Sinopse
Call the Question welcomes Carole James - BC's Deputy Premier and Minister of Finance until her recent retirement from politics in October 2020 - to our final podcast of the year. We ask Carole about the challenges ahead for the BC government as it faces significant budget deficits in the next few years, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. We talk about how, as finance minister, she sought to balance fiscal responsibility with the needs of people and the environment, and about the achievements she's most proud of during her tenure. And, we examine the barriers women encounter when they take on political and economic leadership roles, and talk about the women in her life who inspired her to chart her own path to success. Note: This podcast was recorded on December 7, 2020.
