Olivier is an assistant professor in the Department of Management, Evaluation and Health Policy at the Université de Montréal. He obtained his doctorate from the Department of Political Science at McGill University in the fall of 2020 and was a postdoctoral researcher at Queen's University until September 2021. He is interested in the political economy of public policy in Canada and Europe. More specifically, his research focuses on the impact of fiscal austerity on the financing of the state and the healthcare system, as well as the difficulties faced by governments seeking to make long-term investments, particularly in public health. He has also analysed public opinion on tax policy and fiscal federalism, and the relationship between social policy and income inequality.
