Podcasts about Quebec

Three hunters head deep into the rugged wilderness of Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula for a 10-day trip, but fail to return home. A search turns up their abandoned truck, followed by something far more disturbing.As investigators try to piece together what happened, attention turns to a local man named Wilbert Coffin, one of the last people known to have crossed paths with the missing men. This case would go on to trigger years of controversy with questions about police tunnel vision, political interference and the nature of justice itself.More information:Listen to The Coffin Affair: A Miscarriage of Justice Revisited by Kathryn M. Campbell.The intention of this episode is to revisit a criminal case that became a major chapter in Canadian legal history, examine how the investigation and prosecution unfolded, and explore why the questions surrounding it have endured for generations. ---------------------Separation Anxiety: The Alberta Referendum A five part investigative series wherever you get your podcasts.

The Big Five is the quintessential Montreal podcast, and the best way to get caught up on the top stories impacting the city. Every weekday, host Elias Makos and a roster of Montreal thought leaders debate and inform. On today's Big 5: Dan Delmar, independent political analyst, media strategist, and co-founder of TNKR Media, and Andrew Caddell, columnist for the Hill Times and President of the Task Force on Linguistic Policy. On the fifth annual National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, listeners and panelists clashed over the lack of Indigenous history taught in French public schools while fewer than twenty of ninety-four historic Calls to Action have been completed. Correctional Service Canada announced federal prisons will now distribute safe inhalation and snorting supplies, including paper straws and foil, to reduce overdose risks. Guelph's mayor and university officials are demanding answers after an unsanctioned homecoming street party deteriorated into a violent riot. Trump advisor Peter Navarro ordered Canadian lobbyists to "get the hell out" of the US as Prime Minister Mark Carney warned Canada may escalate the trade war.

HPQ Silicon has completed the 50/50 ownership transaction with PyroGenesis that gives its fumed silica program a common commercial platform. Each company now owns half of HPQ Silica Polvere Inc. (HSPI), the rights holder of the proprietary Fumed Silica Reactor (FSR) technology. The transaction comes after independently validated pilot production of commercial grade material and alongside an update on four preliminary commercial opportunities. With discussions ranging from an industry leader to potential facilities in North America and the Middle East, the next milestone is converting interest into binding agreements.WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW50/50 Alignment: PyroGenesis converted its 10% gross sales royalty into a 50% ownership interest in HSPI. Both partners now share ownership and commercialization responsibilities.Industry Leader: Discussions resumed with an industry leader in fumed silica production on a potential framework for the next phase of collaboration. An additional meeting is scheduled for this week.1,000 TPY JV: Negotiations resumed on the previously announced proposed 1,000 tonne per year joint venture. Both sides received proposed changes favourably following a meeting at the potential partner's U.S. facility.Large Asian Demand Scenario: A potential Asian customer exploring North American production previously indicated demand could require several 10,000 tonne per year FSR systems. It requested a meeting at PyroGenesis headquarters to accelerate discussions.Middle East Plant: Discussions remain planned with an existing PyroGenesis customer with significant Middle East operations. Previous discussions contemplated an approximately 10,000 TPY local facility.STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONSFumed silica helps coatings, sealants, cosmetics and other products perform. Producing it conventionally involves a complex industrial chain, chlorosilane feedstock and hydrogen chloride byproduct. HPQ's earlier disclosures cited approximately 2.4 kg of HCl per kilogram of fumed silica, energy requirements of 100,000 to 120,000 kWh per tonne across the conventional production chain, substantial capital requirements and an EBITDA margin benchmark around 20%. Those conditions help explain the commercial interest in a simpler alternative.HPQ's FSR uses plasma to convert quartz directly into fumed silica in a single step, eliminating chlorosilane feedstock and associated HCl generation. Earlier modelling projected energy consumption at commercial scale of 8,000 to 12,000 kWh per tonne, with savings of up to 92%. It also projected reductions in CO₂ emissions associated with production of up to 99.9% using Quebec electricity. The pilot has produced commercial grade “150” material, with independent testing validating performance. Tourillon said the team knows how to make 200 m²/g material. The larger opportunity may be what lower costs allow customers to do with the material. In the interview, Tourillon explained that the FSR could make new applications economically viable, including replacing more expensive materials in certain end products. He described potential new markets that “could potentially dwarf” the traditional market. The Asian customer's indication of demand for several 10,000 tonne per year systems illustrates the scale being explored. Realizing that opportunity would depend on achieving the required costs, meeting customer specifications and converting interest into commercial commitments.CEO Bernard Tourillon:“We can do 150 commercial, we know how to make 200.” Tourillon said extensive technical work has increased the team's confidence in costing, with discussions moving toward practical operating requirements such as output, capacity and energy use. He explained that equal ownership simplifies negotiations and supports shared strategic decisions. He also said he has additional opportunities in his pipeline. On financing, he described how future offtake agreements or firm orders could support financing at the HSPI level.

Nuvau Minerals CEO Christina McCarthy joins Mining Stock Daily to introduce the company's Matagami project in Quebec, where the first-ever drilling focused on gold at the Thundermine target returned 139 g/t gold over 4.45 metres. McCarthy discusses the largely unexplored gold potential across Nuvau's massive 1,400-square-kilometre land package, alongside a potential restart of the historic base-metal operation using existing permitted infrastructure. With an updated PEA expected soon and an option to acquire Glencore's permitted mill for $5 million, Nuvau is evaluating a strategy where future production could ultimately fund district-scale gold and base-metal exploration.

In this episode of Tell Me More, Dr. Wiles and Luke sit down with Raphel Anzenberger, executive director of the French Baptist Union of Canada, to explore evangelism, Scripture engagement, and what the kingdom of God is doing in a highly secular context.--Watch the sermon Here: https://youtu.be/sXMS1CN62pIListen to the Sermon here: https://share.transistor.fm/s/55bf5818Download the Sermon Notes from Raphel: https://www.fbca.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/7-signs-of-John-method.pdfRaphel begins by sharing his background—from growing up in Strasbourg, to mission work in Chad, to partnering with Christian communities across Europe and now serving in Quebec. He helps listeners understand how French-speaking Canada represents an under-evangelized environment, and why the church there is learning to communicate the gospel with clarity and courage in a culture where faith is often challenged, misunderstood, or dismissed.A major focus of the conversation is Raphel's approach to reaching people who believe they already know what Christianity is—yet have not encountered its claims through the primary sources. Drawing from his sermon on John's Gospel and the “Seven Signs”, he explains how beginning with the person and words of Jesus can reframe people's assumptions—especially when the gospel confronts secular narratives at their foundation.The episode also highlights themes of “flourishing” in community life, the importance of faithfulness in minority contexts, and the upside-down nature of the kingdom—where real spiritual fruit often grows not through cultural power, but through service, urgency, and Jesus-centered discipleship.Whether you're asking “How do we do evangelism in a secular age?” or “How do we cultivate a living, Scripture-shaped church?” this conversation offers practical insight, biblical grounding, and encouraging perspective for the journey ahead.

Which Canadian Cities Are Most Exposed to U.S. Tariffs? Tariffs and the ongoing Canada-U.S. trade dispute are creating another layer of uncertainty for Canadian businesses, workers, landlords and real estate investors. But the impact is not going to be equal across the country. In today's episode, Wayne and Gabby look at which Canadian cities have the greatest exposure to U.S. tariffs, why certain local economies are more vulnerable than others, and what investors should be thinking about when choosing markets and building portfolios that can survive economic disruptions. The Rental Market Is Getting More Competitive Before getting into tariffs, Wayne and Gabby share an update from their own rental portfolio. A new tenant moved in early over the weekend, and Gabby explains why they were particularly happy with the tenant profile, including strong credit, good communication, insurance in place, and rent and security deposit paid ahead of time. They also discuss the changing Edmonton rental market. Tenants currently have more options in certain property categories, which means landlords may have to work harder to attract strong applicants. Wayne and Gabby currently have multiple renovation crews moving between properties, but these aren't simply renovations for the sake of improving a property. They're strategic improvements designed to make their rentals more competitive, reduce vacancy and help achieve stronger rents. When supply increases, being "good enough" may not be enough. Presentation, pricing, tenant experience and property condition become increasingly important. What Happens When a Tenant Moves In Before the Lease Starts? A live viewer asked an important landlord question: If you allow a tenant to move in before the official lease date, does that create additional liability? Gabby walks through three things landlords should consider: • Update the lease commencement date and have the appropriate parties acknowledge the change. • Make sure the tenant's insurance begins on the actual possession date. • Collect the required rent and security deposit before possession is provided. Landlords can also decide whether to charge prorated rent for the additional days. In this particular situation, Wayne and Gabby chose not to charge extra because the property was already vacant and the early possession was only a matter of days. Real Estate Investors Need to Build for the Storm One of the biggest themes of today's episode is that economic disruptions are inevitable. Oil crashes, pandemics, rapidly rising interest rates, flooding, trade disputes and other unexpected events continually test real estate investors. Wayne's argument is that investors shouldn't build portfolios that only work when everything goes right. They should buy properties with enough cash flow and financial cushion to withstand periods when things go wrong. He discusses an example of a mentorship student's property generating approximately $670 per month in cash flow. That cushion gives the investor significantly more room to absorb higher expenses, lower rents or other unexpected changes than a property operating close to break-even. Cash flow isn't spending money. It's a risk mitigator. The 5% Rule and Surviving Economic Disruptions Wayne returns to the cash flow framework from his book, The 5% Rule™: A Real Estate Cash Flow Test for Canadian Investors. The formula is: (Annual Cash Flow ÷ Down Payment) × 100 5–6% = sufficient 7–9% = strong 10%+ = excellent Wayne's position is that investors should be buying properties capable of producing meaningful cash flow without depending on appreciation. The greater the cushion, the better positioned the investor is to deal with vacancies, declining rents, higher financing costs and economic shocks. Search "The 5% Rule by Wayne Hillier" on Amazon to learn more. Which Canadian Cities Are Most Exposed to U.S. Tariffs? The episode then examines Canadian cities whose economies have particularly strong exposure to trade with the United States. The industries highlighted include: • Energy in Alberta and New Brunswick • Automotive and manufacturing in Southern Ontario • Steel in Hamilton • Aluminum, forestry and manufacturing in Quebec Saint John, New Brunswick ranked at the top of the tariff exposure index discussed during the show, followed by Calgary. Calgary's position is particularly interesting for Alberta investors. The city's economy has significant exposure to the corporate and export side of Canada's energy industry, and an enormous percentage of its international merchandise exports are destined for the United States. Southern Ontario also features prominently because of its deeply integrated manufacturing and automotive supply chains. Windsor, Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo, Brantford and Guelph were among the markets discussed. Hamilton's steel industry creates another form of exposure, while several Quebec communities face risks connected to aluminum, forestry and manufacturing. Lethbridge also appeared among the top 10, although Wayne emphasizes that simply appearing on the list doesn't mean every city faces an equivalent level of exposure. There is a substantial difference between the exposure measurements at the top and bottom of the list. Edmonton vs. Calgary For Wayne, one of the most interesting comparisons is Edmonton versus Calgary. Although both cities are part of an energy-producing province, their economic structures are different. Calgary's economy has greater direct exposure to the corporate and export side of energy. Edmonton still has significant connections to energy, manufacturing and industrial activity, but its economy also includes substantial government, healthcare, education, construction and other sectors. In the ranking discussed during the episode, Edmonton was considerably further down the list at 24th. Wayne explains why economic diversification is one of the fundamentals he considers when choosing a real estate market. No market is immune to economic shocks, but he wants to invest in large markets with strong economies and enough diversification to absorb them. That resilience is one of the reasons Wayne continues to favour Edmonton real estate investing. Don't Wait for Perfect Conditions The takeaway isn't that investors should stop buying real estate because tariffs, interest rates or economic uncertainty exist. There is always another challenge coming. Wayne and Gabby's strategy is to build portfolios that can survive those challenges through strong cash flow, adequate reserves, appropriate tenant profiles, careful market selection and disciplined buying. Waiting for perfect conditions isn't the strategy. Preparing for imperfect conditions is.

Three new provincial election polls confirm Premier Christine Fréchette's CAQ is plunging in support, with one survey showing a massive seven-point drop into fourth place. Premier Christine Fréchette faced heavy criticism after reports revealed the CAQ tried shopping a "top secret" American election interference story to media outlets before contacting Canada's spy agency. Lawyers issued a formal warning to Élections Québec demanding a retraction of directives that reportedly instructed polling station workers to restrict their use of English. The UCI Road World Championships wrapped up in Montreal, leaving a mixed legacy of beautiful scenery alongside business frustrations over inaccurate maps and parking tickets.

Small Cap Breaking News You Can't Miss!Here's a quick rundown of the latest updates from standout small-cap companies making big moves today:Troilus Mining Corp. (TSX: TLG) (OTCQX: CHXMF) (FSE: CM5)Troilus received a credit-approved commitment letter from KfW IPEX-Bank and Societe Generale to underwrite US$850 million in debt financing for its Troilus Gold-Copper Project in Quebec. The commitment is part of a planned US$1.1 billion package that includes a proposed US$250 million contribution from Export Development Canada. It marks one of the company's largest financing milestones and a major step toward a fully funded construction decision.NextSource Materials Inc. (TSX: NEXT) (OTCQB: NSRCF)NextSource signed a binding agreement for a US$30 million strategic investment from Japan's Hanwa and the government agency JOGMEC to advance its Battery Anode Facility in Abu Dhabi. The partners will take a 15 percent stake in the facility, with NextSource retaining 85 percent. The deal validates the company's push to build an independent battery anode supply chain and helps fund first-phase development.Talisker Resources Ltd. (TSX: TSK) (OTCQX: TSKFF)Talisker reported a new high-grade gold discovery at its Mustang Mine on the Bralorne project, defining a 36-metre strike length averaging 27.88 g/t gold. Standout face samples included 229 g/t over 0.63 m and 93.1 g/t over 0.63 m, all outside the current mineral resource. The results point to meaningful resource-expansion potential near existing underground infrastructure.Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO) (CSE: DPRO) (FSE: 3U8)Draganfly announced a US$10 million strategic investment from Unusual Machines and a leading U.S. investment fund, each contributing US$5 million. The at-market registered direct offering priced about 1.87 million shares at US$5.35 and is expected to close on or about September 29. Proceeds support Draganfly's expanding U.S. defense operations and recent procurement milestones with the Canadian Armed Forces.Predictiv AI Inc. (CSE: PAI) (FWB: 7IT)Predictiv AI completed the initial deployment of its SHIFT AI fleet management platform for the United Nations Development Programme in Burundi, following a competitive UNDP procurement win. Osisko Metals Incorporated (TSX: OM) (OTCQX: OMZNF) (FSE: 0B51)Osisko Metals reported new drilling from its Gaspe Copper project in Quebec, headlined by 211.5 metres averaging 0.59 percent copper, including 28.5 metres at 2.31 percent copper and 11.8 g/t silver. Gladiator Metals Corp. (TSXV: GLAD) (OTCQX: GDTRF) (FSE: ZX7) (NSX: GM1)Gladiator intersected 24.0 metres at 2.37 percent copper, including 13.1 metres at 3.89 percent copper from just 8 metres depth, at its Cowley prospect in Yukon's Whitehorse Copper Project. Standard Lithium Ltd. (NYSE American: SLI) (TSXV: SLI)Smackover Lithium, Standard Lithium's partnership with Equinor, amended its offtake agreement with Trafigura, adding an option for up to 4,000 tonnes per year of battery-quality lithium carbonate on top of an existing 8,000-tonne commitment. Total customer commitments now reach 20,000 tonnes per year, exceeding the South West Arkansas Project's target. The company can now focus on finalizing a roughly US$1.1 billion debt financing package.Bottom Line: Today's tape was driven by major financings and strategic investments — from Troilus's US$850 million debt commitment to fresh capital backing NextSource, Draganfly and Allied Critical Metals — alongside standout drill results from Talisker, Osisko and Gladiator and key operating milestones for Predictiv AI, Standard Lithium and Patagonia Gold. Capital keeps flowing into critical minerals, gold and defense technology as these small caps push toward production and commercialization.

Interview with Victor Cantore, President & CEO of Amex Gold MiningOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/amex-exploration-tsxvamx-quebec-gold-project-posts-standout-feasibility-results-9879Recording date: 24th Sept 2026Amex Gold Mining (TSXV:AMX) is pursuing an unusual development model at its Perron Gold Project, located about 8 kilometres from Normétal in Quebec's Abitibi region. Instead of waiting for full Phase 1 permitting and a traditional construction financing, the company has begun a fully permitted 40,000-tonne bulk sample and is building it to the specification of the eventual mine.Underground, the ramp has passed roughly 100 metres and is advancing at around 5-6 metres per day. It will run approximately 1.5 kilometres to the 235-metre level, providing access to the high-grade Champagne Zone. Contractor CMAC is carrying out the work, and Amex has been hiring experienced miners.On surface, CEO Victor Cantore estimates the bulk sample will cost about C$60 million, with around C$40 million going into infrastructure that Phase 1 will reuse. That includes a C$7.7 million grid connection supplying hydro power at 5.5 cents per kilowatt hour, expected by January, and a water treatment plant already sized for Phase 1.The Phase 1 FS supports the case. It outlines 774,000 ounces of proven and probable reserves at 12.10 g/T, and a five-year operation averaging 147,000 ounces per year at US$910/oz AISC. At a US$3,500/oz base case, the FS shows a post-tax NPV5 of C$1.127 billion, a 114.6% IRR and a 0.5-year payback. Initial capital of C$193.9 million falls to C$125.8 million net after C$68.1 million of pre-production revenue.Cantore's own scenario goes further. Assuming 25,000 ounces from the bulk sample at US$4,000 gold, he estimates roughly C$135 million of revenue. Combined with the infrastructure overlap and pre-production revenue, he believes Phase 1 capital could be covered before commercial production is declared. If a gap remained, he would prefer a forward sale of about 10,000 ounces over new equity. This is a management scenario, not an FS outcome, and it depends on grade reconciliation, gold prices and execution.Two dependencies stand out. First, processing is covered by an LOI with Eldorado Gold, the company's 27% shareholder, but no definitive agreement has been signed. Several other mills in the region need feed, which provides a fallback. Second, the Phase 1 permit is targeted for Q3 or Q4 2027, ahead of the FS assumption of mid-2028. The Project Notice has been filed.Valuation offers context. Amex had a market capitalisation of about C$715 million in late August 2026, around 0.63 times its Phase 1 post-tax NPV. Cantore argues the stock should trade at a multiple of annual free cash flow once production is in view.Exploration remains the second engine. About C$24 million is allocated for 2027, with six drills active across a 570 square kilometre package spanning Quebec and Ontario. Targets include the new Rosé Zone, VMS-to-gold vectoring in Ontario and depth extensions at Champagne, which has returned high-grade intercepts at 1.6 kilometres. A Phase 2 concept envisages a 2,000 tonne-per-day on-site mill around 2033.View Amex Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/amex-explorationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com/subscribe

Send us a text by clicking this link!America doesn't have a “neutral” public square, it has a creed it rarely names. We take on the rising debate over Catholic integralism by reacting to Jeremy Boreing's interview with a Catholic academic and then pulling the thread all the way back through Catholic social teaching, church and state history, and the modern liberal order that most of us were taught to treat as inevitable.We start by defining liberalism in plain terms, not as a generic insult, but as a set of ideas with real consequences: religious liberalism that separates civil society from the Church, political liberalism that grounds authority in popular consent, and economic liberalism that elevates individual autonomy in markets. From there, integralism becomes easier to understand as a competing vision of the common good, where the state is not a “theology-free zone” and where spiritual ends outrank temporal ones without collapsing into theocracy.We also tackle the hard part Catholics keep circling: Vatican II and religious liberty. We talk through why Dignitatis Humanae is invoked as a conversation-stopper, why older papal condemnations like Quanta Cura still matter to many Catholics, and what it means when people read everything through a conciliar lens. Then we test popular claims about Spain, Ireland, and Quebec by looking at the timing of religious decline, the role of Catholic education, and the way culture shifts can break practice faster than any single policy.If you care about Catholic integralism, post-liberalism, Americanism, or the future of Catholic institutions, this is a sharp, source-driven conversation that refuses easy slogans.

Larry Ostola speaks with William Jenkins about his book Canada and the Great Irish Famine. In the summer of 1847, over four hundred ships arrived in the Gulf of St Lawrence, carrying Irish men, women, and children who were fleeing the starvation and misery of the Great Potato Famine. Tens of thousands of famine refugees rebuilt their lives in different parts of Canada, in places urban and rural, Anglophone and Francophone. Though still a young province within the British Empire, Canada would be marked permanently and in significant ways by this mass migration. Canada and the Great Irish Famine examines how people confronted, experienced, and remembered the famine migration. Essays consider the transatlantic voyage; the collection of donations and organization of aid; the challenges encountered by the cities of Quebec, Saint John, Montreal, Toronto, Kingston, and Hamilton and their public debates over the impact of so many new arrivals; the accompanying problems of disease, destitution, mental illness, death and burial; the stories of orphaned children; and expressions of famine memory. The worst demographic catastrophe in nineteenth-century Europe inspired generations of political writings, artistic and literary endeavours, and commemorative practices, and it was woven into narratives of Irish nationalism and the founding of Canada. Canada and the Great Irish Famine provides a new perspective on the social outcomes of Ireland's famine migration as well as on the resilience and adaptability of the receiving communities and the migrants themselves. William Jenkins is associate professor of history at York University and the current president of the Canadian Association for Irish Studies. He is the author of Between Raid and Rebellion: The Irish in Buffalo and Toronto, 1867–1916. If you like our work, please consider supporting it: bit.ly/support_WTY.

The relationship between Canada and the United States has made headlines over the summer, but the two countries also pose some unique, cross-border labor challenges. Guests Christopher Deehy and Cody Yorke are international labor and employment lawyers specializing in Canada/U.S. relations who deal with these differences daily. Independent of the political climate, interactions on the labor and employment front create their own issues. One big difference is that unlike the United States, in Canada each province has its own labor laws, and in some cases such as banking, federal rules may also apply. It's imperative to understand these variances when dealing with cross-border labor relations.  Oh, then there's the French civil law code in Quebec and the use of the French language. Canada is not just “United States North,” it has its own laws and what may apply in the U.S. may not apply in Canada. For example, the “at-will” employment rules of the U.S. may not apply in Canada, where advance notice may be required. If you're doing business across the border, this could be a factor.  No podcast can fully explore every aspect of the differences in labor and employment law between the U.S. and Canada, but if you're working with a client with employment issues across the border, this intriguing episode with get you thinking about the questions you'll want to ask.

Interview with Matt Manson, President & CEO of Radisson Mining Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/radisson-mining-tsxvrds-obrien-82-gold-resource-growth-drilling-continues-high-success-rate-10919Recording date: 22nd Sept 2026Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV:RDS) has secured a strategic anchor shareholder while keeping its exploration programme funded. Agnico Eagle Mines Limited bought 53,420,000 units at C$1.07, raising C$57,159,400 and taking about 10.45% of the common shares. Half a warrant per unit would lift its stake to about 14.90% on a partially diluted basis if exercised. The placement remains subject to final TSX Venture Exchange acceptance.The company will use the proceeds to begin an underground exploration programme at its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project in the Abitibi region of Quebec. The centrepiece is an access ramp to about 300 metres vertical depth. Ore drives through mineralised zones will bring material to surface, but Radisson will not develop stopes or mining panels and does not call the work a bulk sample. Manson said the programme is meant to test continuity of mineralisation, ground conditions, dilution and the tonnes per day the orebody can support. Those variables determine whether a high-grade narrow vein deposit can be mined at a steady rate.Timing matters for investors tracking catalysts. Permitting and preliminary engineering have started. Manson expects to break ground on the portal around the middle of 2027, with about 18 months of work to reach depth. The objective is to have the ramp in place for 2029. In parallel, the 140,000-metre surface programme runs on eight rigs, with a ninth planned for a hole to 2.5 km depth. A resource update is likely by the end of 2026, followed by another in 2027.The current resource stands at 2.3 million ounces, made up of 0.63 million ounces indicated and 1.69 million ounces inferred, according to the company's release. Manson said similar mineralisation continuing to a 2 km floor points to 3 to 4 million ounces in total, and he sees upwards of 4 million ounces. Manson cites an 83% success rate for deep step-out holes from shows 98 hits from 120 holes.Valuation is where Manson sees a gap. He put the shares at US$191 per ounce on 2.3 million ounces after a C$1.17 close, against takeouts at US$500 to US$600 per ounce over the past six months. Precedent transactions are imperfect comparisons, since prices reflect stage, grade and infrastructure access. Manson also said Agnico Eagle's stake is a level Radisson is comfortable with and that the stand-alone path remains the default. Any use of the LaRonde infrastructure is a future step to be considered.Risks remain as narrow vein deposits depend on continuity, and underground development has to keep pace with any future mill feed. O'Brien is a 1920s mine site with an old tailings facility, and Manson said legacy issues must be addressed. The exploration target is unproven, and the commentary comes from a company executive with an interest in the outcome. Investors should watch the year-end resource update, exchange acceptance and the 2027 portal start.View Radisson Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/radisson-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com/subscribe

Two goldendoodles that sleep in the bedroom, two corgis next door, two little girls, and a neighbor's security camera all stayed silent through two gunshots. On day three of the Caleb Flynn trial, the jury heard from everyone who should have noticed. Tony breaks down a day that ended with a 12-year-old's reaction to learning who her father's mistress was.Neighbor Kimberly Bingaman testified her dogs are very vocal and stayed quiet, and her cameras recorded nothing. Ashley Flynn's mother Jill Smith said she had to shake the girls awake at 3:30 a.m. Ashley's father Todd Smith said he always thought the dogs would be the greatest defense and started asking why they never barked before he got home from Quebec.Ohio BCI scientists testified they found no foreign DNA in the house. Caleb's prints were on the bedroom door frame and on the refrigerator police say had to be moved to open the garage door, and both bullets came from one gun that has never been found. On cross, the analyst conceded a faint trace on the truck console was too weak to read but is there, and an officer confirmed Caleb was never tested for gunshot residue and was allowed to wash his hands after fingerprinting.The family's testimony supplied the rest. Kayla Keyt said Caleb earned more than $200,000 a year, that she showed him a spreadsheet projecting up to $400,000, and that he asked to see it again in September. A police captain showed a monthly charge on Caleb's card for an Instagram-tracking service starting that same month. Matthew Keyt said Caleb's fear two days after the shooting was losing custody of the girls.Caleb Flynn has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder and related charges. Tony explains what Ohio law requires the state to prove about planning, and why the last thing the jury heard from this family may matter more than any lab result.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Jill Smith's phone rang at 3 a.m. on February 16. It was her son-in-law, Caleb Flynn, telling her someone had broken in and shot Ashley. On the third day of the Caleb Flynn trial in Miami County, Ohio, Jill told the jury what happened next, and by the end of the day her granddaughter's three-word reaction to the affair was in the record.Jill testified she got dizzy and lay on the bathroom floor before she could drive. Body camera footage from earlier in the trial showed Caleb on his knees on the lawn when she arrived, telling her the girls were still sleeping and that he didn't know what to do. She said he then gave her the account he later repeated to her daughter Kayla and her husband Todd: a cough, the couch, a dog's collar, lying down with the younger girl, a gunshot. The defense asked Jill no questions.Todd Smith testified he brought Caleb into the family company, paid him well, and mailed monthly checks from the inheritance, and that on the drive home from Quebec he couldn't understand why the dogs never barked. Jill had told him not to go there. Kayla Keyt said she believed police had the wrong man until the FBI told her about the other woman, who worked in the music ministry at the family's church.A Tipp City police captain showed the jury bank records including a monthly Snoopreport charge, a service that tracks another person's Instagram, running from September through January. Ohio BCI scientists found no foreign DNA in the house. The defense established that Caleb volunteered his DNA and prints, was never tested for gunshot residue, and that no print or DNA can be dated.Caleb Flynn has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder and related charges. Tony tells the story of a family that gave a man everything, the night he called them, and what a 12-year-old said when she finally heard the name.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
