On the Feb. 28 episode: City budgets and revenue tools with Terra Gillespie. For some of us – okay, maybe just Matt – city budget debates are events of monumental occasions, on par with the Super Bowl.

She tells us why gender equity must be a critical part of city budgeting. We also nerd-out a bit and talk about our favourite revenue tools, along with the challenges that come with getting politicians to embrace them.
