Friday Focus provides listeners with a focused, half-hour masterclass on the big issues, events and trends driving the news and current events. The show features Janice Gross Stein, the founding director of the Munk School of Global Affairs and bestselling author, in conversation with Rudyard Griffiths, Chair and moderator of the Munk Debates. Rudyard and Janice open today's show with the fast developing and worrying situation between India and Pakistan. What started in the long disputed territory of Kashmir has expanded into strikes along the border shared by these two nuclear powers. As Janice argues, when the global policeman (the U.S.) retires from the job local leaders take advantage of the vacuum in leadership. In the second half of the show Rudyard and Janice turn to this week's meeting between Mark Carney and Donald Trump. Both had mixed feelings about the meeting: while it was friendly and relaxed in nature, and we are in a better place than we were when Trudeau was negotiating with Trump, there were no concrete outcomes from this meeting that benefit Canadians. Ultimately, many of our most important sectors are facing a massive slowdown because the Trump administration is not interested in the core products like cars and steel that were once central to the Canada-US relationship.

Will Mark Carney be the man to make a deal with Donald Trump? is it possible while navigating the growing fault lines dividing our country? Sean Speer explains.

Mayor Tom cuts the ribbon on a new fire station; the 100 men vs. 1 gorilla debate that has taken social media by storm; is Trump planning a military parade in his honor on his birthday, or is there more to the story; for some reason, Indiana's Lt. Governor Micah Beckwith decided to take up a Three-Fifths Compromise debate; LOCPod's Canadian correspondent Jesse Hirsh talks with Tom and Kevin about why Mark Carney winning Canada's recent election was a referendum on Trump, why there's still hope for Canada-US relations, and more.

An encore of an interview with celebrated Canadian military historian Tim Cook about his latest book hitting the shelves.

In Episode 64, Frank covers the Canadian election from top to bottom, including addressing unflattering comments about Canada as a country from the leader of the Bloc Quebecois and the Premier of Alberta. Frank addresses each of the major platform concerns of Western leaders as it relates to natural resource and pipeline development including Bill C69, the energy cap and industrial carbon tax.  He provides a 101 lesson on equalization payments, a source of frustration for Western provinces who typically are not recipients of transfers from the Federal Government by virtue of low tax bases and resource reserves.  The episode then shifts to Canada-US relations, where Frank addresses President Trump's interference with the Canadian election and expectations for renegotiation of a trilateral trade agreement, which he suggests Canada reluctantly pursue, but with eyes wide open and asks from the north side of the border.  He finishes with an update on the war in Ukraine and, of course, laments the state of play of his beloved Toronto Blue Jays. This podcast was recorded on April 29, 2025. Chapter Headings: 00:29 - First Take on Election Results and Future of Unelected Pierre Poilievre09:34 - Regional Interests Take Centre Stage13:17 - Addressing Western Canadian Demands28:17 - Equalization Payments36:26 - Trump and the Canadian Election42:50 - The 90 Day Tariff Negotiation48:00 - Back and Forth on Russia-Ukraine  For relevant disclosures, visit: tdsecurities.com/ca/en/legal#PodcastDisclosure.

Friday Focus provides listeners with a focused, half-hour masterclass on the big issues, events and trends driving the news and current events. The show features Janice Gross Stein, the founding director of the Munk School of Global Affairs and bestselling author, in conversation with Rudyard Griffiths, Chair and moderator of the Munk Debates. Rudyard and Janice open the show with the Ukraine-Russia ceasefire deal put forward by the Trump administration that would recognize Crimea as a Russian territory, deny NATO membership to Ukraine, and give Moscow control of 20 percent of Ukrainian territory in the Donbas region. This is a huge capitulation to Russia that doesn't provide any security guarantees to Ukraine. So why is Putin dragging his feet in accepting these generous terms? In the second part of the show Rudyard and Janice reflect on the Canadian election campaign which will come to a close on Monday as voters head to the polls. Because so much focus has been paid to the Canada-US relationship, so many other important issues relating to the economy, productivity, immigration and housing have been ignored. Have we overreacted to the Trump threat while failing to address the very real challenges at home?

To burner phone or not to burner phone? The current debate on social media amid heightened searches of personal electronic devices by US immigration officers. Combined with new requirements for Canadians travelling to the US, such as mandatory registration with the American government for a 30+ day stay, as well as frightening headlines of travelers being detained at the border - Canadians are rightfully turned off from the US. But for those who don't have the choice to opt out of travel, what can they expect, and are they safe? Host Maria Kestane speaks to Frédéric Dimanche, Director and Professor of the Ted Rogers School of Hospitality and Tourism, about what the current climate of Canada-US travel safety looks like, and what Canadians should expect when - or *if* - they head south.We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes.

Andrew Coyne is a Globe and Mail Columnist and one of Canada’s most trusted commentators. He joins us for a far reaching conversation about how the Liberal Party went from having no hope in this election to being the frontrunner, and how the widespread anti-elite sentiment in Canada has been affected by erratic policies south of the border. Andrew and Rudyard then turn their attention to the man pushing these disastrous policies: Donald Trump. Are we witnessing a decline in mental health and increase in erratic behaviour due to his advanced age?

Once a favoured travel hotspot for Canadians looking to escape the cold or stock up on American-only goodies, now stands as a no-go zone for many travellers north of the border amid annexation threats and unwarranted tariffs from US President Donald Trump. New data shows a downtrend for Canadians heading south of the border for leisure trips for this travel season compared to previous years, but what exactly do the numbers mean and will the trend continue to head south (instead of Canadians) for years to come? Host Gurdeep Ahluwalia speaks with Head of Public Relations and Communications for Flight Centre Travel Group Canada, Amra Durakovic, about where things stand between two countries once known for their close travel ties as their dwindling relationship continues on the downward spiral.We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes.

Newsrooms, dinner tables and just about everyone in between woke up on the edge of their seats the morning of April 2 - the day US President Donald Trump dubbed 'liberation day' - but heading to bed, it was more of an uneasy feeling of 'now what?'. A few days later as the dust has started to settle, the confusion and ambiguity, however, has not. Although Canada was not on Trump's exhaustive reciprocal tariff list, 25% tariffs on foreign-made vehicles exported to America did apply to Canadian cars. Prime Minister Mark Carney struck back with 25% retaliatory tariffs on foreign-made vehicles imported to Canada, but the lines remained blurred with the Canada-US trade future. What tariffs are in place, what aren't, how many jobs are on the line, how much more expensive will cars be, and whose economy will be feeling the effects the worst? Host Cormac Mac Sweeney speaks with Principal Economist with the Conference Board of Canada, Richard Forbes gets to the bottom of Trump's latest tariff announcement.

Federal Conservative Party Leader, Pierre Poilievre, was positioned for a landslide win over the federal liberals, but incomes a new rival leader, and voters seem to have no problem moving the pendulum - and fast! Recent leaks from inside the campaign paint a chaotic picture for the federal tories just one month out from when Canadians head to the polls, and with the unpredictability of a diminishing Canada-US relationship, the concerns that shape the big ballot question come April 28 no longer mirror what they used to be just a few weeks ago. Host David Smith speaks to CEO of Abacus Data, David Coletto, about what's driving the pre-polling tank for a party once destined for victory, as well as what's grabbing the attention of Canadian voters in a time of economic despair, a pending North American trade war, and a sudden burst of Canadian patriotism.

In this episode of Five Questions, Five Answers, Birgit Matthiesen and Ryan Greer of the Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters (CME) discuss the current challenges facing Canadian manufacturers due to impending US tariffs and the broader implications for the bilateral trade relationship. Ryan emphasizes the interconnectedness of Canadian and US manufacturing sectors and the potential negative impacts of tariffs on both sides of the border. He also provides insight into a possible retaliation strategy by Ottawa and shares his views on the future of North American manufacturing. Takeaways US tariffs pose significant challenges for Canadian manufacturers and their US customers. Retaliation strategies are being considered by the Canadian government. The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement remains vital for trade relations between Canada and the United States. Past the imposition of tariffs, reducing regulatory burdens is essential for competitiveness. The future of manufacturing is uncertain but requires deeper integration. Lesson to emerge is that crisis can lead to opportunities for the NA manufacturing sector.

The spectre of trade wars looms as social media announced tariffs threaten to disrupt the Canada-US relationship, but a powerful alternative to the traditional tit-for-tat approach exists. Rather than punishing ourselves with counter-tariffs that make goods more expensive for Canadians, we could follow Brazil's remarkably successful strategy from 2010.When faced with harmful US cotton subsidies, Brazil obtained WTO approval to suspend American intellectual property protections on pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and entertainment. The threat alone was so effective that the US  capitulated, passing corrective legislation and paying compensation. This approach targeted America's post-industrial economy, where true value lies not in manufacturing but in patents, copyrights, and intellectual property.Looking at our trade history, intellectual property protection forms the cornerstone of agreements from NAFTA to the 2020 USMCA. These agreements dramatically restricted Canada's generic drug industry, extended copyright terms to 75+ years, protected US semiconductor designs, and created digital IP frameworks that primarily benefit American companies. Since these protections exist because of the very agreements being violated through tariff threats, suspending them represents a logical and asymmetrical response.The beauty of this approach is its win-win nature for Canada – consumers would save substantially on medications, technology, and entertainment while applying maximum pressure to US interests. When auto executives warned of catastrophic consequences from parts tariffs, Trump backed down within 24 hours. Imagine the lobbying pressure from every pharmaceutical, technology, and entertainment giant facing the loss of their international intellectual property protections. As our legal expert notes, this approach has proven effectiveness has legal standing through WTO processes, and would target "most of the US economy" – making it a strategic option Canada shouldn't overlook as trade tensions escalate.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed.

In this special additional solo episode, Mark reflects on the term "Elbows up!" and recent events in Canada/US relations and the tariffs being needlessly opposed based on completely fabricated issues. He also discusses the disease of division that is so prominent today, and shares a clip of Canadian Prime Minster Justin Trudeau from a press conference held on March 4, 2025.   Links of Interest: Buy Me a Coffee Patreon for Stark Reflections How to Access Patreon RSS Feeds Mark's YouTube channel Mark's Stark Reflections on Writing & Publishing Newsletter (Signup) An Author's Guide to Working With Bookstores and Libraries The Relaxed Author Buy eBook Direct Buy Audiobook Direct Publishing Pitfalls for Authors An Author's Guide to Working with Libraries & Bookstores Wide for the Win Mark's Canadian Werewolf Books This Time Around (Short Story) A Canadian Werewolf in New York Stowe Away (Novella) Fear and Longing in Los Angeles Fright Nights, Big City Lover's Moon Hex and the City Only Monsters in the Building The Canadian Mounted: A Trivia Guide to Planes, Trains and Automobiles Yippee Ki-Yay Motherf*cker: A Trivia Guide to Die Hard Merry Christmas!

Friday Focus provides listeners with a focused, half-hour masterclass on the big issues, events and trends driving the news and current events. The show features Janice Gross Stein, the founding director of the Munk School of Global Affairs and bestselling author, in conversation with Rudyard Griffiths, Chair and moderator of the Munk Debates. The following is a sample of the Munk Debates’ weekly current affairs podcast, Friday Focus. Rudyard and Janice start the show talking about President Trump reversing course on tariffs at the last minute. While some say this was all a negotiating tactic by creating confusion to get concessions from Canada and Mexico, others are more concerned that this is all a pretense to Trump 2.0's territorial ambitions. Moreover, the damage done to the Canada-US bilateral relationship will have huge long term consequences. In the second half of the show Rudyard and Janice turn their attention to Trump's shocking plan for Gaza, reimagined as the Riviera on the Mediterranean as the Palestinians are relocated against their will. This plan, so utterly lacking in credibility, is an affront to Trump's entire voting base which wants to retreat from the world, not spend money on developing it. Even so, when a President says something, no matter how outrageous, there are consequences.

Canadian donors receive a charitable tax receipt. This podcast is a project of the Munk Debates, a Canadian charitable organization dedicated to fostering civil and substantive public dialogue.

Greg Marchildon speaks with Asa McKercher about his book, Building a Special Relationship: Canada-US Relations in the Eisenhower Era, 1953–61.

Asa McKercher is an associate professor at St. Francis Xavier University, a senior fellow at the Bill Graham Centre, and a fellow at Queen's Centre for International and Defence Policy. He is editor-in-chief of International Journal and the author of several books, including Canada and the World since 1867 and Camelot and Canada: Canadian-American Relations in the Kennedy Era. Michael D. Stevenson is a history professor at Lakehead University. He authored Canada's Greatest Wartime Muddle: National Selective Service and the Mobilization of Human Resources during WWII and edited the 1957–58 volumes of Documents on Canadian External Relations.
