Stephen LeDrew opens today's Three Minutes with a story every Canadian should hear - a billion-dollar vote of non-confidence in Canada's economy.Nutrien, the Saskatchewan-based potash giant and one of the world's largest fertilizer suppliers, warned Ottawa last year that it desperately needed expanded port access to ship product to Asia. With Vancouver clogged, over-regulated, and stagnant, the company signalled it might need to look south unless the Federal Government changed things.Ottawa did nothing.Now the verdict is in: Nutrien is spending $1 billion to build its export terminal in Washington State - not Canada. Why? Lower taxes. Faster approvals. Less bureaucracy. And a government that actually says “yes.”LeDrew breaks down the failure: • How a Canadian company was pushed out of its own country • Why officials claimed they “had no idea” • How endless bureaucracy and regulatory overlap are strangling investment • And why Canada's productivity collapse is no longer theoretical - it's happening in real timeA sharp, urgent commentary on how political inertia is destroying Canadian opportunity - and how we must stop it before more industries flee south.

Evan and Kristjan sit down with Ken Seitz, CEO of Nutrien, whose journey from a Saskatchewan dairy farm to leading one of the world's largest ag companies is a story rooted in humility, hard work, and curiosity. Ken shares how growing up on the farm shaped his leadership approach, the mentors who taught him the value of truth, discipline, and community, and how those early experiences continue to influence his perspective on business and community.The conversation covers everything from global fertiliser trade flows and market volatility to the future of technology and talent in agriculture. Ken explains how Nutrien adapts to geopolitical uncertainty, why flexibility is the only way forward, and how Canadian farmers can use data, discipline, and bold thinking to stay competitive. Through it all, he returns to the same theme that Saskatchewan values, curiosity and commitment to compete are what drive progress in both farming and business.

Dr. Sally Flis, Director of Sustainable Ag Programs at Nutrien shares how she's keeping an eye on the biofuel space and the opportunities it could have for farmers with the 45Z tax credit and other incentives.  To stay connected with USFRA, join our newsletter and become involved in our efforts, here. 

In this can't-miss episode of The Food Professor Podcast, Michael LeBlanc and Sylvain Charlebois return with Part Two of their exclusive, final official interview with Michael Medline, former President & CEO of Empire/Sobeys. Medline offers unusually candid reflections on leadership, culture, vendor relationships, and the evolution of one of Canada's largest food retailers.The conversation opens with a deep dive into vendor relations and the Canadian Grocery Code of Conduct. Medline explains his early shock at the combative nature of vendor–retailer dynamics and details his personal commitment to transforming the ecosystem into one built on fairness, respect, and partnership. He reflects on how mentorship from industry leaders like Michael Graydon and collaboration with executives such as Mark Taylor helped advance the Code from concept to reality — ultimately becoming one of the proudest achievements of his tenure.Medline also shares rare behind-the-scenes reflections on working with the Sobey family, leading through disruption, and preparing the company for the next era of food retail. From AI-driven transformation to the duty of stewarding an organization with 129,000 teammates, he speaks openly about responsibility, succession, and what comes next in his career. His insights offer a masterclass in modern leadership during one of the most transformative decades in grocery retail.The episode also features a rich and timely news segment. Michael and Sylvain break down Health Canada's pause on cloned beef and swine approvals, a fast-moving story with major implications for transparency, labeling, science communication, and cross-border food integration. They examine why Canada's decision diverges from the U.S., where cloned-animal offspring have been permitted for nearly two decades — often without consumer awareness.The hosts then analyze the newest edition of the Canadian Food Sentiment Index, highlighting renewed concerns about food inflation, declining trust in grocers, shifting loyalty behaviours, and the end of Canada's “couponing era.” They explore evolving consumer habits, smarter comparison shopping, and the influence of younger digital-first generations.Other key topics include:• The Lancet's callout of ultra-processed foods — and why Sylvain believes the academic narrative is oversimplified.• The rapid rise of GLP-1 drugs and their early impact on grocery and foodservice behaviour.• Nutrien's reported decision to build a major potash terminal in Washington State rather than Canada.• The tangled story behind beef prices and the federal policies that may be limiting supply.• A big win for Canadian agriculture as GoodLeaf Farms raises $52 million to expand capacity and boost controlled-environment production. Go Here for the The Canadian Food Sentiment Index, Volume 2, no. 1  The Food Professor #podcast is presented by Caddle.

Canada has been managing sulfur throughout every stage of crop production for decades. Today, we're uncovering the lessons you can learn from their playbook.   On this episode of The Dirt, Mike Howell is joined by Ray Dowbenko, a retired senior agronomist with over 30 years of experience across the Canadian Prairies.
