This week, Jackie and Peter discuss Peter's recent writing, including his article in The Hub titled “Increasing Canada's Energy Ambition is an Economic and Geopolitical Imperative” as well as two other pieces, “Geoeconomics and State Capitalism” and “The Cost of Being a Market Hostage.” Peter argues that Canada must raise its level of ambition to compete in today's geoeconomic and geopolitical environment—one where markets are shaped less by free trade and more by state power, economic coercion, and the strategic use of industries to advance geopolitical objectives. In this new order, the effects of tariffs, sanctions, control of trade routes, and dominance over critical resources are felt daily on the global stage. Yet Canada is not showing up as a true contender. The country remains passive, heavily dependent on the United States for oil and gas exports, at significant cost to the economy. Peter outlines four levels of ambition that Canada could pursue. At the lowest level, the nation remains a “market hostage,” reflecting its current state in oil and gas. A modest step up would be the role of “competitor,” in which new tidewater export capacity expands Canada's reach. Moving further, Canada could become a “negotiator,” able to leverage energy exports as a bargaining chip in international relations. At the highest level, Canada could aspire to be an “aggressor,” a country that wields genuine market power in vital resources—similar to the way China has achieved influence through state control of strategic industries.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has had a dynamic past several days marked by family milestones, music success, and business moves. Fresh headlines have been dominated by Justin's new family moment as he shared heartwarming photos with Hailey Bieber and their son Jack Blues, walking together at the Coachella grounds. Fans flooded his social media, saying he finally got the dream family he always wanted. The couple's casual family outing was also a celebration of Justin's recent announcement as a Coachella 2026 headliner, solidifying his position as a festival mainstay, according to Reality Tea. The emotional impact of these photos has been tangible, racking up over two million likes and countless supportive comments from his fanbase.On the professional front, NBC Palm Springs reported last week that Justin's name leads the Coachella 2025 lineup, alongside stars like SZA and The Strokes, confirming his ongoing influence as a top-tier live act. His latest album, Swag, continues to dominate the charts. KUNR detailed how the release of Swag II, an expanded deluxe edition featuring 44 songs, drove the album to re-enter the Billboard top ten, propelled by singles like DAISIES and SPEED DEMON charting in the Hot 100. This chart resurgence was mirrored in coverage from WLRN, further underscoring Justin's sustained relevance in pop music's crowded streaming market.In business news, Justin has expanded his footprint in the cannabis industry. ATL FM News reported his partnership with Palms to launch a limited edition weed line called Peaches, named after his hit single. Bieber spoke to Vogue about why he supports cannabis reform causes, with proceeds benefitting the Last Prisoner Project and Veterans Walk and Talk. The product is rolling out in California, Nevada, Massachusetts, and Florida, aiming to help destigmatize recreational cannabis.On September 10, Justin stunned patrons of a Cambridge pub in Ontario, Canada by walking in for pool and private karaoke, singing songs from his new album and later dropping by a local coffee roaster with Hailey. CTV News detailed how staff and customers were left starstruck, and Justin's social media posts about the visit garnered tens of thousands of likes, offering a rare glimpse of his laid-back public persona.Arguably the most biographically significant news involves Justin's former manager, Scooter Braun. PEOPLE revealed last Thursday that Justin and Braun settled a longstanding financial dispute for over $31 million, tied to canceled tour debts and unpaid commissions. The settlement comes in the wake of a revealing 2025 documentary about Justin's catalog sale and personal struggles. This marks the final end of a 15-year working relationship, with Braun now retired and Bieber fully independent in his artistic direction.Justin's net worth remains north of $300 million as Forbes and other outlets confirm, driven by music, business ventures, and brand endorsements. The past week – album success, public appearances, family milestones, and a new chapter in business and management – will likely resonate for years as pivotal moments in Bieber's evolving biography.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has been making major headlines, both musically and personally, in recent days. NPR reports that his latest album Swag, which initially debuted at number two on the Billboard chart about two months back, is enjoying a renaissance after the surprise release of an expanded deluxe edition called Swag II. The original Swag had 21 tracks but the new version, now totaling 44 songs and clocking in at over two hours, has vaulted the album from number 17 up to the number four position on the Billboard charts. The single Daisies sits firmly in the top ten, and fresh tracks like Speed Demon have entered the Hot 100, reflecting Bieber's strategy of streaming-era supersizing. While this move is commercially successful, critical reception is mixed: Rolling Stone has called Swag II "safe" and The Observer, even from self-described Beliebers, describes the project as underwhelming with only a few standout tracks like Speed Demon and Eye Candy, the latter believed to be a tribute to his wife Hailey Bieber.On the live front, NBC Palm Springs broke the news that Bieber will headline Coachella 2025, a genuine first as a lead act after years as a guest performer. The slot, confirmed on September 15, is a lucrative move: Rolling Stone and Celebrity Net Worth both detail that Bieber negotiated his own $10 million fee for two weekends, bypassing agent fees and reaffirming his position as a savvy business operator. This comes on the heels of him stepping away from Drew House, his fashion brand, as he clarified in April: he stated on social media that Drew House no longer represents him or his family, and urged fans not to spend money on it. Meanwhile, he has been seen supporting Hailey's Rhode skincare line, which was acquired for $1 billion by e.l.f. Beauty in May.On September 10, as shown on CTV News, Justin surprised staff at a local Cambridge pub in Ontario with a laid-back karaoke session, singing tracks from Swag II and generally enjoying a low-key night out. The following day he and Hailey popped into a local coffee shop, where staff described the couple as friendly and unassuming, with fans and baristas capturing candid moments for Instagram. Publicly, Hailey has been vocally supportive, celebrating her husband's Coachella headliner status with the now-viral "Bieberchella" Instagram story, while also sharing family updates and their celebration of young son Jack's first birthday in August.Speculation has been minimal and overshadowed by these verifiable events. The sum of recent days is a narrative of career resurgence, critical scrutiny, business maneuvering, personal milestones, and a comfortable public presence, all signaling a new phase in Bieber's ongoing evolution as both artist and celebrity.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
