe Institute. Recorded on July 31, 2025.

Ukraine's Ambassador to Canada Yuliya Kovaliv says Russia is increasingly attacking civilians after it targeted Kyiv overnight with waves of drones and missiles in its largest aerial assault since the full-scale invasion. Kovaliv responds to concerns about Ukraine's decision to pull out of an anti-landmine treaty. Plus, economist Don Drummond breaks down his shadow 'fiscal update' with the C.D. Howe institute, explaining why he believes new defence spending promises could balloon the deficit to over $90 billion.

The Bank of Canada is holding its key lending rate at 2.75 per cent. This is the first pause after seven consecutive rate cuts, and Macklem cites Trump's tariffs for the decision. Is this the end of the bank's easing cycle, or truly a pause in light of global trade uncertainty? Joining the show today to unpack all this and more is renowned economist Don Drummond.

Canada's political parties have now released their election platforms and put a price tag on their plans. Some of their costing is a little suspect, some uses creative accounting, it all fails  to go far enough to address the problem economists say political leaders should be grappling with: increasing the country's productivity.  This week, on “It's Political,” we look at productivity. What is it, and what should Canada be doing to increase it.  Then, we'll sit down and dissect the party's platforms: their math and what they are really doing to increase economic growth in the country. Does any party go far enough?  In this episode: Don Drummond, fellow-in-residence at the CD Howe Institute and former TD chief economist, and Tim Sargent, a senior fellow and director of the domestic policy program at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute. Hosted by Althia Raj.  This episode of “It's Political” was produced by Althia Raj and Kevin Sexton. Kevin also mixed this program. Our theme music is by Isaac Joel.

The Bank of Canada has cut its key interest rate by 25 basis points. This is the sixth consecutive cut by the bank, and it brings their key lending rate to 3%. With Trump's tariff threat looming over Canada, what might this mean for future cuts? And what might it all mean for the economy, the dollar, and your investment decisions? Joining the show today to unpack all this and more is renowned economist Don Drummond.

Today we're joined by economist Don Drummond for a live reaction of the Bank of Canada's recent policy announcement.  Don breaks down the Bank of Canada's surprising decision to cut interest rates by 50 basis points, and what this means for the Canadian economy, housing market, and consumers. The rate cut is largely aimed at stimulating housing demand and supply, although Don points out that this move is unlikely to significantly impact housing prices. Instead, it serves as a boost to housing availability, potentially easing some pressure on a market in dire need of dense and affordable housing options. Addressing the broader economic impacts on the Canadian dollar and productivity, Don highlights a notable productivity gap between Canada and the U.S., which is tied to a weaker Loonie. This 20% disparity is a key challenge, as a less competitive currency can strain Canadian productivity growth relative to the U.S.   Recorded on October 24th, 2024.   At Fidelity, our mission is to build a better future for Canadian investors and help them stay ahead.

Today on the pod, the kind of show I love. One of those single topic podcasts, where we drill down on a question, let the conversation flow and assume its own shape. I'll outline the question in a moment, but first our guest: My friend and heavy-hitting Canadian-economy-deep-thinker, Don Drummond.The Right Honourable Paul Martin called Don Drummond “One of the most principled and imaginative public servants with whom I have ever worked.” Don spent almost 23 years in senior positions in the federal Department of Finance, culminating in Associate Deputy Minister. Post government, he was Chief Economist for TD Bank, he is an Adjunct Professor at the School of Policy Studies at Queen's University, and he's an in-demand thinker, writer and commentator.So, the question we're exploring here is this: With the Fall Economic Statement as a backdrop, how can government address the political demand for affordability relief to Canadians? From programs like pharmacare and school food, to Poilievre “axing the tax”, to Doug Ford cutting every Ontarian a cheque for $200 … what is smart and what is dumb?Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

Today we're pleased to welcome a special guest, renowned economist Don Drummond. Don has held several senior roles at the Federal Department of Finance, including Associate Deputy Minister, where he was responsible for economic analysis, and fiscal and tax policies. Today, Don comments on the latest Bank of Canada announcement, possible rate cuts, the housing market and rental pressure. Don says the Bank believes in a model where creating slack in the economy will, over time, reduce inflation. The BoC also expressed confidence in its strategy, indicating that the first step of creating slack in the economy has been accomplished. But Don points out the market tends to anticipate economic changes, positioning itself in advance. He says the clock for these changes has just started, whereas people initiated this countdown a year or two earlier. Recorded on January 25, 2024.

Today on the show, we welcome renowned economist Don Drummond who discusses the Bank of Canada's latest interest rate decision as well as the overall health of Canada's economy. Don has held several senior roles at the Federal Department of Finance, including Associate Deputy Minister, where he was responsible for economic analysis, and fiscal and tax policies. Don and host Pamela Ritchie discuss the Bank of Canada's decision to hold the key interest rate at 5%. Don says the key thing now is how the BoC revises inflation. He's concerned with the zero-level output gap we're coming to where excess demand was slightly greater than supply, but how is nearing a zero gap. He believes we need to create slack in our economy. Right now, the economy is sitting right on its supply capacity so there is currently no slack to rely on. The housing market can help with this, but right now the market is showing resilience. Still lots of demand for houses and still alot of people coming into Canada looking for homes. Recorded on October 26, 2023.

Monetary policy is not done. That is the key takeaway from the April 12th Bank of Canada press conference following their decision to hold its key interest rate at 4.5%. This is the second consecutive pause for the Bank of Canada, and if you're in the camp that's hoping for, or projecting a rate cut later this year, Governor Tiff Macklem swiftly squashed that idea saying, that it “doesn't look like the most likely scenario.” Joining us today to unpack what the latest Bank of Canada decision means for growth, housing, and the real economy is renowned economist Don Drummond. Don has held several senior roles at the Federal Department of Finance where he was responsible for economic analysis, fiscal and tax policies. He later served as Senior Vice President and Chief Economist at TD Bank, and is currently Fellow-in-Residence at the C.D. Howe Institute. Don speaks with host Pamela Ritchie today, and he is not surprised by the Bank of Canada's decision, since they're far from getting inflation down to 2%. However, he says “pleasantly surprised” they communicated that further hikes are a possibility in the future, and put an end to the speculation that cuts could be coming in 2023. We also hear today from Don that globalisation, including companies lowering costs by moving production overseas, allowed us to keep inflation low with strong growth in the past, but a lot of that has run its course for the moment. Don believes 1.5-1.7% is a reasonable sustainable long-term growth rate. Recorded on April 13, 2023.

The Bank of Canada has raised their benchmark interest rate by a quarter of a percentage point to 4.5% - the highest it's been since 2007. This is the eighth consecutive interest rate hike for the Bank of Canada, but Governor Tiff Macklem signalled that it might be the last hike of the cycle. One of the most significant announcements by the Bank of Canada in their policy report is that they are confident in bringing inflation down to the target of 2% by 2024. We're joined today by renowned economist Don Drummond to unpack if this timeline is advantageous. Also, to see what this 25-basis point rate hike means for housing, markets, consumer spending and the real economy. Don has held several senior roles at the Federal Department of Finance, including Associate Deputy Minister, where he was responsible for economic analysis, fiscal and tax policies. He later served as Senior Vice President and Chief Economist at TD Bank and is currently Fellow-in-Residence at the C.D. Howe Institute. One key takeaway today that Don shares with host Pamela Ritchie are that inflation has peaked and should continue dropping under 6% year-over-year as we get into this spring. Stay tuned for all of this and more. Recorded on January 26, 2023.

I spoke to the Creator/publisher of Trombone Man: Ska's Fallen Genius comic book series! Dedicated to Don Drummond of The Skatalites!!

JJ and Matt are joined by Adam Reeves, creator of the forthcoming biography of The Skatalites' legendary trombonist Don Drummond. Drummond's creative genius helped shape ska music in its earliest days, but his life was short and marred by tragedy. We celebrate his music, learn about his extensive legacy and even consider a few albums for the Ska Canon.

Adam Reeves discusses his upcoming comic book series on the life of legendary Skatalites trombonist Don Drummond. PLUS Adam talks about his previous book on the unrivaled wealth of musical talent produced by Jamaica's Alpha Boys School and... a boxing, sound-system rocking Catholic nun who made a huge contribution to reggae and ska??

We're pleased to welcome a special guest on today's podcast - renowned economist Don Drummond, to discuss the health of Canada's economy. Don has held several senior roles at the Federal Department of Finance, including Associate Deputy Minister, where he was responsible for economic analysis, and fiscal and tax policies. Don later served as Senior Vice President and Chief Economist at TD Bank, and he is currently Chair of the Canadian Centre for the Study of Living Standards; Fellow-in-Residence at the C.D. Howe Institute and a member of the Expert Advisory Group to the Canadian Institute for Climate Choices. As the Canadian economy has changed rapidly over the last few years, investors continue to grapple with how to navigate its volatile landscape. With Canada's annual inflation rate sitting at 7%, pushing food and gas prices higher, how can policymakers slow inflation and grow Canada's economy? We pose these questions and more to Don today, with Don sharing his unique perspectives with host Pamela Ritchie. Recorded on October 5, 2022. At Fidelity, our mission is to build a better future for Canadian investors and help them stay ahead. We offer investors and institutions a range of innovative and trusted investment portfolios to help them reach their financial and life goals.
