The Empire Club of Canada Presents:
2020 U.S. Presidential Election Panel
In this virtual discussion, our panelists focus on the impacts that the 2020 U.S. Presidential election will have on the economies of Ontario and Canada.
How do the two presidential candidates, Donald Trump and Joe Biden, stack up on critical issues related to economic growth, transcontinental trade, and climate change? How will recent developments—from the COVID-19 shutdown, social unrest, trade war with China, and an economic recession—influence the outcome of this election? What opportunities could a Biden win potentially create for Ontario and Canada?
