My guest was Google employee No. 2 in Canada, one of the first 500 in the entire company - Eric Morris, Head of Retail for Google joins me for an exclusive live and interactive interview where we search for answers to the state of retail, how consumers are interacting online, and what’s next for retailers from the Google Tickle-Trunk. Next we head to the East Coast for a feature interview with RCC’s Atlantic director Jim Cormier coming to us from Halifax. We discuss the top issues for retailers located in or operating in the region, as Jim works with the four provincial governments to work together and align rules and regulations for retailers across the region including environmental stewardship programs, plastic bags as low hanging fruit and overall regulatory harmonization.
