Podcasts about Chrystia Freeland

In this insightful episode of The Food Professor podcast, hosts Michael LeBlanc and Sylvain Charlebois explore Canadian food politics and industry developments before sitting down with Adam Grogan, President and COO of Maple Leaf Foods, for a revealing conversation about the company's evolution and future.The episode begins with a discussion of Canada's new Liberal cabinet, focusing on Heath MacDonald from PEI as the new Agriculture Minister replacing Kody Blois. The hosts express mixed feelings about the appointment, noting MacDonald's farming background as a positive sign. They also analyze Chrystia Freeland's surprising role as Transportation Minister and its implications for agricultural logistics.Another highlight includes the new interprovincial trade deal between Manitoba and Ontario, which aims to reduce trade barriers. Charlebois emphasizes that such provincial initiatives will drive meaningful change, not federal promises, potentially opening new markets for small and medium-sized food producers currently limited by licensing requirements.The hosts then discuss American food inflation dropping from 3% to 2.8% despite tariffs, questioning why U.S. consumers haven't experienced price increases despite trade restrictions with Canada, China, and Mexico.The feature interview with Adam Grogan reveals Maple Leaf Foods' transformation beyond being merely a protein company. Grogan describes the organization as a "CPG powerhouse" with numerous brands, including Tender Flake lard, Sunrise, Larson, Burns, Mitchell's, Schneiders, Prime poultry, and Greenfield natural meats. He also discusses their $1 billion investment in processing facilities in London, Winnipeg, and Brampton to enhance global competitiveness.On plant-based proteins, Grogan shares a nuanced perspective, noting they are "the largest share of refrigerated plant protein in North America" with three dedicated brands and manufacturing plants. While acknowledging recent market challenges, he remains optimistic about the future, citing changing consumer preferences and Canada's position as the world's largest producer of pulses and legumes.Sustainability forms a cornerstone of their strategy, with Grogan stating, "Animal production is one of the largest emitters of carbon anywhere, and big food needs to do more." Maple Leaf Foods was the first Canadian company to align with science-based targets from the Paris Agreement and the first major food company to declare carbon neutrality in 2019.The episode concludes with discussions on Newfoundland's ineffective sugar tax, which has collected $30 million without changing consumption patterns, and the controversial government-funded Aspire Foods cricket farm in London that recently entered receivership despite $9 million in public funding.This episode offers valuable insights into Canadian food policy, sustainable protein production, and the evolution of one of Canada's largest food companies under progressive leadership.

To understand President Trump's position on Canada, you have to go back to the 2016 election and President Trump's position on the NAFTA renegotiation.  If you did not follow the subsequent USMCA process, this might be the ah-ha moment you need to understand Trump's strategy. During the 2016 election President Trump repeatedly said he wanted to renegotiate NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement.  Both Canada and Mexico were reluctant to open the trade agreement to revision, but ultimately President Trump had the authority and support from an election victory to do exactly that. In order to understand the issue, you must remember President Trump, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer each agreed the NAFTA agreement was fraught with problems and was best addressed by scrapping it and creating two seperate bilateral trade agreements. One between the USA and Mexico, and one between the USA and Canada. In the decades that preceded the 2017 push to redo the trade pact, Canada had restructured their economy to: (1) align with progressive climate change; and (2) take advantage of the NAFTA loophole.  The Canadian government did not want to reengage in a new trade agreement. Canada has deindustrialized much of their manufacturing base to support the ‘environmental' aspirations of their progressive politicians.  Instead, Canada became an importer of component goods where companies then assembled those imports into finished products to enter the U.S. market without tariffs.  Working with Chinese manufacturing companies, Canada exploited the NAFTA loophole. Justin Trudeau was strongly against renegotiating NAFTA, and stated he and Chrystia Freeland would not support reopening the trade agreement.  President Trump didn't care about the position of Canada and was going forward.  Trudeau said he would not support it.  Trump focused on the first bilateral trade agreement with Mexico. When the U.S. and Mexico had agreed to terms of the new trade deal and 80% of the agreement was finished, representatives from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce informed Trudeau that his position was weak and if the U.S. and Mexico inked their deal, Canada would be shut out. The key points to remember are: (1) Trump, Ross and Lighthizer would prefer two separate bilateral trade agreements because the U.S. import/export dynamic was entirely different between Mexico and Canada.

“You have an autocrat president next door who is threatening annexation of your country. And it's not a joke anymore..”In December of 2024, former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau resigned with an approval rating of just 22%. His centre-left Canadian Liberal Party had been in government for the last ten years - through COVID-19, the cost of living crisis, housing shortages, and party in-fighting. Canada was ready for a change.And yet, with the federal election mere weeks away, Liberals are once again the popular favourite.

Une page se tourne au Canada, celle des deux mandats de Justin Trudeau à la tête du pays. Celui qui s'était fait connaître comme le fils de Pierre Elliott Trudeau, lui aussi premier ministre (de 1968 à 1979 et de 1980 à 1984), avait finalement réussi à se tailler un prénom et à convaincre ses compatriotes, au point de devenir une icône, en 2015. Cette « Trudeaumania » semble bien lointaine. Depuis plusieurs mois, en effet, le chef du gouvernement essuie de vives critiques au sein de son parti et sa popularité dans l'opinion a chuté de manière spectaculaire.En réponse, Justin Trudeau a décidé de démissionner à compter de dimanche 9 mars, date à laquelle un vote interne à son parti désignera son successeur. La passation des pouvoirs survient dans un contexte géopolitique tendu : lundi 3 mars, le président des Etats-Unis, Donald Trump, a annoncé l'entrée en vigueur de tarifs douaniers de 25 % sur l'ensemble des produits venant du Canada et du Mexique, ouvrant la voie à une guerre commerciale avec ces deux pays.Alors, pourquoi Justin Trudeau cède-t-il sa place à un moment si critique pour son pays ? Que lui est-il reproché exactement ? Et quel bilan peut-on dresser de sa carrière politique et de ses deux mandats en tant que premier ministre ? Dans cet épisode du podcast « L'Heure du Monde », Alexandre Lepoutre, correspondant du Monde au Canada, retrace son parcours.Un épisode de Cyrielle Bedu, réalisé par Thomas Zeng. Présentation et suivi éditorial : Claire Leys. Dans cet épisode : extrait de l'intervention de Justin Trudeau, le 6 janvier 2025 ; du clip de Jagmeet Singh, publié le 4 septembre 2024 ; de l'annonce de la démission de Chrystia Freeland sur Radio-Canada Info, le 16 décembre 2024 ; d'une archive de Justin Trudeau, en 1995, sur CT News ; du discours de Justin Trudeau aux funérailles de Pierre Elliott Trudeau, le 30 septembre 2000 ; du combat de boxe entre Justin Trudeau et Patrick Brazeau, le 31 mars 2012 ; du discours victorieux de Justin Trudeau aux élections législatives, le 20 octobre 2015.Cet épisode a été publié le 7 mars 2025.---Pour soutenir "L'Heure du Monde" et notre rédaction, abonnez-vous sur abopodcast.lemonde.fr Hébergé par Audion.

Canada's Liberal party will elect a new leader this weekend and Chrystia Freeland is running to replace Justin Trudeau as prime minister.

Jen Psaki explains that while Trump will offer his own version of how the country is doing tomorrow in his address to a joint session of Congress, it's important to trust what you've been seeing with your own eyes. She is joined by Dan Pfeiffer and Ben Rhodes to preview what to expect from Trump's speech as he continues to cozy up to Russia and gut the federal government. Next, Jen is joined by Chrystia Freeland, who's in the running to be the next liberal leader and Prime Minister of Canada, to discuss her plans to push back against Trump's tariffs. Then, Jen is joined by Representative Ilhan Omar to discuss why she and other Democrats are bringing fired federal workers as their guests to tomorrow's joint session to highlight the devastating impact of Trump's mass firings. Later, Jen brings out the receipts to show how DOGE is actually creating more problems than it's solving. Finally, Jen is joined by Stephanie Ruhle to discuss Trump's plans to build a U.S. crypto reserve and how his allies stand to benefit from this. Check out our social pages below:https://twitter.com/InsideWithPsakihttps://www.instagram.com/InsideWithPsaki/https://www.tiktok.com/@insidewithpsakihttps://www.msnbc.com/jen-psakihttps://bsky.app/profile/insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com

This podcast explores the Liberal Leadership race debate in Canada, where candidates like Mark Carney and Chrystia Freeland tackle issues like U.S. relations and NATO commitments, alongside a wild story of Patrick Douglas Scruggs, a former Florida federal prosecutor accused of stabbing a driver in a road rage incident, with his self-defense claim stirring controversy.

The four Liberal leadership candidates - Mark Carney, Chrystia Freeland, Karina Gould and Frank Baylis - had a chance to make their case to voters and challenge each other over two debates this week. The winner of the race will go on to be the next Prime Minister and will head directly into a tariff war with Donald Trump and an imminent federal election. But with so many points of agreement, did any of the four prove they were up to the task? Especially Carney, the front-runner?Aaron Wherry, senior writer at CBC's Parliamentary Bureau, joins us to talk about the highlights and takeaways from the debates and what it all means for the race and election ahead.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

The four Liberals hoping to replace Justin Trudeau as party leader and prime minister faced off in English and French debates this week. Our politics panel unpacks just how polite the debates stayed between Chrystia Freeland, Mark Carney, Karina Gould, and Frank Baylis — and why whoever wins shouldn't expect the same from Conservative Leader Pierre Poillievre. 

On today's episode of The Candice Malcom Show, Candice is joined by former advisor to Alberta premier Jason Kenney, David Knight Legg, to break down last night's Liberal leadership debate and the latest polling numbers. Plus, Chrystia Freeland has proposed a "new world order" to defend Canada against the U.S., emphasizing the need for stronger alliances with nuclear-armed democratic countries.

Para el investigador Oliver Santín Peña, especialista en los Estados Unidos de la UNAM en México, uno de los temas cruciales del debate interno del Partido Liberal este lunes, en el que participaron Chrystia Freeland, Karina Gould, Frank Baylis y Mark Carney, fue la capacidad que tendrá el futuro primer ministro canadiense para enfrentar al presidente Trump, quien ha sugerido a Canadá convertirse en el estado 51 de Estados Unidos.  Este lunes se llevó a cabo el debate entre los candidatos del Partido Liberal, el partido del primer ministro Justin Trudeau, quien anunció en enero su dimisión al gobierno y a su partido. Durante el debate, los problemas locales quedaron relegados por una nueva preocupación que se posicionó como el tema principal de la noche: quién se enfrentará a su vecino, el presidente Donald Trump.Este lunes, los cuatro candidatos del Partido Liberal debatieron por primera vez en la interna de ese movimiento. Los candidatos que "han repuntado desde el inicio son Chrystia Freeland y Mark Carney", dice a RFI Oliver Santín Peña, miembro del Centro de Investigaciones sobre América del Norte de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM).'A Carney lo conocen todos los organismos internacionales' "Chrystia Freeland fue viceprimera ministra. Estuvo a la cabeza de las negociaciones para el T-MEC. Ha sido una figura muy cercana a Justin Trudeau. Incluso ha formado parte de su gobierno. Su problema es, justamente, esta cercanía. Ella ha buscado desmarcarse de las acciones del primer ministro. Pero, al hacerlo, ha demostrado poca seriedad. Chrystia Freeland no es bien recibida por Trump, quien la ha calificado de 'persona nociva'. Ellos dos no tienen una buena relación. Del otro lado surge la figura de Mark Carney, un tecnócrata muy conocido en todos los organismos monetarios internacionales", afirma Santín.'Yo fui capaz de enfrentar a Trump', dice Freeland Trudeau renunció por la falta de mayoría en el parlamento, lo que había paralizado al gobierno. Su popularidad había caído por problemas locales, entre otros, el aumento de los precios inmobiliarios. La llegada de Trump al poder con sus amenazas de aumentar los aranceles, así como la propuesta de que Canadá se convirtiera en el estado 51 de los Estados Unidos, llevó a que los candidatos convirtieran al mandatario estadounidense en el punto central del debate."Por un lado, Trump está presionando con los aranceles. Está acusando que por el territorio canadiense están entrando drogas y muchos inmigrantes. Esto se ha convertido en el tema del debate del lunes. Específicamente, ¿quién tiene la fortaleza para enfrentar a Trump? Chrystia Freeland va a mantenerse con el discurso de que 'yo he sido capaz de enfrentarlo, yo he doblegado a Trump'; del otro lado, vamos a tener a Mark Carney que va a reafirmar su capacidad para negociar. Algunos analistas consideran que Carney sería un muy buen interlocutor con el gobierno de Estados Unidos", concluye Santín.

Greg Brady and the panel of: Brad Bradford, Toronto city councillor for Beaches - East York, Mark Saunders, former Toronto police chief, mayoral candidate Kim Wright, Founder and Principal of Wright Strategies  Discuss: 1. Mark Carney is going to win the leadership, and win it handily - BUT.....is this a bump because it's an internal contest? And where's the fight in Chrystia Freeland? 2. Impressed by the Chow about-face? I get it's late - but she'd be crushed more for not making a turn - and WHY do we think she's making it?  Learn more about your ad choices.

Donald Trump has delivered Canada an economic broadside. He says goods crossing into the U.S. will soon face tariffs. The White House insists the 25% tariff will start Saturday. Analysts say the move could sink Canada's economy, and Americans will pay more for everyday goods. We have coverage from both sides of the brewing trade war.And: There are five people left in the Liberal leadership race. And another one – Mark Carney – has now said he will step away from what was once a cornerstone of the party's climate policy: the carbon tax. He and Chrystia Freeland both say they will get rid of it. Karina Gould hasn't gone that far, but says she will block any increases. The Conservatives say the move is political – contenders trying to distance themselves from the current leader, Justin Trudeau.Also: Climate change is likely contributing to exploding rat populations around the world. Canadian cities are among those seeing a dramatic increase.Plus: Colleges cutting programs, midair crash investigation, Russian drones in Kherson, and more.

Today on the program, as Freeland campaigns to win the Liberal leadership, and thus the top job in the country, we take a closer look at her life and its controversies with the author of a recent biography.Catherine Tsalikis is a Toronto journalist who covers foreign policy, politics, and gender.

This weekend the leadership race will be all set. Carney is in, Freeland should be in by Sunday. What are the impressions so far? 

Justin Trudeau, Canada's long-standing Prime Minister, announced his resignation this week, marking a seismic shift in the nation's political landscape. Trudeau's departure comes after nearly a decade as Prime Minister and thirteen years as leader of the Liberal Party. His resignation was not entirely unexpected but has sparked a wave of introspection within Canadian politics.Here is what you need to know if you don't care about Canada unless they're playing hockey or changing heads of state as told to us this episode by Evan Scrimshaw.The Breaking Point: Why Trudeau ResignedTrudeau's decision to step down was a culmination of mounting pressure from within his party and worsening public opinion. In recent months, his leadership faced escalating dissent. A pivotal moment was the resignation of the finance minister, which signaled deep fractures within the Liberal Party. Over the holiday season, Trudeau faced an ultimatum from his caucus—resign or face a vote of no confidence.Several factors contributed to Trudeau's plummeting support:* Declining Poll Numbers: Trudeau's approval ratings had been steadily eroding, with the Liberal Party polling over 20 points behind the opposition Conservative Party.* Special Election Defeats: Losing in traditionally strong Liberal ridings signaled waning public support.* Policy Disconnect: While many of Trudeau's policies were popular in principle, his personal brand had become a liability. Voters who liked Liberal initiatives often dismissed them outright when they were linked to Trudeau.Trudeau's tenure will be remembered as one of bold progressive initiatives juxtaposed with ethical controversies. On the positive side, his government achieved significant reductions in child poverty, lowered carbon emissions, and introduced affordable childcare programs. Yet, his administration was marred by scandals, including:* Ethics Violations: Pressure on the attorney general to favor a Quebec-based company, SNC-Lavalin, during a corruption probe.* Conflicts of Interest: Controversies surrounding contracts awarded to organizations with personal ties to Trudeau's family.* Housing Crisis: Critics argue Trudeau's inaction exacerbated Canada's housing affordability crisis, with rents and mortgage rates soaring during his leadership.As Scrimshaw put it, Trudeau's administration embodied “reckless disregard” for ethical boundaries. While these issues might have been survivable individually, collectively, they eroded trust in his leadership.Trudeau's resignation has thrown the Liberal Party into a leadership race. He will remain interim Prime Minister until March, with no parliamentary sittings until then. Key contenders for his replacement include:* Chrystia Freeland, the current finance minister and one of Trudeau's closest allies.* Mark Carney, former Bank of Canada and Bank of England Governor.* Anita Anand, Minister of National Defence.* Other candidates, including Francois-Philippe Champagne, Dominic LeBlanc, and former B.C. Premier Christy Clark.The party faces a critical choice: selecting a leader who can halt its decline and prepare it for the next general election. Scrimshaw warns that without decisive leadership, the Liberal Party risks being overtaken by the New Democratic Party (NDP) or marginalized altogether, as seen historically with the UK's Liberal Party being replaced by Labour.As Trudeau exits, the Conservative Party, led by Pierre Poilievre, appears poised to seize power in the next election. Poilievre, a pragmatic and relatively moderate conservative, has maintained focus on fiscal discipline while distancing himself from extreme social conservatism. The scale of the Conservative victory—whether narrow or overwhelming—will shape the trajectory of Canadian politics for years to come.Trudeau's political obituary is one of contrasts. He entered office as a symbol of youthful energy and progressive ideals, but over time, his administration became a cautionary tale of hubris and ethical lapses. His departure offers an opportunity for renewal within the Liberal Party and Canadian politics at large. Yet, the path forward is fraught with challenges, as the party grapples with its identity and viability in a rapidly shifting political landscape.ChaptersOpening and Introduction (00:00:00–00:00:45)General overview of topics, including Trudeau's resignation, Zuckerberg's changes at Meta, and upcoming political discussions.The Revival of Government (00:00:45–00:01:25)Commentary on the return of political activity in the House and the Trump administration's cabinet hearings.Justin Trudeau Resigns (00:01:25–00:08:45)A detailed discussion of Trudeau's resignation, his legacy, and the future of the Liberal Party.Global Political Trends and Liberal Party Risks (00:08:45–00:12:15)Insights into parallels between Canadian and UK politics, the Liberal Party's identity crisis, and risks of being overtaken by the NDP.Future Leadership of the Liberal Party (00:12:15–00:14:22)Breakdown of potential leadership candidates and their implications.Conservatives' Prospects and Pierre Poilievre (00:14:22–00:21:57)Analysis of Poilievre's leadership style and the Conservative Party's likely dominance in the next election.Discussion with Tom Merritt on Meta (00:39:00–00:41:07)A conversation with Tom Merritt on the implications of Meta's changes for political and social discourse.The Trump Administration's Strategy (00:26:23–00:29:56, 00:42:00–00:49:20)Overview of Donald Trump's legislative plans, reconciliation tactics, and the challenges facing the House and Senate.
