Today we were delighted to welcome the Honorable Lisa Raitt, Vice-Chair of Global Investment Banking at CIBC, for an insightful discussion focused on the implications of recent U.S.-Canada trade developments. Lisa joined CIBC Capital Markets in 2020 following an eleven-year tenure in the Government of Canada. Her distinguished career includes serving as Deputy Leader of the Official Opposition and the Conservative Party of Canada, as well as serving as Minister of Natural Resources, Minister of Labor, and Minister of Transport. We were thrilled to host Lisa and hear her valuable perspective on the evolving trade dynamics between the U.S. and Canada. In our conversation, we explore the Canadian view on President Trump's recent comments regarding tariffs and Canada's auto manufacturing industry, along with the broader implications for U.S.-Canada trade relations. We discuss Canada's political landscape, including Prime Minister Trudeau's decision to step down after losing party support, the Conservative Party's growing momentum under Pierre Poilievre, and Canada's economic challenges and growth concerns. We touch on the unifying effect trade tensions have had on Canadian political and business communities, the potential for retaliatory measures, the need for more power generation, transmission, and distribution to support Canada's economic growth, and intra-Canada trade complications that impact Canada's competitiveness. Lisa provides insight into the impact of the Canadian dollar and interest rates, how currency fluctuations affect key sectors including agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, and sports, the deep economic and familial ties between the U.S. and Canada, whether ongoing trade disputes could fundamentally alter the relationship between the two countries, and more. We are very thankful to Lisa for sharing her time and perspective. Mike Bradley started off the show by highlighting that President Trump's new tariffs and tariff threats are increasing volatility, but that for the most part, bond and equity markets have been moving sideways. He noted January CPI & PPI will be reported over the next two days which could create added market volatility for bonds and equities. If both inflation reports print cooler-than expected, it will likely lead to intensifying pressure from Trump for the FED to cut interest rates at the March FOMC Meeting. On the crude oil market front, WTI price has rallied this week to ~$73/bbl and crude oil time spreads are pointing to a physically tight oil market. Oil price continues to be impacted by on/off tariff threats and continued OPEC production curtailments but was aided this week on news that Russian oil exports are being impacted by tighter Russian oil sanctions. On the natural gas front, U.S. natural gas prompt price has rebounded to ~$3.50/MMBtu on colder weather and the 12-month natural gas strip is now trading above $4.00/MMBtu. BP indicated on their Q4 call that at current U.S natural gas prices, they were contemplating picking up gas rigs “now” which is a new development. He also noted that European natural gas price was trading at ~$17/MMBtu (~$100/bbl oil equivalent) because European gas storage is draining faster than expected due to colder winter weather and poor renewable performance/utilization. He ended by flagging Equinor's recent strategy shift (significant reduction in renewables capex thru 2030) and also noted that BP is calling for a “fundamental reset” of their strategy at their Capital Markets Day (Feb 26th). Robert Kester added his thoughts on AI's dominance in global discourse, highlighting this week's high-profile AI Summit in Paris and different global approaches to AI, including the U.S.'s free-market stance, Europe's push for regulation, and China's state-backed AI expansion. We hope you all enjoy the discussion with Lisa as much as we did. Our best to you all – and to our friends up north, let's work this out, eh!

What if leaders from opposite sides of the political aisle could come together to chart a path for a better economic future? In this illuminating episode, we sit down with the Honorable Anne McClellan and the Honorable Lisa Raitt, co-chairs of the Coalition for a Better Future, to explore their inspiring bipartisan efforts aimed at rejuvenating Canada's economy. You'll hear about the coalition's origins, its mission rooted in the global call to "build back better," and how these two formidable leaders use their diverse backgrounds to push for sustainable and inclusive economic growth. We then pivot to discuss the vital role of evidence-based decision-making and the power of cross-partisan collaboration. Anne and Lisa open up about their journey from political adversaries to partners in progress, offering insights into the benefits of starting from a common factual base to reduce polarization. They share candid personal anecdotes and practical advice on lowering emotional temperatures during contentious conversations, making this a must-listen for anyone interested in effective, empathetic leadership focused on making real progress rather than focusing on refusing to compromise. Finally, the conversation turns to the voices that often go unheard in discussions about economic growth: those from rural and small-town Canada. Anne and Lisa share heartfelt stories that highlight the need for inclusive leadership and the importance of listening to diverse perspectives. From dairy farmers to oil and gas executives, the coalition aims to ensure that economic growth is a shared benefit for everyone. This episode is a compelling reminder that economic progress isn't just about numbers; it's about people, unity, and a collective vision for a better future. Tune in to be inspired by their vision and learn how you can contribute to a more prosperous Canada. What You'll Learn: • The formation and mission of the Coalition for a Better Future. • The importance of evidence-based decision-making and cross-partisan collaboration. • The critical role of empathy in today's hyper-polarized environment. • Practical advice on lowering emotional temperatures in discussions and promoting constructive dialogue. • The critical need to include voices from all walks of life, especially those from rural and small-town communities, in the conversation about economic growth.

The Honourable Milton Dick MP, who is currently the Federal Member for Oxley, had the honouring in being elected as the 32nd Speaker of the Australian House of Representatives in July, 2022. With a strong focus on serving the community and helping whenever and wherever he can, Milton has had an association with the political landscape since he joined the ALP at the age of 18 as a university student and served as National President of Young Labor.  He's worked in a number of other roles, from Electorate Officer for David Beddall and a position working for Senator John Hogg, the President of the Senate at the time. In 2004, he was appointed as the ALP's State Secretary and Campaign Director, having served as a delegate to the national conference since 2001. He led the party's successful campaign in Queensland at the 2007 Federal Election and announced his resignation in December 2007 to stand for political office, which he was successful in being elected as the Brisbane City Councillor for the Richlands Ward. During his time as a Councillor, he held the Deputy Leader of the Opposition and then Leader of the Opposition from 2012 to the time of his resignation in 2016, where he he was pre-selected and elected as the Federal Member for Oxley, following the Hon Bernie Ripoll's retirement. During this episode, Milton's passion for people, for community and for increasing the level of what he calls Democratic Literacy is very evident. As the 32nd Speaker of the Australian House of Representatives, he takes huge pride in his position and the responsibility of the role is certainly not taken for granted.  It's a great conversation where he shares plenty of his thoughts, reflections and information on life, people and politics.
