For the first episode of The Jay Show, Jay discusses a number of
contemporary issues with the
Right Honourable Stephen Harper. As Canada’s 22nd Prime
Minister, Mr. Harper led Canada’s quick recovery from the 2008
depression, and Jay draws on that expertise to shed light on a
possible future. Jay seeks his perspective on a number of
topics, including the most important decisions/policies he put
in place to help Canada make the most of the growth in resource
prices through his tenure as PM. Mr. Harper also offers his
thoughts on the commodities market, and the end game with our
runaway government debts and the potential of a sovereign debt
crisis. They deliberate, if the USD is sustainable as the world
reserve currency, what happens to the US if they were to lose
Reserve currency status, and what would replace it? Jay also gets
Mr. Harper’s thoughts on Central Bank Issued Digital Currencies and
the economic forces that have been tipping the world toward
populism. Moreover, they discuss the extent to which major
technology companies (Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc.) are
responsible for the growing divide and unrest, and the industries
Mr. Harper feels will provide the most opportunities for young
entrepreneurs.   To stay up to date with Mr. Harper, you
