About

TIFA’s most provocative conversation series returns, bringing together authors and industry experts to examine the culture and politics that shape the world around us and the books we read. Our daily lives in 2023 were shaped by inflation rises and a cost-of-living crisis. Why was this such a shock and why did our governments struggled to respond? In A Map of the New Normal, Canadian economist and bestselling author, Jeff Rubin, warns this may be the first of many consequences due to the aftereffects of pandemic spending meeting a perfect storm of war, supply-chain disruption, geopolitical realignment and energy scarcity. Hear the world-leading expert on trade and energy offer insight and understanding on how we navigate the present and safeguard a fluctuating future.
