Matt Mitchell

Join Matt Mitchell, a Senior Fellow at the Fraser Institute, as he explores alarming global trends in freedom measurement. Nine in ten people are experiencing declines in personal, economic, and civil liberties, with populism and pandemic measures causing chaos. Discover how well-being is linked to freedom, and why documenting these changes matters. The U.S. drop to 15th in the Human Freedom Index sparks discussion about market impacts on personal liberties. They also examine the ripple effects of restrictions and the crucial role of economic freedoms in promoting better societies.
