C'est dans ses nouveaux bureaux de plus de 600 m² que nous avons rencontré Sylvain Berneron, fondateur de la marque éponyme Berneron. Un espace qui symbolise l'ambition et l'envol de cette jeune maison horlogère, auréolée d'une consécration au GPHG 2024.Cela fait plusieurs années que je suis de près son parcours, témoin de chaque étape de son projet. Et ce qui frappe chez Sylvain, c'est sa capacité à repousser les limites et à donner vie à un produit qui lui ressemble. La collection Mirage en est la preuve éclatante, avec son mouvement asymétrique inédit — une audace technique et esthétique rarement vue en horlogerie.Au fil de notre échange, Sylvain revient sur son parcours personnel : son enfance partagée entre la mécanique et les motos avec son père, et la peinture et le dessin avec sa mère. Il nous raconte son passage chez BMW, sa découverte de l'horlogerie, et les coulisses de la création de sa marque, un pari risqué qu'il a embrassé avec courage.Si l'on dit que l'art, c'est la mise en péril de soi, alors Sylvain est bel et bien un artiste, et Berneron son œuvre vivante. Attachez vos ceintures : il a déjà un plan produit sur 10 ans, avec une nouvelle création chaque année.Si tu veux nous poser une question ou simplement discuter, ça se passe ici, sur ▶️ Instagram ◀️Si tu veux partager le podcast à un ami, tu peux utiliser ce lien : MERCI DU PARTAGEHébergé par Ausha.

Dans un contexte politique difficile, l'UNPI a publié son 19e rapport annuel de l'Observatoire des taxes foncières. Quelques chiffres : + 37% de hausse de la taxe foncière entre 2014 et 2024, + 1,7% en 2025 (nous sommes en période préélectorale), et une majoration également très importante des valeurs locatives. Dans ce contexte peu réjouissant, nous avons reçu plaisir Sylvain Grataloup, Président de l'UNPI. Dans quel état d'esprit se trouvent les propriétaires à l'annonce des chiffres de l'Observatoire ? Quelles suggestions l'UNPI formule-t-il à l'oreille de ceux qui nous gouvernent et alors même que le Projet de Loi de Finances viendra sans doute bientôt sur la table de travail de nos représentants à l'assemblée ? Autant de questions auxquelles notre invité répond.Une émission animée par Anne-Sandrine Di Girolamo.

In this dynamic episode of The Food Professor Podcast, presented by Caddle, co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois dive into the latest headlines shaping Canada's food and beverage sector before welcoming Kiran Mann, CEO of Brar's, one of North America's fastest-growing South Asian food manufacturers.The episode opens with a timely look at the hospitality boost from the Toronto Blue Jays' World Series run, a much-needed economic shot in the arm for restaurants and bars coast-to-coast. From there, Sylvain unpacks fresh Canadian inflation data, connecting global trade policy, tariffs, and drought-driven beef shortages to continued food-price volatility. He explains why Canadian beef prices will likely remain high until mid-2027, and how regional differences—from Saskatchewan's 5.5 percent food inflation to Ontario's 3.5 percent—highlight a widening national divide. The conversation also tackles layoffs at Molson Coors and Nestlé, changing consumer habits amid the Ozempic effect, and why Big CPG must reinvent itself as Canadians buy more locally produced goods. The duo rounds out the news rundown with an update on Agropur's cottage-cheese lockout and a surprising salmonella outbreak in dog treats, underscoring the need for better pet-food safety oversight.Then, Michael and Sylvain welcome Kiran Mann, an inspirational immigrant entrepreneur and visionary leader steering Brar's from family-run origins to a national and expanding international powerhouse. Mann shares her remarkable journey—from her roots in Amritsar, India, to leading a modern Canadian company that connects authentic Indian flavours with contemporary manufacturing innovation. She explains Brar's evolution across three categories—dairy, snacks, and sweets—including its beloved samosas, signature paneer, and pure-vegetarian veggie burgers.Mann introduces her proprietary “Harmonic System”—a leadership and operational philosophy grounded in balance, authenticity, and purpose. Her approach integrates people, process, and passion, ensuring that growth doesn't outpace culture or quality. The discussion explores how Brar's sustains traditional recipes while using food science to extend shelf life naturally, create sustainable packaging, and meet the needs of health-conscious, multicultural consumers. Looking ahead, Mann outlines her strategy of “depth and impact,” combining Canadian multiculturalism, sustainable supply chains, and bold U.S. expansion to make Brar's a global ambassador of modern Indian cuisine made in Canada.

In this episode of The Food Professor Podcast, presented by Caddle, co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois open with a wide-ranging conversation on global trade tensions, the state of Canadian agriculture, and the latest policy moves shaping our food economy — before turning to the fascinating story of Stephen Mitchell, President of Sprucewood Shores Estate Winery, Ontario's only beachfront winery on the Lake Erie North Shore.Michael and Sylvain begin by unpacking the economic aftershocks of U.S. tariff wars, as soybean farmers in America face devastating losses and look for government bailouts amid shifting Chinese trade alliances. Sylvain, speaking from Purdue University in Indiana, shares first-hand insights from conversations with American farmers reeling from collapsed exports and rising equipment costs. The hosts then pivot to the EV tariff dispute between Canada, China, and the U.S., discussing whether Ottawa should drop tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles to save Canadian canola farmers — a debate intensified by security concerns and diplomatic pressures. They also explore evolving Canada–India trade relations, the potential of government-run grocery stores, and Canada's climb to #7 in the Global Agri-Food Most Influential Nations report released on World Food Day, produced in partnership with MNP.Then, Michael introduces Stephen Mitchell for a compelling look at the business of craft wine in Ontario. Stephen recounts the family story behind Sprucewood Shores — from his father's dream of returning to his farming roots to the hands-on creation of a 52-acre lakeside vineyard and winery. He describes how the business evolved from a weekend “hobby farm” into a major local producer, now recognized for its Beach Glass Series, Classic Series, and signature Warm & Cozy mulled wine, distributed through the LCBO and beyond. Stephen details how the winery balances tradition with innovation — focusing on approachability, sustainability, and product diversification — while investing to capture new market momentum as Ontario's wine industry gains visibility and political support. He also shares marketing lessons learned through social media, tastings, and direct-to-consumer engagement, underscoring that success in wine is about constant connection and storytelling.Link Global Agri-Food Most Influential Nations interactive site and report released on World Food Day, produced in partnership with MNPhttps://www.mnp.ca/en/clients/food-and-beverage-processing/momentum-is-building-canadas-rise-in-global-agri-food#reportLink to Whole Foods trends report 2026https://www.freshfruitportal.com/news/2025/10/13/whole-foods-trends-2026/.

durée : 00:59:29 - Banzzaï du jeudi 09 octobre 2025 : Something Happens To Me - rediffusion - par : Nathalie Piolé -
In this powerful new episode of The Food Professor Podcast, presented by Caddle, co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois dissect the forces shaping Canada's food and agriculture economy—from farmland bubbles and provincial politics to the latest retail coffee price increases.The show opens with Michael's visit to Prince Edward County, where he talks about reconnecting with past guest Dan Sullivan of Rosehall Run Vineyards and celebrates the growing influence of culinary innovator and recent guest Charlotte Langley, whose tinned-seafood brand Nice Cans is redefining Canadian bespoke tinned fish dining. Sylvain weighs in on stalled interprovincial trade and Premier Doug Ford's ongoing feud with Crown Royal and Diageo, exploring the politics of booze, bans, and consumer choice - and his support of ice cream maker Chapman's. The hosts also spotlight the wild-blueberry disaster in Atlantic Canada, where drought and fires have slashed yields by up to 70%, threatening regional processors and exports.Then the conversation shifts to a fascinating—and controversial—guest: Trent Klarenbach, BSA AgEc PAg, Special Crops & Grain Marketing Analyst and Founder of Klarenbach Research. A former Saskatchewan farmer turned analyst, Trent explains how he uses technical analysis—tools typically reserved for stock markets—to assess farmland value. His research suggests land in Saskatchewan and Alberta may be overbought, echoing warning signs that preceded the dramatic farmland correction of the 1980s.Trent describes how investor psychology and market cycles shape agriculture just as they do equities, applying RSI and Elliott Wave patterns to farmland data. He details his own journey through farming's booms and busts, his motivation for building a subscription-based insights service, and the mixed reactions he's received from farmers, lenders, and ag-finance professionals. For listeners seeking deeper understanding of the economics—and emotion—behind land ownership, his approach reframes how to think about farm equity and risk.The episode wraps with Michael and Sylvain analyzing temporary-foreign-worker fines, Tim Hortons' price move and Starbucks store closures, and Donald Trump's revived talk of U.S. dairy access. They close on a high note—what soaring bullion signals about global uncertainty and food-price volatility.Website: https://www.klarenbach.ca/YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@KlarenbachResearchPodcast:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL28YhqW-kvxkfu1I6xFdtaa5BN1GVoHxa&si=_iVqyKVYCkfm6S1m The Food Professor #podcast is presented by Caddle.

Pour en savoir plus sur comment trouver le bonheur et remplir ta vie d'épanouissement, je te donne rendez-vous sur ma lettre: https://www.sylvainviens.com/newsbetter/ Et si toi aussi, comme Audrey, tu t'étais simplement perdue en chemin ? Tu as tout pour être heureuse : une belle carrière, une famille, une maison… et pourtant, à l'intérieur, quelque chose s'est éteint. Ce sentiment de vide, cette impression de vivre en pilote automatique, tu la connais peut-être aussi. Dans cet épisode, je te partage l'histoire d'Audrey — une femme brillante, sensible, lucide — qui s'est un jour rendu compte qu'elle avait coché toutes les cases… sauf celle du bonheur. À travers son message bouleversant et les étapes que nous aurions traversées ensemble, je t'invite à te reconnaître, à te questionner et surtout à rallumer ta propre flamme intérieure. On y parle de fatigue mentale, de surcharge émotionnelle, de ces pensées en boucle qui nous coupent de la joie de vivre. Mais aussi de reconnexion à soi, de sérénité retrouvée et de cette paix douce qui renaît quand on apprend à respirer de nouveau, à écouter son corps et à se faire passer en premier — sans culpabilité. Dans cet épisode, tu comprendras : Pourquoi tant de femmes réussies se sentent vides malgré une vie « parfaite ». Comment calmer le mental, sortir du mode « pilote automatique » et retrouver ton énergie vitale. Quelles croyances inconscientes t'enferment encore dans la peur, la perfection ou la charge mentale. Comment rallumer ton plaisir, tes passions, ton feu intérieur — même après des années d'oubli. Et comment redéfinir ton cap de vie pour avancer enfin vers une existence alignée, claire et vibrante. Cet épisode est une invitation à te reconnecter à ton essentiel. Parce qu'il y a toujours une braise qui attend sous les cendres. Et parfois, il suffit d'un souffle, d'un mot, d'un regard pour la rallumer. Si tu te reconnais dans le parcours d'Audrey — cette femme forte, sensible, un peu épuisée de tout porter — cet épisode te fera du bien. Tu comprendras que tu n'es pas seule, que tout peut changer, et que le bonheur ne se trouve pas dans ce que tu fais, mais dans la façon dont tu choisis de vivre.

In this lively new episode of The Food Professor Podcast, Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois dive into the latest food, retail, and agriculture headlines before sitting down with a fascinating guest: Bryce Lobreau, Co-Founder of 8 Acres, one of Canada's most innovative organic and grass-fed beef brands.The episode begins with a timely look at Canadians' Thanksgiving dinner costs for 2025. Sylvain shares the results of his annual food price survey, which shows some rare good news: overall holiday meal costs are essentially flat compared to last year, with turkey and fresh produce slightly cheaper. However, canned items like cranberries and pumpkin pie fillings are more expensive due to tariffs on aluminum packaging. The hosts debate changing consumer choices at Thanksgiving, including a move toward lamb and premium proteins.From there, Michael and Sylvain analyze the broader North American food landscape. They unpack the impact of a potential U.S. government shutdown on Canadian agriculture, food inspections, and border trade. The duo also explore the ongoing pistachio recall tied to salmonella contamination, with Sylvain warning consumers to toss any pistachio products they may still have at home. Dairy access in trade negotiations between Canada and the U.S. also comes under scrutiny, with Sylvain highlighting the structural problems in Canada's supply management system. Other hot topics include soybean market disruptions caused by Chinese buying patterns, Canada Post strikes affecting grocery flyers, wildfire impacts on crop yields, and the surprising growth of sushi sales in North American grocery stores.The second half of the show features an in-depth conversation with Bryce Lobreau of 8 Acres. Bryce shares his journey as a third-generation Manitoba farmer who pivoted into organic cattle ranching to survive tough agricultural markets. He and his business partner, Ben Stewart, have built 8Acres into a pioneering national brand, raising over 3,000 head of cattle across certified organic and grass-fed programs. Bryce explains the challenges of scaling in today's cattle market, from soaring calf prices to attracting new ranchers to transition into organics.Listeners will also hear how 8Acres is embracing regenerative agriculture practices, integrating livestock into cropping systems, extending grazing periods, and even experimenting with live-stream farm cameras to build transparency with consumers. Bryce candidly discusses “farmer guilt” around pricing, the importance of branding in Canada's protein sector, and his vision of making organic and grass-fed beef mainstream in Canadian grocery stores over the next decade.

Sylvain Berneron is in high demand, and so are his watch designs. Just last week, a 34-millimeter version of his debut time-only watch, the Berneron Mirage, came up for public auction for the first time, and bidding soared beyond the CHF80,000 high estimate to fetch a staggering CHF241,300, including fees. Having previously worked in the automotive industry with BMW, Berneron is a designer who has now chosen watchmaking as the canvas to express himself and his ideas. After departing the big brand corporate atmosphere of Breitling, he's enjoyed significant success so far with his own brand and has just unveiled his second collection - Quantième - and an annual calendar that brings a unique, yet superbly finished, movement architecture to the complication that aims to simplify setting and provide a stress-free experience for the user. Sized at just 38 millimeters in diameter and 10 millimeters thick, the dial design is both stunning and innovative in the way the time and date are displayed, while the platinum case features removable (and replaceable) steel elements that act as bumpers and guards for the precious metal. But this podcast is about business, and Berneron indulged us with a lengthy, candid, and exceedingly in-depth discussion about his plan for building a brand and sustainable company that bears his family name. He tells us why he's set up shop in a Swiss industrial park, the business strategy behind limiting production to less than 25 of each specific watch per year, and why he's turned down creative jobs at Rolex and tens of millions of dollars in financing from potential investors despite having barely a holiday or weekend off for the last half-decade. It's a deep dive into the business strategy and plan of a young, driven, red-hot watch brand that's trying to make it for the long haul. We hope you enjoy.
