Formula 1 returns after another frustrating mid-season break — and the Canadian Grand Prix could be one of the biggest weekends of the season so far. In this episode of the Everything Trackside Podcast, we preview the Canadian GP from Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal — one of the most iconic tracks on the Formula 1 calendar. We discuss:
The feds are considering it, and countries like Spain and the U.K. have already gone that way. We looks to their example for what Canada can learn. Plus, the pros and cons of buying a rebuilt car and a conversation with economist Justin Wolfers about why he's trying to bring economics to the people.
The conflict with Iran has raised a lot of questions about Canadian oil, gas and energy. If we produce so much of the stuff, why are we at the mercy of bottlenecks in the Strait of Hormuz? Jay Khosla is executive director of economic and energy policy at the Public Policy Forum. Susannah Pierce is the former CEO of Shell Canada and also led the development of the LNG Canada terminal. They join host Amanda Lang to talk about strategic reserves, east-west pipelines and the missing electricity link.
The U.K. is moving toward what it’s calling a “smoke-free generation.” Lawmakers there have approved landmark legislation that would permanently ban cigarette sales to anyone born after January 1st, 2009, meaning today’s teenagers would never legally be able to buy tobacco products in their lifetime. The law will also ban vaping, in places where smoking is banned, and allows the government to regulate the flavours and packaging of vaping products. Flory Doucas, co-director and spokesperson for the Quebec Coalition for Tobacco Control, spoke to Andrew Carter.

It's a war between Israel, the US and Iran...but how did Lebanon get dragged into it? Its militia group, Hezbollah, is a loyal proxy of the Iranian regime, placing tens of millions of Lebanese citizens at risk in the name of loyalty to its top financier and ally. More than 1000 people have been killed, and more than a million have been displaced. Earlier this week Israel's Defence Minister said his country plans on annexing a large portion of southern Lebanon for security purposes, a move Canada denounced. Host Maria Kestane speaks to Aurel Braun, a political science and international relations professor at the University of Toronto to discuss the Lebanese government's complex relationship with Hezbollah, how Canada and other NATO countries could help the government dismantle the militia, and what comes next for its civilians.

From transatlantic alliances to Canada's global positioning beyond the United States, this episode challenges long-held assumptions and explores how thoughtful conversation across divides can shape a nation's future.

Is Canada making a huge mistake by pivoting away from the U.S.? The U.S.–Canada relationship has been one of the most stable alliances in modern history – but political shifts, global instability, and rising threats from China, Russia, and Iran are testing that bond like never before. In this hard-hitting episode, we dig into the reality behind the headlines and ask the tough question: Can Canada survive – economically or militarily – without the United States at its side? Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS For decades, Canada and the U.S. have fought alongside each other in major conflicts, defended shared interests, and benefited from an open, secure global trade system. But now, Canadian leaders are entertaining new defense and trade alignments, some even calling for a “pivot” away from Washington. Is this bold independence… or dangerous overconfidence? Joining me is Anthony De Luca-Baratta of Young Voices, who argues that the U.S.–Canada partnership isn't just about friendship – it's about survival. From shared geopolitical goals to economic interdependence, we explore why both nations need each other more than ever. We also unpack Canada's defense spending gap, its reliance on U.S. protection, and what that means in a world where American voters are increasingly skeptical of global policing. We don't shy away from the hard truths: America's foreign policy has been messy, sometimes overreaching, and costly – and Canadians have followed us into conflicts with questionable returns. But what happens if the U.S. steps back completely? Could Canada stand on its own in a hostile world, or would it be forced into dangerous compromises with regimes that don't share its values? If you care about national sovereignty, North American security, and the future of one of the world's most important alliances, you can't afford to miss this episode.

It's Part 2 with Brock McGillis, former Canadian pro hockey player and LGBTQ+ advocate for an unforgettable conversation that blends trauma, advocacy, fashion, and heart. Po'l opens up about surviving a violent hate crime—backstage at his own fashion show, inside a church. The attacker, literally named Jesus, screamed homophobic slurs as he beat him. What followed was a 5-year legal battle to have it properly charged as a hate crime. Pol' fought relentlessly—confronting a dismissive DA, yelling in court, and demanding justice. His voice became a symbol of empowerment for victims who feel invisible. Brock relates to the trauma, sharing how his advocacy journey began after experiencing his own struggles as a closeted athlete. He now tours hockey teams and corporations across North America—shifting culture through empathy, vulnerability, and honest conversations. He shares how his approach—what he calls breaking hockey drag—is opening minds and hearts in unexpected places. We dive into toxic masculinity, safe spaces, and empathy, reflecting on how trauma doesn't end with the event—it stays with you. Pol' admits he still can't sit with his back to a door. Brock, meanwhile, has helped thousands of athletes and executives see life through a more human lens. Then it's time for laughs, fashion, and hot topics: - Captain America couture disasters

Matt Cohen and John Ruffolo break down the seismic shift in Canadian politics as Mark Carney takes over as Prime Minister, succeeding Justin Trudeau. We explore what this means for Canada's economy, upcoming elections, and how business leaders are reacting to the change.* What's next for Carney and the Liberal Party?* Could Canada be heading for an April election?* How will Canada's economic policies evolve under Carney's leadership?Mark Carney Takes Over as Canada's 24th Prime Minister (00:01:00)In a widely expected move, Mark Carney won the Liberal leadership race with 86% of the vote, stepping into the role of Prime Minister. Despite having never held elected office, Carney's deep experience in global finance makes him a powerful force in Canadian politics.Carney's Background:* Former Governor of the Bank of Canada (2008-2013)* Governor of the Bank of England (2013-2020)* Economic advisor to Trudeau during COVID-19* Declined a role in Harper's Conservative governmentWhat's Next?With a tight race against Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, Carney must move quickly to define his platform beyond broad economic promises. His leadership so far has been untested in political debates, raising questions about how he will navigate policy discussions leading up to a potential election.John Ruffolo's Take:“This is not a massive shift from Trudeau's policies—it's more of a continuation. Expect more government spending and taxation debates, but the big question is: How will Carney perform under real political pressure?”Will Canada See an April Election? (00:03:00)An early election could be announced as soon as March 16, with a vote set for April 22.Key Election Dynamics:* The Liberal Party is eager to hold elections before Conservative fundraising gains momentum.* Carney currently lacks a parliamentary seat, which could impact campaign optics.* A potential coalition between the Liberals, NDP, and Greens could reshape the political landscape.Projected Outcomes:* Conservatives still favored to win—but the margin is narrowing.* A left-wing coalition could prevent a Conservative majority.* Economic issues, particularly cost of living and taxation, will dominate voter concerns.John Ruffolo's Perspective:“With Canada's economy still under pressure, the Liberals need to move fast. Their best bet is a short campaign before Pierre Poilievre gains further traction. If the Liberals delay too long, it could backfire.”Canada's Economic Crossroads: What Carney's Policies Could Mean (00:07:00)Carney has hinted at major spending initiatives, but concerns over taxation remain front and center.Top Concerns:* Rising debt: More government borrowing could impact inflation.* Carbon tax shift: The tax isn't going away—just moving from gas stations to industrial sectors.* Cost of living crisis: Canadians are struggling with affordability, and tax policy will be a major campaign issue.What's Next?Will Carney unveil a bold new economic vision, or will his policies be Trudeau's agenda rebranded? Investors, business leaders, and everyday Canadians are watching closely.The Big Picture: What This Means for CanadaWith a potential election looming, Canada stands at a political and economic crossroads.

Since being sworn into office for a second time, President Donald Trump has slashed or suspended billions of dollars of funding for research and international aid, and cut thousands of jobs, plunging federal agencies and universities into chaos. This has some researchers considering a career change - and others contemplating leaving the U.S. Could Canada become a haven for researchers looking to innovate? Let's find out from: In Calgary, Alberta, Sarah Laframboise: Executive director of Evidence for Democracy; In Washington, D.C.: Keith Martin, Executive director for Consortium of Universities for Global Health; In Montreal, Quebec, Richard Gold, professor at McGill University's Faculty of Law, and chief policy and partnerships officer at Conscience, a non-profit focused on addressing market failure in drug development; And in Kingston, Ontario: Stephen Archer, Cardiologist and director of the Translational Institute of Medicine at Queen's University.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Conspiracy radio legend Richard Syrett has seen it all in his time on the airwaves, and he leans on that experience when analyzing this uniquely contentious moment between Canada and the United States. Who is Mark Carney, the man poised to become Canada's next PM? Should we be concerned about his connections to the Bank of England and Ghislaine Maxwell? Could Canada actually become the 51st state? He delves into those questions, as well as another pressing issue -- is Brigitte Macron trans? Also this week we discuss the remarkable qualities of the Shroud of Turin, and why Syrett thinks it covered the body of Jesus at the moment of resurrection. Gold, Mint, True Werk

Today's podcast: Before Donald Trump, the Biden administration wrote to PM Justin Trudeau, and Congress had The Northern Border Caucus as Americans had real concerns about the proliferation of threats from Canada to the U.S. - Is it all posturing by Donald Trump that Canada is not fulfilling our agreement to have each other's back? Our guest says, indeed not only posturing by Trump. - On border security, the premiers are stepping up with their own plans, in the absence of federal leadership. And the premiers' plans can actually be implemented, while the federal plan "isn't really worth the paper it's written on." And on the subject of tariffs, does it make any sense for Canada to threaten retaliatory tariffs against the U.S.? Guest: Christian Leuprecht. Distinguished professor at Royal Military College How many do you remember? Might you have forgotten a few? RIGHT DISHONOURABLE: Scandals that defined the Trudeau era is a piece by Bryan Passifiume Post Media national politics reporter. Guest: Bryan Passifiume, Post Media national politics reporter As we wind down the program, longtime guests and friends join us. Tim Danson has been the lawyer for the French and Mahaffy families for 30+ years in their battle for whatever justice Canada's offender-friendly system deems acceptable. Tim was also the lawyer of Jim and Anna Stephenson whose 12-year-old son Christopher was abducted from a Brampton, Ontario shopping mall by convicted child sexual psychopath Joseph Fredericks who would murder Christopher. During the inquest into Christopher's death, the federal government refused to fund Stephenson's legal expenses, suggesting federal government lawyers could properly represent Stephenson's concerns. After a program with Jim Stephenson, Christopher's father, and Tim Danson, the federal Minister of Justice and Attorney General Doug Lewis demanded to be on our program to 'set us straight.' The next morning Lewis spent two painful (for him) hours in-studio. The following morning, the Minister of Justice called in to say the federal government had been wrong and that Ottawa would not pay the Stephenson family's legal costs. Tim Danson had not sent the Stephenson's one invoice. Guest: Tim Danson, lawyer for the French and Mahaffy families U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has said he would not use military force to annex Canada, but that he will use economic force to create an economic union between the U.S. and Canada. - But, the United States did have a detailed plan for a military invasion of Canada in 1935 and today, near Watertown, New York, some 10 miles from the New York/Ontario border and some 50 or so miles from Ottawa sits a massive U.S. military installation, Fort Drum, home of the 10th Mountain Division of the U.S. Army. A rapid deployment military unit. The question is periodically asked "why is this military unit stationed in such proximity to the seat of Canada's national government? Might the U.S. have plans to invade Canada under specific circumstances? Guest: Dr. Tim Cook. Chief historian and Director of Research at the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa. --------------------------------------------- Host/Content Producer – Roy Green Technical Producer - Leonardo Coelho Podcast Producer - Jonathan Chung If you enjoyed the podcast, tell a friend!

Police in Calgary ticketed and towed a street full of RVs — vehicles that people priced out of the housing market had been living in. While a local politician says the motorhome dwellers must move along, an Oregon city facing similar issues took a different approach. Could Canada learn from them?
