She highlights the personal stakes entrepreneurs take and why government attitudes toward business are undermining job creation.

John Oakley tackles two storylines shaping Canada right now. First, Jocelyn Bamford—VP at Automatic Coating and founder of the Coalition of Concerned Manufacturers and Businesses of Canada—breaks down how U.S. tariffs and Ottawa/Queen's Park responses could hit Canadian manufacturing, from autos to steel, and what policy levers (energy costs, red tape, pipelines) might actually keep high-skill jobs here. Then Tristin Hopper, National Post columnist and author of “Don't Be Canada,” explains the latest polling: Mark Carney's fading honeymoon, a Conservative upswing, seniors consolidating as the Liberal base, a disappearing gender gap, and the NDP's ongoing slump. What we cover: How prospective U.S. tariffs could ripple through Windsor, Oshawa, Guelph, Brampton & beyond Auto sector realities under USMCA vs. headline panic—and whether political theatre helps or hurts Ontario's “hardball” signals (LCBO booze, critical minerals, energy) and investor confidence The cost stack for manufacturers: electricity, compliance, and “death by a thousand cuts” Poll shifts since the election: approval slides, vote-intent realignments, and where swing voters went Guests: Jocelyn Bamford (VP, Automatic Coating; Founder, Coalition of Concerned Manufacturers and Businesses of Canada); Tristin Hopper (Columnist, National Post; Author, “Don't Be Canada”).

As the United States locks in major trade deals with Japan and the European Union, Canada risks missing the window of opportunity.

And how do we get Canada moving again when we're stuck with our elbows up and no one at the table?  David Leis is joined by Catherine Swift, President of the Coalition of Concerned Manufacturers and Businesses of Canada, and Grant Devine, former Premier of Saskatchewan, to break down what's really happening and what must be done before it's too late.

Among this spending was an additional $150 million for the CBC,and more for CN Rail, Parks Canada … This occurred, but nowhere was this reported in the legacy media.

A cornerstone of the trade war with the United States has centred around the Auto Industry in Canada. Is it time for Canada to admit that this industry is leaving Canada?

It's been a wild ride since Donald Trump became President of the United States. Now that we have had time to settle into the current reality it's important to ask the question - How did we get here?

Is the absence of a unified message from Canada on how to respond to the threat of tariffs weakening our position? Ontario Premier Doug Ford threatened a 25% surcharge on electricity - and has gone so far as to say he would turn the electricity off.

Today's podcast: The passing of Rex Murphy. Guest: Catherine Swift. Multi-decade friend and president of Coalition of Concerned Manufacturers and Businesses of Canada. Also member of our Beauties and the Beast panel. And: Callers, reflecting on what made Rex special.   Selina Robinson was until recently a senior cabinet minister in the British Columbia provincial NDP government of David Eby. Then her comment on a B'nai Brith organized panel show that before Israel became a state its territory was just "a crappy piece of land with nothing on it," where several hundred thousand people lived, but it didn't produce anything and didn't have an economy. The backlash to MLA Robinson's statement caused her eventual and bitter resignation from cabinet and the NDP party as she claimed antisemitism exists among NDP caucus members. Now MLA Robinson accuses premier Eby of "gaslighting" the Jewish community with empty promises to do something about antisemitism (per Vaughn Palmer in Vancouver Sun). Guest: Selena Robinson. Independent MLA, British Columbia.   Canada's system of MAID (Medical assistance in dying) is under increased international and national scrutiny and criticism. In 2021, more than 10,000 people chose to die with physician administered drugs. The question of whether mental illness is a sole qualifier for MAID was addressed in parliament, reminding that in 2015 the Supreme Court ruled adults with "a grievous and irremedial medical condition" were eligible for assisted death. Now there is growing fear people under economic strain are accessing MAID.  In 2021, more than 10,000 people accessed MAID in Canada, while at the same time the numbers of doctors engaging in providing medical assistance in dying is dropping. Meanwhile a leading United States medical ethicist is calling for MAID to immediately be adopted in the State of New York.  Guest: Dr. Arthur Caplan. Mitty Professor of Bioethics. NYU Grossman School of Medicine.  Author: Smart Mice, Not so smart People.   Split headline: Canada's divorce rate is at its lowest in 50 years. However, Fewer people are entering marriage.
