Financial coercion can often be a hidden form of violence—leaving Indigenous women survivors with debt, damaged credit, and barriers to rebuilding their lives. In this episode of Sustainability Leaders, a panel presented by BMO's Office of Reconciliation in collaboration with Victim Services Toronto examines how financial systems are used as tools of control in trafficking and exploitation, and how those same systems can support recovery.Bringing together frontline, community, and financial institution perspectives, the discussion highlights the compounded barriers Indigenous women face and the importance of culturally grounded, trauma‑informed approaches. Listeners will hear how initiatives like the Reclaim program are helping to remove coerced debt, and rebuild trust in institutions—demonstrating how collaboration can align pathways for healing and long‑term stability.

Most building upgrades and retrofits stall not because of technology or economics but because owners lack clear data on their buildings, delaying decisions and raising costs. In this episode of Sustainability Leaders, Michael Torrance, Chief Sustainability Officer at BMO, speaks with Brodie Boland, Co‑Founder and CEO of Upgraid, about how better data and analytics can accelerate building upgrades and unlock emissions reductions. Boland explains why the market for building upgrades remains highly manual and inefficient, despite widely available and cost‑effective technologies such as heat pumps, lighting upgrades, and automation systems. The conversation explores how Upgraid uses machine learning and large datasets—from satellite imagery to permitting records—to create a detailed view of building systems and identify where upgrades make economic sense.

Bobbie Racette started with $300 at her kitchen table. Nine years later, she became the first Indigenous woman in Canada to build, scale, and sell a tech startup. In this episode - the first time Bobbie has dug into the details of the sale on a podcast - host Colleen O'Connell-Campbell sits down with the founder of Virtual Gurus, an AI-powered inclusive talent marketplace that matched underrepresented talent with businesses including Mastercard, Telus, and BMO. Bobbie shares the full arc: bootstrapping to $1.8 million in revenue before raising a cent, hearing 170 no's before closing a seed round, scaling through three funding rounds during COVID, becoming the first Indigenous woman in Canada to close a Series A, navigating founder fatigue, stepping down as CEO before the exit, and ultimately selling to a U.S. private equity firm that rolled Virtual Gurus into North America's largest virtual assistant platform - with the AI sold separately to a Calgary company. This is a conversation about what it takes to build something from nothing, what it costs personally, and what comes next when the mission is bigger than the transaction.   Key Takeaways:   Bobbie created Virtual Gurus in 2016 after being laid off in oil and gas and unable to find a job. She is Cree Métis, queer, and covered in tattoos - and nobody would hire her. The business started as a way to create a job for herself and evolved into a platform providing remote work to marginalized talent across Canada and the U.S.   She bootstrapped to approximately $1.8 million in annual revenue before seeking external funding. The seed round took over two years and 170 investor rejections before closing at $1.25 million. The Series A, two years later, was significantly easier.   Virtual Gurus scaled past $40 million in revenue and closed three funding rounds during COVID. Total capital raised was $14-20 million.   The exit was not originally planned. For the first four years, Bobbie intended to keep the company as a legacy business. The shift came around 2022 when the scale of the operation began to outpace the original mission. The board recognized that an acquisition was likely the best path forward.   The company was simultaneously pursuing a Series B and fielding acquisition offers - a dual-track process. The data room was already built for the fundraise, which accelerated due diligence to approximately five months. The acquisition by a U.S. private equity firm closed in November 2025.   The AI platform was sold separately to a Calgary-based company - effectively a double sale. The core business was rolled into the acquirer's larger virtual assistant platform.   Bobbie had stepped down from CEO to president in May 2025, with her COO becoming successor CEO. The successor stayed with the company through and after the acquisition. Bobbie's role during due diligence was primarily support - being available for the team mentally, emotionally, and strategically, while the finance team and executive team drove the process.   Founder fatigue and decision fatigue were real and significant. Bobbie emphasizes that founders need to talk about this more openly, and that boards and investors need to be supportive during those low periods rather than adding pressure.   Retention of employees during due diligence was one of the hardest parts. Bobbie's culture at Virtual Gurus was built on honesty and transparency, and not being able to tell her leadership team about the acquisition felt deeply uncomfortable.   Post-exit, Bobbie has retired her parents (her mother was her first angel investor, contributing her last $20,000), bought a new home, and is investing time and capital into the next generation. She is now an angel investor in five businesses - all founded by people from underserved communities, including Indigenous and LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs.   She has launched Tapwe (Cree for "truth"), a platform to support underserved founders with financial literacy, mentorship, AI-powered matching, and startup scaling resources. A documentary is in production. Her newsletter, The Fire Report, scaled to 4,000 subscribers almost immediately. She is also doing regular paid advisory sessions each week through her website.   Bobbie's story is a reminder that a cash-rich exit can be deeply values-driven, inclusive, and barrier-breaking - and still set you up for whatever comes next.

Then, in his early fifties, he had a wake-up call. It sent him to look under a rock he'd never lifted, where he found “an absolute cavern of issues.” The result is his sixth book, The Future is Grey: The Untapped Value of Age in the Workforce. Dan lays out the coming “bell to bulb” demographic inversion and the risks for organizations ignoring it. For individuals, he reframes the whole arc of a working life, from the language of generations (which he rejects as an ageist cognitive bias) to three universal career eras: Rivers, Rocks, and Rubies. That demographic inversion means experience will become more scarce and valuable. The through-line is don’t retire,  rewire instead. He shares stories of people who kept working or returned to work in a different way, which brings his concept of the “experience dividend” to life. ________________________ Bio Dan Pontefract is a renowned leadership and culture strategist, author, and keynote speaker with over two decades of experience in senior executive roles at companies such as SAP, TELUS, and Business Objects. Since then, he has worked with organizations globally, including Salesforce, Amgen, State of Tennessee, Nestlé, Canada Post, Autodesk, BMO, Government of Canada, Manulife, Nutrien, UBC, McGill University, Virgin Media O2, City of Toronto, among others. Dan has firsthand experience in turning leaders and corporate cultures into a competitive advantage. In addition to The Future of Work Is Grey, Dan has written five other books: WORK-LIFE BLOOM, LEAD. CARE. WIN., OPEN TO THINK, THE PURPOSE EFFECT, and FLAT ARMY garnering multiple awards including the Thinkers50 Top New Management Book and the Axiom Business Book Awards Gold Medal. Dan has also written for Forbes, Harvard Business Review, Leader to Leader, The Globe and Mail, Inc., among other outlets. Dan is a renowned keynote speaker who has presented at four TED events and delivered over 600 keynotes. He is an adjunct professor at the University of Victoria and has received over 25 personal awards. Dan’s career is interwoven with corporate and academic experience, coupled with an MBA, B.Ed, and multiple distinctions. Notably, Dan is listed on the Thinkers50 Radar, HR Weekly’s 100 Most Influential People in HR, PeopleHum’s Top 200 Thought Leaders to Follow, and Inc.

In this episode, we cover several major stories across AI, tech, Berkshire Hathaway, housing, and Canadian banks. We start with Anthropic reportedly moving closer to a potential IPO and what that could mean for the broader AI IPO race. We also break down the latest SpaceX IPO update, including its massive expected valuation and why investors appear to be valuing the company as much more than just a rocket launch business. We then look at Alphabet’s major equity raise and what it says about the rising cost of the AI infrastructure race. From there, we discuss Berkshire Hathaway’s planned acquisition of homebuilder Taylor Morrison and why the deal is notable under Greg Abel’s leadership. Finally, we wrap up with Canadian bank earnings, where results were better than feared, dividends were raised, capital markets helped, and credit remains the key risk to watch over the next few quarters.

In this episode, we kick things off by examining Amazon's aggressive push into urban micromobility with a ten-month e-cargo bike pilot program in Washington, D.C. deploying up to fifteen battery-powered bikes through independent delivery partners. This marks Amazon's second U.S. pilot following Brooklyn in 2024, and builds on a global network that delivered 170 million packages via micromobility in 2024 across more than forty-five cities worldwide. Meanwhile, a sobering reality check from the banking sector reveals that stronger freight rates haven't translated into healthier carrier balance sheets at BMO, one of the largest lenders to trucking. Gross impaired loans stood at $417.2 million U.S. dollars, while allowances for credit losses climbed to $86 million from $57 million a year earlier, signaling continued financial stress across the carrier segment despite recent market improvements. Finally, we explore how fleet technology provider Motive is betting that artificial intelligence can solve the industry's most persistent operational headaches with its new AI Dashcam Plus and Atlas assistant unveiled at Vision 26 in Nashville. The dashcam combines telematics and cameras into a single unit powered by a Qualcomm AI processor capable of running over thirty AI models simultaneously, while Atlas scans safety, compliance and fuel data to generate morning briefings and draft personalized driver messages, saving fleets an average of twenty hours per week.

One minute we're talking hibachi onion volcanoes and yum yum sauce rage… the next minute Riz is emotionally devastated because neighborhood kids apparently think he's the cranky old guy from every sitcom ever made. Welcome back to another completely normal episode of The Rizzuto Show — your favorite daily comedy show where chaos is not only expected, it's basically HR policy at this point.This episode starts with a beautiful weekend recap that somehow spirals into a full breakdown of suburban life. Lern and Tim hit hibachi for the annual “watch a stranger launch chicken at your face” tradition, Riz discovers his Blackstone betrayed him with a gas leak, and somehow the entire neighborhood has decided he's the villain from an HOA-themed horror movie. Meanwhile, Rafe absolutely refuses to let Riz recover emotionally after learning local middle schoolers refer to his house like it's the final boss level in a video game.Then things get even weirder when the show dives into the National Spelling Bee, where everyone quickly realizes they cannot spell basic words despite being fully grown adults with jobs and mortgages. “Diarrhea” nearly destroys the studio. “Separate” becomes a psychological warfare exercise. Lern fights bravely through America's most misspelled words while the rest of the gang contributes absolutely nothing helpful whatsoever.And because this is a daily comedy show, things naturally escalate into stories about teenagers shaving their heads for gas money, broccoli-haired dudes entering their buzzcut era, and parents realizing summer break may already be a mistake. Riz's son takes $50 to shave his head and immediately regrets everything, which honestly feels like the perfect metaphor for being young in 2026.Plus:The Three Song Challenge returns and listeners somehow struggle with bands literally everyone knowsA spelling bee breakdown nobody asked forTed Nugent tour updates because apparently that's still a thingReba McEntire appreciation hourDavid Lee Roth getting emotional talking about Van HalenMidwest brunch complaints escalate over iced coffee availabilityNeato toy hysteria sends grown adults into full Black Friday modeRafe delivers possibly the greatest Adirondack chair roast in radio historyRiz contemplates rebuilding his reputation with neighborhood children using bounce houses and hot dogsBasically, if you've ever wanted a comedy podcast that feels like your funniest friends yelling across a backyard barbecue while someone accidentally starts a grease fire nearby… congratulations.

Today's episode is going to be especially useful if you're a Canadian DIY investor and you want to build an optimized, passive, low-cost portfolio, but you still have questions about some of the practical details. For example, should you just buy one all-in-one asset allocation ETF, or is there a benefit to buying the underlying ETFs individually? How much should you care about ETF trading volume? What does liquidity actually mean when we're talking about ETFs? Should you use market orders or limit orders when buying ETFs? And if you're an income-focused investor, what are the pros and cons of building your portfolio around dividends? We also get into the active versus passive investing debate, why it's so difficult for stock pickers and active managers to consistently beat the market over the long term, and how investors can think about risk when comparing traditional bonds with things like low-volatility ETFs. Also as a Build Wealth Canada listener, we have a brand new free issue of Canadian MoneySaver magazine for you. The issue focuses specifically on ETFs here in Canada, I wrote an article for it as well, and you can get the digital version of the entire magazine for free by going to buildwealthcanada.ca/magazine. Our Guests: To help answer these questions, we have two great guests joining us. First, we have Chris White from Canadian MoneySaver Magazine. Chris is also the Head of Research at 5i Research, and you may have heard him on CBC Radio or BNN Bloomberg. We're also joined by popular returning guest Danielle Neziol, who is a very experienced and passionate educator when it comes to DIY investing here in Canada, especially index investing using low-cost ETFs, which, by the way, is literally how I invest all of my own money. Danielle is one of the hosts of the ETF Market Insights YouTube channel, she's a frequent speaker at industry events across Canada, and she works at BMO ETFs, one of the largest ETF providers in Canada so she incredible access to some of the best education, best practices, and resources when it comes to DIY investing here in Canada.

Food businesses are discovering that transparency and better data can strengthen food supply chains, reduce risk, and support growth at the same time. In this episode of Sustainability Leaders, Emily Hobbs, Senior Advisor at the BMO Climate Institute, speaks with Anya Doherty, founder of Foodsteps, about how improved measurement and traceability are helping food companies navigate rising volatility, complex global sourcing, and increasing scrutiny from customers and stakeholders.   Doherty shares real‑world examples of how food brands, retailers, and restaurants are using data to reformulate recipes, source ingredients differently, and partner with regenerative producers to improve resilience across their supply chains. From tracing highly fragmented global food systems to validating lower‑impact farming practices, the conversation explores why food price volatility, climate risk, and supply‑chain resilience are increasingly interconnected—and how businesses that invest in better data today are positioning themselves for long‑term competitiveness.

In my 100th episode, Joel Prussky, BMO's OIS and cross-currency trader, joins me to discuss the current macro environment, with a focus on inflation and what that means for the Bank of Canada.

In this episode, we kick things off by examining a massive technology leap in truck terminal automation as Outpost unveils its second-generation gate kiosk that deploys in just one day and slashes gate operating costs by up to seventy percent. This marks a seismic shift from traditional automated gate systems that require months of installation work, and the Austin-based company now processes more than three million gate events annually across more than thirty terminals while replacing manual staffing that typically costs twenty-five thousand dollars or more per gate monthly. Next, we explore a major shakeup in the financial sector that will fundamentally reshape trucking lending as BMO's massive transportation lending business is being sold to private equity firm Stonepeak while the bank retains a minority nineteen point nine percent stake. BMO's transportation group is believed to be one of the largest lenders in the trucking business, with a book of business totaling twelve point four two billion Canadian dollars, and the timing has raised eyebrows as the sales process began near the bottom of the freight market's years-long slump while markets are now rapidly strengthening. Finally, we cover a strategic leadership move in the intermodal sector as Consolidated Chassis Management appoints Tara Pellicori as its first-ever general counsel to oversee all legal, regulatory, and compliance matters. Pellicori, who most recently served as director and associate general counsel at Subaru of America, will partner closely with leadership to support aggressive expansion and ensure the Rockaway, New Jersey-based company grows responsibly while delivering value to partners and customers across the intermodal ecosystem.

Running one of the world's largest logistics networks requires managing fuel use, infrastructure constraints, customer expectations, and long‑term operational risk at scale. In this episode of Sustainability Leaders, Michael Torrance, Chief Sustainability Officer at BMO, speaks with Andreas Mündel, Senior Vice President of Strategy and Operations at DHL Group, about how sustainability is shaping the company's strategy, operations, and competitive positioning. The conversation explores why sustainable aviation fuel is critical to DHL's future, how the company has built one of the world's largest electric delivery fleets, and why infrastructure availability—such as power and charging capacity—has become a key operational constraint. Listeners will also hear how customer demand for lower‑impact logistics services is driving new product offerings, how sustainability is embedded into governance and incentives, and why DHL views these efforts as essential to long‑term competitiveness rather than a compliance exercise.

LAFC and Colorado play to a 0-0 draw at BMO behind another clean sheet from Hugo Lloris. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

A deeply dull, frustrating 0-0 draw with the Colorado Rapids; one of the most boring, nerdy matches we've ever seen at BMO. No injuries, the return of Aaron Long and Stephen Eustáquio, and Hugo Lloris continuing his stint as a human brick wall are all we'd like to remember from this one. The schedule has pounded us and we played like it. Unfortunately we've got a lot of games, and big games, looking right at us in the coming days and weeks. The season rollercoaster has officially put us on the first big turn heading into Minnesota, then the CONCACAF Champions Cup Semis.

In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, we break down the latest data on Canadian household wealth and what it reveals about the growing divide between those benefiting from rising asset prices and those falling behind. We discuss household debt levels, savings rates, real estate stagnation, and why many Canadians may be feeling more financial pressure than headline numbers suggest. We also dive into BMO’s annual retirement survey, where Canadians now believe they need $1.7 million to retire. We unpack why these figures can be misleading, how retirement needs vary dramatically across provinces, and the key factors that actually determine how much you’ll need to stop working. Finally, we discuss Wealthsimple’s new partnership with X (formerly Twitter), allowing users to trade stocks directly through the platform. We explore what this means for retail investors, the gamification of investing, and whether making stock trading easier is ultimately helping—or hurting—long-term investors.
