Matt Lundy is The Globe and Mail's economics editor. As a reporter, Matt covered some of the biggest economic news from 2019 to 2024: the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic, four-decade-high inflation and breakneck population growth. Matt has written frequently about the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and its controversies; demographic and labour market trends, such as rising youth unemployment; and the absurdities of Canada's housing supply crisis, from Prince Edward Island to Red Deer, Alta.

An Arthur F. Burns Fellow in 2023, Matt reported from Berlin on Germany's economic stagnation, China's dominance in electric vehicles and a rags-to-riches soccer club. He's also reported from Cambodia.
