With the erratic threats of Trump's tariffs, many Canadians are switching to "Made in Canada" products. But in today's market, what does "Made in Canada" mean? How much of anything we buy is made right here in our country? Despite the highly integrated economy that Canada and the U.S. share, can we become more self-reliant by shifting all production to our home and native land? Jim Stanford, economist and Director of the Centre for Future Work; Vass Bednar, executive director of the Master of Public Policy Program at McMaster University and host of the "Lately" podcast; and Jim Hinton, owner and founder of Own Innovation and a Senior Fellow at CIGI, the Centre for International Governance Innovation, join Steve Paikin to discuss what it takes to make more in Canada.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this unique podcast experience, the Best Coast Political Podcast teams with the Capital Daily to bring listeners a revealing look at one of B.C.'s most beguiling towns: Langford. Recently voted the most liveable city in Canada, it's often criticized for its endless sprawl, bland suburban geographies, and stagnant local government. How to square the circle? The expert panel includes Aaron Guillen (Capital Daily), Maleea Acker (Univ. of Victoria and Focus Magazine), and Jeremy Caradonna and Matt Dell (Best Coast Political Podcast). The panel takes on numerous topics in this long-form discussion, including the sketchy origins of Bear Mountain and its subsequent bankruptcy, the Danbrook One tower fiasco, the destruction of rare Garry Oak ecosystems in the area, the lack of urban planning, perceived conflicts of interest between industry and local politicians, and the secretive, closed-door nature of local governance. Stew Young has been mayor for nearly 30 years, ever since the town incorporated in the early 90s, and there has been little turnover on the city council over the years. So what is Langford's true identity? Does it have a 'democracy deficit? And where does it go from here?

We all know climate change is a big problem. But do we really understand the problem? Like, how much do we emit? Who emits it? How much do we need to reduce emissions if we don't want to cook ourselves? And what are the most promising technologies and clean energy sources we should focus our resources developing?Basically, how do we fix this thing?These are the questions I had, and fortunately Robin Edger — the Executive Director of Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment — had the answers.

The Roy Green Show Podcast - According to polling released yesterday, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney is the third most popular Premier in Canada after Francois Legault of Quebec and Scott Moe pf Saskatchewan. To start the podcast, Premier Jason Kenney and Roy discuss the conflict between Alberta and B.C., pipelines and Jagmeet Singh's argument that Quebec must have the right to veto pipelines crossing the province, and climate change as an issue of public attention. They also touch on Premier Kenney's view of Justin Trudeau appearing in blackface and brownface. Guest:  Jason Kenney, Premier of Alberta - Following Trump's Whistleblower's complaint, the Democratic Party is launching an official impeachment inquiry.  Is President Trump in danger of impeachment and perhaps removal of office over his call and interactions with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky? Or is this a political witch-hunt since the Whistleblower is acting on second-hand information? Guest: Fred Fleitz, Director of the Center for Security Policy in D.C.,  Served in 2018 as deputy assistant to President Trump and chief of staff to national security adviser John Bolton, 25 years with the CIA and DIA and chief of staff for the NSA. - Ipsos polling for Global News this week found the Conservatives gaining a 4-point lead as Liberals slip in the wake of Trudeau's blackface scandal. Meanwhile, another poll showed that climate change ranks as issue #3 for Canadians, behind health care and affordability. 1 in 3 Canadians wants climate change to be fought even if it hurts the Canadian economy. But half don't want to pay an extra cent. Guest:  Sean Simpson. VP. IPSOS Canada - Montreal Economic Institute poll show that Quebecers by 66% majority prefer Western Canadian oil, and 45% of Quebecers prefer pipelines over shipping oil by tanker trucks (14%), rail (13%), or ship (9%). And 79% of Quebecers who voted for Premier Francois Legault and his CAQ government prefer Western Canadian oil over any other sources. This should be raised during the 2019 federal election campaign. Guest:  Germain Belzile, Montreal Economic Institute - There are still questions remaining, after the RCMP released their report on B.C. teen killers Bryer Schmegelsky & Kam McLeod.
