Making Money Minute with Ron Hiebert - Sports Betting Sports betting, whether through neighbourhood hockey pools, or legalized online gambling sites like Draft Kings, is growing exponentially. It is also diverting two of peoples most important assets - their time and money - into non productive activity. Households that bet on sports regularly, routinely see their savings rates drop by 14%. Researching favourite teams or players, can easily suck up precious hours a day. Just think how much further ahead people would be, if they devoted the same time, resources, and energy to investing

Canada has long lived off its mythology: a country of opportunity, stability, and growth. But 2025 is stripping away that veneer. For the first time in a generation, the country is experiencing a profound reversal of the very forces that powered its ascent — population, jobs, and GDP — and nowhere are the consequences clearer than in the housing market.Last year, more than 106,000 Canadians left the country — the largest exodus since the late 1960s. At the same time, Ontario and B.C., the twin engines of the national economy, have registered record-low population growth, a stark reversal for regions once defined by relentless inflows. This hollowing-out of the demographic base isn't just a number; it's the erosion of demand, the shrinking of ambition, and the quiet departure of the very people meant to sustain the future.The labour market tells a similar story of unraveling. Toronto's unemployment rate has breached 9% for the first time in 15 years. Construction jobs — the bedrock of Canada's housing-dependent economy — are vanishing by the tens of thousands. The irony is suffocating: even as cranes dot skylines, the hands that once built Canada's growth are being sidelined. EI claims are surging, unemployment benefits ballooning, and yet the only jobs being created are in government. Housing — once Canada's great safety blanket — now exposes the fragility. Toronto just suffered its worst July for new home sales in more than 40 years. Inventory has ballooned to nearly 60 months' supply. Sales volumes are lower than at any point in modern history, plunging beneath the brutal downturns of the 1990s. And in a historical first, more Canadians are signing leases than purchase agreements. Renting has become not just an economic choice, but an existential one: a sign that ownership, the foundation of middle-class identity, has slipped out of reach.Vancouver, long sheltered by its global allure, is not immune. September numbers reveal prices sliding for a fifth straight month, down to levels last seen in early 2023. Detached homes, once the city's crown jewel, are now weighed down by foreclosures, while days on market stretch longer with each passing month. Inventory sits well above the 10-year average, foreshadowing further declines.Meanwhile, the broader economy has hit an iceberg. GDP shrank in the second quarter, with exports collapsing nearly 8% and business investment plummeting. Machinery spending, non-residential construction, the very lifeblood of productivity, is bleeding out. What keeps the economy afloat? Government spending and consumer credit. Households dip into savings to buy cars, Ottawa borrows to mask deficits, and capital flees anything resembling long-term growth. The illusion of stability is preserved only through debt.The housing correction now unfolding is one of the sharpest on record. Real home prices are down 24% since 2022 — faster than the infamous crashes of the '80s and '90s. Affordability remains shattered, even as values fall, because incomes refuse to keep pace. What once felt like a bubble slowly deflating is beginning to look like a collapse.The story of 2025 is not just about numbers on a chart. It is about a country forced to reckon with its limits, its illusions, and its future. And the question hanging over it all: is Canada prepared for what comes after the myth of endless growth? _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:
Does the Qur'an only invite us to think, or does its message also create an emotional state? In this episode of Thinking Islam, we explore the profound emotional trajectories within the Quranic paradigm with leading scholar Dr. Karen Bauer. From the roles of fear and hope in religious experience to the surprising emotional vulnerability of the prophets, we unpack how the Qur'anic text masterfully orchestrates human feelings to create lasting inner transformation. This conversation explores Dr. Bauer's groundbreaking research on emotional plots in Islamic texts. It delves into the emotional trajectories within Quranic narratives, examining how the heart serves as both the seat of perception and feeling, and how emotions are portrayed throughout scripture.Together, we explore how the Quran aims to evoke emotional responses in its listeners. We examine the connection between emotions and both internal and external orientations, and how this shapes the Quranic understanding of what it means to be human. Dr. Karen Bauer is an Associate Professor in Quranic Studies at the Institute of Ismaili Studies in London. She earned her PhD from Princeton University and is widely recognised for her work on gender and emotional rhetoric in the Quran. Her recent publications include Women, Households, and the Hereafter in the Qur'an (2023) and Gender Hierarchy in the Qur'an (2015). Dr. Bauer bridges medieval scholarship with contemporary understanding through rigorous textual analysis and extensive fieldwork.
Fewer than 5% of homes in Ireland have solar panels on their roofs but that's up from around 1% 5 years ago. It's a reflection of the growing affordability of them, EU subsidies and the soaring cost of energy that has driven demand. Next year a new concept called ‘dynamic tariffs' will come into force which could drive even more households to create their own energy supplies. Joe was joined on the show by Darren Murray the Chief Operating Officer of Ecoplex which is one of the largest suppliers in the State.

About this episode: American farms, restaurants, retailers, and households throw out nearly 30% of the food in our system, landfilling millions of tons of food each year and draining resources like land and energy. Households generate the most waste, with everyday cooks overbuying at grocery stores and throwing away a substantial portion of their purchases—but getting ahead of those scraps can make a big difference. In this episode: ReFED's Dana Gunders covers the environmental costs of food waste and shares immediate action items to better manage it. Guest: Dana Gunders is a national food systems expert and the president of ReFED—an organization that researches and promotes evidence-based action to end food waste. Host: Stephanie Desmon, MA, is a former journalist, author, and the director of public relations and communications for the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.

In this episode of The Electorette, host Jen Taylor-Skinner speaks with Jessica Fulton, senior fellow with the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, about the 2025 budget bill—rebranded by conservatives as the "Big Beautiful Bill"—and the devastating consequences it could have for Black households. Rooted in the Joint Center's policy brief, Centering Black Households in the 2025 Tax Debate, the conversation exposes how proposals like extending the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act would continue to funnel wealth to high-income, disproportionately white households—while offering temporary, shallow benefits to working-class families. Jessica explains how policies that sound equitable on the surface—like tax deductions for tipped workers, child tax credits, and overtime exemptions—actually reinforce economic exclusion. Together, they explore how tax policy has long been used as a tool of racialized wealth-building and why understanding these “wonky” details is essential to building a more equitable economy. They also touch on the dangers of cutting Pell Grants, dismantling agencies that support Black-owned businesses, and using budget reconciliation to pass policies that will have generational consequences. This episode is a powerful call for greater transparency, stronger advocacy, and inclusive policymaking that truly supports all families—not just the wealthiest. Episode Chapters: (00:00) Tax Code, Wealth, and Racial Inequality The Federal Tax Code perpetuates racial inequality, with implications for Black households, through policies like the 2025 Budget Bill. (12:23) Tax Policy and Racial Disparities Changes to child tax credit privilege higher-income households, exclude poorest families, and perpetuate systemic inequities. (23:56) Tax Policy and Worker Income Nature's financial burdens on low-income workers, tax treatment of tips and overtime pay, and erosion of worker protections. (27:28) Tax Policies and Working Class Disadvantages Tax policies can privilege certain workers, have political motivations, and create disparities between demographic groups.

They reflect on the contrast between today's climate comforts and the resilience of feral children who can endure freezing temperatures without flinching. Dr. Drew shares a moment from a recent Kill Tony appearance that reminded him of Adam's mother, sparking a conversation about upbringing and emotional patterns. Adam then dives deep into the symbolism of sandwich-making, explaining how something as simple as a sandwich can represent parental care, national pride, and personal development.
