Today, we're looking at the rising separatist movement in Alberta and Saskatchewan, with new polling data showing around 25% to 30% support for the motion prior to the election — only for that number to have climbed to 36% following Mark Carney and the Liberals' fourth straight consecutive electoral victory. Plus, Rebel boss Ezra Levant took a short trip to Bermuda, where he investigated Carney's firm, Brookfield Asset Management's ties to the notorious tax haven. And finally, unemployment in Canada is nearing 7% and the Bank of Canada warned yesterday that a prolonged trade war poses a serious threat to the national economy.

Interview with Troy Boisjoli, CEO of ATHA Energy Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/long-term-uranium-investors-find-value-in-volatility-6766Recording date: 24th March 2025ATHA Energy Corp. is making substantial progress on its Angilak uranium project in Nunavut, Canada, which shows promising signs of becoming a major uranium resource. CEO Troy Boisjoli, formerly Cameco's chief geologist, recently outlined the company's exploration success and future plans.The Angilak project, acquired just over a year ago, already boasts a historic resource of 43.3 million pounds at 0.69% U308. Last year's 10,000-meter drill program expanded the mineralization zones, with all 25 drill holes successfully intersecting uranium. This work helped establish an exploration target range of 62-98 million pounds.A recently completed structural study has confirmed a 31-kilometer trend across the Angikuni Basin, showing high-grade uranium samples up to 47.6% U308 on surface at multiple locations. This extensive surface mineralization is something Boisjoli claims he has "never seen" in the Athabasca Basin, where he previously worked.The project shares geological similarities with Saskatchewan's uranium-rich Athabasca Basin but appears to have significantly more surface mineralization. Even sandstone samples within the basin show uranium values of 10-20%, compared to typical Athabasca alteration halos that might show only 10-20 parts per million.ATHA is focusing most of its resources on Angilak exploration in 2025, with crews already mobilized. The company's strategy includes expanding known mineralization around the Lac 50 trend, testing the previously undrilled "Mushroom Lake" outcrop, and exploring the newly identified structural corridor.While Angilak is in a remote area, Boisjoli sees Nunavut as a mining-friendly jurisdiction, noting that approximately 50% of its GDP comes from mining activities. The company has secured agreements with local communities and multi-year exploration permits.In terms of scale, Boisjoli noted that overlaying the Angilak project area on the northeast Athabasca Basin would cover an area stretching from Rabbit Lake to Cigar Lake, encompassing multiple mines. He suggested that a resource in the 80-100 million pound range would make the project "very attractive."Boisjoli believes the current uranium market fundamentals are strong, describing it as "a generational period" comparable to the 1970s in terms of demand growth. With supply constraints expected as major mines approach the end of their productive lives, he sees a significant opportunity for large-scale projects in favorable jurisdictions like Canada.View ATHA Energy's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/atha-energySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Saskatchewan Open Farm Days provides a great opportunity for farmers to interact with and expand the public's understanding and trust of agriculture and to showcase the great agricultural products grown in the province.Farm and Food Care Saskatchewan Executive Director Clinton Monchuk says expanding the understanding of those who do not live on a farm of what farmers do to produce food is becoming increasingly important as we move years and generations into the future.The special announcement was made at Canada's Farm Show about the formation of a partnership between Startup TNT and Farm Credit Canada. Jesse Wiebe, Community Develop Lead with Startup TNT, made the announcement at the Launch Pad event.He says FCC will support their Agri-Food programming with the goal of raising $500,000 for startup companies across Canada.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

James goes on a well-deserved rant about his local government doubling the road tax on electric vehicles. Despite rarely using highways, his Nissan LEAF EV is now subject to a tax that funds road repairs outside the city and it's six times what a similar gas vehicle would pay. It's a move that highlights how some governments continue to punish EV owners instead of encouraging clean transportation. Join The Clean Energy Show's CLEAN CLUB on Patreon for exciting perks! Meanwhile, California has unveiled an ambitious plan to deploy six million heat pumps by 2030. However, despite incentives, the state is projected to fall two million units short of its goal. We discuss what's being done to promote heat pump adoption and how the initiative could serve as a model for the rest of the U.S. In a major shake-up for the automotive industry, Chinese battery and car manufacturer BYD has delivered what could be the final blow to the internal combustion engine. With their latest breakthrough in ultra-fast EV charging, vehicles can now recharge in just five minutes—matching the convenience of refueling a gas car. If this innovation takes hold, it could rapidly accelerate EV adoption worldwide. Also on the show: London is set to install 570 sidewalk-flush EV chargers, making it easier than ever for city dwellers to charge their vehicles. The Ultra Low Emissions Zone in London continues to be a success, reducing air pollution significantly and improving public health.
