I had the distinct pleasure of sharing an hour and some with Greg Foss - the objective was to get to understand the merits of Bitcoin for the workplace. In Greg's words 60/40 is dead - so what can employers do to assist employees with their long term savings. If you are an advisor in the benefits and pensions space or if you are an HR practitioner/Employer - listen in! The time has come to start taking Bitcoin seriously and get up to speed on it's merits and place in the financial landscape. (note - NOT all "crypto" ... just Bitcoin).

Joe Blomeley - appreciate your accessibility and fresh approach to healthcare, funding coordination, roles of Government and Private Sectors, healthcare delivery and healthcare issues for 2022. Especially your statistics related to COVID and the associated deterioration of Canadians’ Mental Health … an aspect of the pandemic that does not get the political and media attention it deserves.

This is an important conversation for all of us. Benefits advisors, employers, group insurers, plan members and Canadians in general.

First of all who would think that a book about Generic Drugs would be a captivating read?! But it really is. It reads like an international espionage thriller.... but layer on top of that chilling corporate malfeasance in drug manufacturing, a total lack of regard for the consumers those companies serve (and worse their targetting of certain areas of the world with a special disregard) and the disastrous outcomes in healthcare for individuals - this book revelas a frightening corruption that can impact each and everyone of us - and likely has impacted someone each of us knows.

Terrific jouralism and great writing Katherine Eban ... must read for everyone who wants to have some insight into the reasons they should be smart shoppers when it comes to filling their prescriptions.

The source of the conversation is Katherine's New York Times best seller - Bottle of Lies. From corporate malfeasance to efficacy of bioequivalence - this discussion covers a sweeping subject. This podcast has real relevance for health insurers...
