Will Canada's GST holiday work?

Comedian v Economist

Adam and Thomas delve into the current economic landscape, focusing on inflation trends, the recent GST holiday announced in Canada, and its implications for consumers and businesses. They discuss the ongoing challenges posed by energy prices and the effectiveness of government measures to alleviate cost of living pressures. They also discuss the significant decline in crime rates across various categories in the US, including domestic violence and carjacking, while noting a concerning rise in shoplifting. They explore the implications of these trends on society and the economy. The conversation then shifts to the diamond market, focusing on the rapid rise of lab-grown diamonds, their cost-effectiveness, and the potential impact on traditional diamond sales.
