This week’s Hub Dialogue roundtable focuses on two big issues. The first is the current state of the Conservative Party of Canada’s leadership. How are the different campaigns performing thus far?

Next, the roundtable welcomes serial entrepreneur and Hub contributor Philip Deck to discuss his recent commentary for The Hub on digital currencies. Should the Bank of Canada establish a digital currency? How would it work? What would be its benefits? And how important is trust in determining it success?

This week’s Hub Dialogue roundtable focuses entirely on the Conservative leadership race. First, what is the field of play and who are the candidates that we should be keeping an eye on?

The Hub Dialogues feature The Hub's editor-at-large, Sean Speer, in conversation with leading entrepreneurs, policymakers, scholars, and thinkers on the issues and challenges that will shape Canada's future at home and abroad.

This week’s Hub Dialogue roundtable focuses on two issues making headlines. Why has the public and political response on the part of Western nations been so fast and furious with regards to both punishing the regime of Vladimir Putin economically as well as taking unprecedented steps to assist the embattled Ukraine government through arms transfers? Are we witnessing something genuinely new in terms of public perceptions of the threat of authoritarianism to liberal international order? Next, what are Canadians to make of the state of play of the nascent Conversative leadership race? Is this a party that is about to radically reposition itself on the political map? Or, are persistent challenges at the federal ballot box likely to blunt efforts to take the Conversative party in more populist direction? The roundtable digs into who the possible leadership candidates are and what do they stand for.
