The News Forum | Canadian Innovators: Host Catherine Swift is joined by law professor Bruce Pardy to discuss the concept of “state singularity”. A metaphor, borrowed from physics, Prof. Pardy describes “state singularity” as the moment when the state and society become indistinguishable.
In this increasingly eminent scenario, it becomes difficult to differentiate between the actions of the state and the society it governs. We can see how the influence of the state has increased to dominate all aspects of life, business, and public policy, leaving little room for voluntary organizations to function effectively. In the context of “Canadian Innovators,” the expansion of state power makes it challenging to open and run businesses, as the state, under the guise of caring for society, imposes numerous regulations and controls. Entrepreneurs, who should be seen as leaders to “better pastures,” are instead treated as enemies to be contained. This conversation is spread over two bite-sized parts.
