Will Erin O'Toole's climate plan be enough to push the Conservative Party of Canada into government next federal election? Will support for carbon pricing be enough to convince swing voters? Will it alienate the base on the Prairies? Conservative strategist Melissa Caouette of Canadian Strategy Group gets into it. As China gets set to move forward with its digital yuan, there are questions around transparency, surveillance, prevalence, and potential impact on global currencies (most especially the US dollar). Pulitzer Prize-winning Wall Street Journal correspondent James T. Areddy digs into the details, and provides valuable insight into what makes the Chinese government tick. Breanna and Peter Phipps were born into a cult, "escaping" with their five children just three years ago. They've since launched a blog (reset-ish.com) and an Instagram profile (@b_rupf), and they're getting ready to unveil a podcast. They sit down for a courageous, in depth discussion on life in a cult, the power of that community, and what life's been like on the outside. Plus, it's Monday, so our friends at Kuby Energy present another inspiring edition of Positive Reflections! 14:57 - Melissa Caouette 38:10 - James Areddy 1:11:43 - Peter & Breanna Phipps 2:20:15 - Positive Reflections
