The year is off to a fast start, and so is the Good Talk panel. How worried should Canada be after the US invasion of Venezuela and Donald Trump's constant threats towards some of his closest neighbours? That and more in our first 2026 Good Talk.

Rudyard and Andrew react to Trump's 2025 national security doctrine being put into action this past weekend with the US military operation in Venezuela and the abduction of its president Nicolas Maduro. Both hosts agree this was not about restoring democracy. Trump's use of hard power while dismantling the country's soft power and sources of genuine American strength is a backward, simplistic and adolescent view of American power. It is a foreign policy that supposes the 19th century great power competition model is most conducive to American interests. Rudyard and Andrew unpack different public reactions to this military raid - specifically from the leaders of Mexico and Denmark - and explain why it is in Canada's interest to draw a line in the sand and stand firmly against our southern neighbour. In the final moments of the show they discuss Pierre Poilievre's political future as he continues to trail in the polls behind Mark Carney. Will his lack of discipline and vocal support of Trump's military raid hurt his leadership aspirations?

Trump invades Venezuela, grabs Nicolas Maduro and his wife, says he will run the country for a while, and he's going to fix the country's oil production while he's at it. Our first Monday of the new year and Dr Janice Stein is ready to talk about how worried Canada should be. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

2025 ha sido un año importante en la política internacional. Ha estado marcado por el regreso de Donald Trump a la Casa Blanca. Su hiperactividad y una presencia constante en los medios, han dominado el año. Varios países han ganado y otros han perdido. Entre los primeros está China que, contra todo pronóstico, ha sido uno de los mayores beneficiados. Trump, consciente de los altos costes de una guerra comercial, firmó en noviembre una tregua que suavizó las restricciones chinas a las tierras raras. Esta distensión ha permitido a Xi Jinping centrarse en los problemas internos y consolidar a China como una superpotencia económica equivalente a EEUU. En Oriente Medio Arabia Saudita se ha convertido en el socio indispensable de Trump en Oriente Medio. Esto posiciona al país como el principal contrapeso a Irán y cabeza del mundo árabe. No muy lejos Israel se ha subido también al carro de los vencedores gracias a victorias como la destrucción del programa nuclear iraní y el final de la guerra de Gaza que ha dejado a Hezbolá y a Hamás muy debilitadas. Netanyahu termina el año con Israel en su posición más fuerte en varias décadas. En Sudamérica la Argentina de Javier Milei no sólo se está recuperando poco a poco de la crisis económica que sufre desde hace años, es que se ha convertido en el aliado preferencial de EEUU en Hispanoamérica. Trump ve en Milei un socio muy confiable que servirá de contrapeso a la influencia china en la región. En Siria las cosas también han mejorado. Tras la caída de Assad en 2024 el nuevo Gobierno ha conseguido que les retiren casi todas todas las sanciones, lo que permitirá reconstruir el país y atraerá inversión extranjera. Para los sirios 2025 ha sido el primer año de paz en los últimos tres lustros. En el lado opuesto varios países han sufrido reveses importantes. Irán ha encajado el mayor golpe: su programa nuclear está destruido, aliados como Hezbolá muy debilitados y, para colmo de males, nuevas sanciones y la crisis económica va a más agravada por la inflación desbocada y protestas callejeras. Sus aliados venezolanos están incluso peor. El régimen chavista se encuentra aislado y Nicolás Maduro no tiene muy claro que el régimen pueda sobrevivir al bloqueo naval que decretó Donald Trump hace unas semanas. Rusia y China se han puesto de perfil, tanto con Irán como con Venezuela. En el primer mundo la Unión Europea atraviesa un estancamiento económico que se ha cronificado a causa de una regulación excesiva, altos impuestos y rigideces de todo tipo. Esto alimenta el auge de partidos de derecha identitaria que crecen como la espuma cabalgando sobre el descontento y la inmigración. En Canadá las cosas no van mucho mejor. El nuevo Gobierno de Mark Carney está batallando contra una crisis similar a la europea. En el Reino Unido pasa exactamente lo mismo. El año geopolítico ha sido, por lo demás, especialmente movido y ha dejado muchos asuntos abiertos para los próximos meses. Pero es bueno recordar que ninguna victoria o derrota es definitiva: los ganadores de hoy pueden ser los perdedores de mañana y viceversa.

For Jason Pack, presenter of the Disorder podcast, the person of the year for 2025 was the Canadian Prime Minister, Mark Carney. But for 2026, Pack predicts, the person of the year will be a resurrected Jeffrey Epstein (or, at least, the Epstein scandal). Orderers vs Disorderers: the dialectic driving our age of upheaval. The Canadian Prime Minister, for Pack, is a hero. "Carney stood up to Trump and said, Great, you want to punish us? Punish us," Pack says. Whereas the conspiracy theorists stoking the Epstein paranoia are the bad guys. "The more that we in the mainstream attempt to say it was just a sex scandal, the more that people on the extreme left and right are gonna gain in power," Pack warns. So it's Carney vs Epstein. The hard center vs the extreme left and right. Order vs disorder. If only the future was that dialectically simple.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Mark Carney has been presented to the public as a savior-steady, smart, and principled. But beneath the polished media persona lies something more dangerous: a man who exemplifies the rise of post-democratic rule through unelected elites. This book tracks Carney's journey from Goldman Sachs to global central banking, from his UN climate roles to his...

In a year-end interview with the CBC's Rosemary Barton, the prime minister talks about why his plan for more pipelines will help the climate. He also gives his version of what happened behind the scenes when former minister Steven Guilbeaut quit cabinet over the new energy agreement with Alberta.

For a year that changed just about everything we know about the Canadian political landscape, Power & Politics is upgrading the final Weekly Wrap podcast of 2025 to our Yearly Wrap. Zain Velji, Carlene Variyan and Rachael Segal break down Mark Carney's rise to prime minister, the Conservative reversal of fortunes and whether Carney has lived up to his big promises both at home and south of the border.

The world is bleak so here's a quiz about happy news. Gavin quizzes his comedians on what Martha Stewert says is acceptable for your holiday party, but the panel has no love for Martha. ChatGPT's ‘adult-mode' is coming in 2026 and it's definitely not a “more responsible” mode of AI, like some people think. Mark Carney is using British spelling in the Canadian government memos and some linguists have written a stern letter asking him to stop. Comedians Steph Tolev, Miguel Rivas and Andrew Phung join Gavin for the last quiz of 2025. If you're too afraid to share your opinions on social media, that's okay!

Welcome back to another episode of the Couple Casuals Podcast!In this episode, Stefano sits down once again with Mario (4TheNorth) — one of Canada's most influential political commentators — for a wide-ranging, no-nonsense conversation about where the country is heading and why so many Canadians feel left behind.Mario breaks down how Canada reached this moment: unchecked government spending, distorted economic data, unsustainable immigration levels, and a political system that increasingly avoids accountability. From youth unemployment and part-time job manipulation, to food bank usage hitting record highs, he explains why the official narrative no longer matches everyday reality.In this conversation, Stefano and Mario dig into:• why Canadians across all backgrounds feel “cheated” by the system• how immigration policy is straining housing, healthcare, and wages• why economic “job growth” isn't what it appears to be• how government spending is being reclassified to mask massive deficits• why political trust is collapsing — and why independent voices are growing• Mark Carney's leadership, continuity from Trudeau, and what may come nextMario also explains why he has no interest in becoming a politician, despite massive influence — and why speaking freely outside the system may be more powerful than holding office inside it.This episode is candid, fact-driven, and grounded in lived reality — a must-watch for anyone trying to understand Canadian politics beyond headlines and spin.Grab a casual, lock in, and let's get into it.Host: Stefano (stefo)Instagram: @drstefohttps://www.instagram.com/drstefo?igs...Guest: Mario Zelaya Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mario4thenorth?igsh=MXc2YTNlNmRta2N2NA==TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@officialmariozelaya?_r=1&_t=ZS-92JJpiCu5siX: https://x.com/mario4thenorth?s=21&t=Cgz_58zASW84g-pj2PUNtwThis episode is brought to you by Canada First — secure your home with Canada's best home fortification.

We cover major policy shifts, including the election of the Mark Carney Liberals in Canada, the introduction of Bill C-5, the launch of the Major Projects Office, the Ottawa–Alberta Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), and growing political support for LNG. We also review changes in the United States, including tariffs and the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB), which rolled back many of America's generous clean energy subsidies.  Another recurring theme this year was the surge in expectations for AI data center electricity demand—including in Canada, where three proposed projects in Alberta are moving closer to a final investment decision.It's been a whirlwind year. Jackie and Peter wish everyone a wonderful holiday break, and we'll return in 2026.Content referenced in this podcast:  The Hub.ca, Have we really hit peak oil?

When Canada elected Mark Carney as prime minister, there was hope that the country would pursue climate policies. That hope was crushed after Carney signed a deal with the oil-producing province of Alberta that will roll back or dilute green regulations. As a result, Steven Guilbeault, Carney’s culture minister has resigned from cabinet. He was the environment minister under Justin Trudeau and responsible for many of the policies at risk. This week on Zero, Guilbeault tells Akshat Rathi why the Alberta deal was the last straw.

PREVIEW — Charles Burton — China-Canada Relations, Mark Carney's Government, and the Failure to Address Foreign Influence Operations. Burton analyzes Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's approach to China, suggesting Carney believes that making concessions on Chinese espionage and harassment—and delaying implementation of the Foreign Influence Registry (FIRA)—will prompt China to open its markets. Historically, this diplomatic strategy has proven ineffective; China routinely offers empty promises while continuing coercive operations, exposing Canada's critical vulnerability to foreign influence campaigns and intelligence operations. 1910 OTTAWA

Canada-China Relations and Chinese Deception Guest: Charles Burton Charles Burton, author of The Beaver and the Dragon, discussed Canada's troubled relationship with China, criticizing the new Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney for adopting rhetoric favoring "pragmatic and constructive relations," suggesting Canada might ally with China's geostrategic goal of undermining U.S.-backed liberal democracies, with Carney's accelerated meetings with Xi Jinping possibly being attempts to secure market access or apply pressure on the U.S., while Burton noted concerns over the non-implementation of Canada's foreign agent registry despite issues like Chinese espionage and election interference. 1904
