'Based Banker' Brett Oland on how Government Money Printing is Stealing Humanity's Productive Value

We were thrilled to be able to sit down with Bow Valley Credit Union CEO Brett Oland (the "Based Banker" as Mike has dubbed him) to chat about a number of economic and monetary policy issues currently affecting most of the Western world. We discuss inflationary spending, how immigration and social policy artificially drives up costs of living, the scourge of UBI and CBDCs, and what our most effective responses as consumers, and potentially as an independent Alberta could look like.
