The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail.Greetings, you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites! Last week on the pod, we had Scott Aitchison on – Conservative Housing Critic. This week we're sticking with that theme – housing – so central to the last federal election and something I want to keep exploring with you.So on the pod today I want to look it at from a couple of perspectives. Experience on the ground and policy making. What's the current state of play in the market?  What's been the impact of measures to date? Has the situation improved?  How does the condo glut affect things?  And broadly, is the government plan a good one?We've assembled a housing panel to help answer those questions: Ron Butler + Mike Moffatt + Tyler Meredith!Ron Butler describes himself as a “big, old, overly opinionated mortgage broker, worried about the future of housing for average Canadians.” He's the founder of Butler Mortgage Inc, with over 30 years in the business.  And hosts of his own weekly pod, “The Angry Mortgage Podcast”, where he swears a f**k of a lot and shares his insights about the industry.Mike Moffatt is co-host of the “Missing Middle Podcast.”  His twitter bio says he's a Husband, Father, Brother, Son, Economist and Housing Guy. Among other things, he's an Assistant Professor in the Business, Economics, and Public Policy Group at Ivey Business School, Western University. He served as Director of Policy and Research at Canada 2020. And he's done extensive research on Canada's housing supply and the affordability crisis. Tyler Meredith is the former Head of Fiscal and Economic Policy for Prime Minister Trudeau and Ministers of Finance, Chrystia Freeland and Bill Morneau. Today, he's a Founding Partner at Meredith/Boessenkool Policy Advisors. And he was a co-host of the limited run podcast “Race to Replace”, right here at Air Quotes Media!Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

Just two years ago, the launch of GPT-4 required the support of hundreds of experts, intensive computing power, and vast coordination. Today, that same process could be executed by a team of five. That is not an exaggeration. It is a signal of just how rapidly AI development is accelerating. In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Gagan Tandon, Managing Director of AI & Data Services at TELUS Digital Solutions, to explore what is behind this extraordinary shift. From the evolution of AI chip design to the efficiency gains from smarter algorithms and open-source tools, Gagan offers a clear and grounded look at how AI training has become more accessible and less resource-intensive. But the bigger question is, what can we do with that efficiency? For Gagan, the answer lies in impact. Whether it is addressing bottlenecks in global supply chains, enhancing diagnostics in healthcare, or reducing fraud in financial services, these advances in AI development are not just theoretical. They are opening new doors for innovation across industries. We also explored how TELUS Digital Solutions supports enterprise transformation through its Fuel iX platform, which helps organisations transition from GenAI pilots to scalable, secure, ethical, and practical production systems. Gagan shared examples of how large-scale transformation can be approached with agility, especially when AI is aligned to specific business outcomes rather than simply layered on top of existing systems. This conversation goes far beyond model training. It is about what's next in AI operationalization, what business leaders should prioritize when it comes to adoption, and how to avoid common pitfalls as technology continues to evolve faster than many are prepared for. So how did we go from 300 engineers to five? What should enterprises be doing right now to take advantage of this momentum? And how can we make sure that efficiency does not come at the cost of responsibility? Join us as we explore the answers.

In this episode, we dive deep into MicroStrategy—the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin—and explore how Michael Saylor transformed a declining software business into a leveraged Bitcoin vehicle. We look at the company’s aggressive BTC acquisition strategy, its use of convertible debt, and the growing risks tied to its outsized Bitcoin exposure. Then, we shift to Canada and break down the Telus International fiasco. What started as Canada’s largest tech IPO now risks becoming one of the biggest shareholder disappointments, as Telus attempts to buy it back at a fraction of its IPO value.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, and Fidelity Investments Canada.Greetings, you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites! We're recording this one on Friday June 20th and tomorrow is National Indigenous Peoples Day in Canada. So, a conversation relevant to that and essential in this political moment. Our guest is National Chief Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak, of the Assembly of First Nations.Born and raised in the Pinaymootang First Nation, Manitoba, National Chief Woodhouse Nepinak began her term as National Chief in December 2023, becoming the youngest woman and mother to hold the position.Amongst a very long list of accomplishments, she was the lead negotiator for the First Nations Child and Family Services and Jordan's Principle class action lawsuit, resulting in over $40 billion compensation for First Nations children and families.National Chief Woodhouse Nepinak has lobbied Senate, the House, Cabinet Ministers and the Prime Minister's Office to fulfill mandates from Chiefs. And she continues to advocate to protect collective rights–Treaty, inherent rights, title and jurisdiction, the right to self-determination and all human rights.So today, in the context of Prime Minister Carney's ambitious “Build Agenda”. I want to talk about how we get these projects done in a way that First Nations communities feel part of and positive about.  What are the environmental and land issues that require pushback? What's fair compensation? What are the pressures and internal politics she faces? And where does the reconciliation agenda go, post-Trudeau?Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, TikTok Canada. Greetings you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites! I've been hunkering down this last week here in London, England and that's spurred me to want to dive a little deeper into the U.K., it's relationships with Canada and the U.S., and trade. How those relationships have changed – in a Carney and Trump context – and what new dynamics are driving it all.I've got just the chap to do that with.  Now 4-time Herle Burly guest, Andrew MacDougall!Andrew is the former Director of Communications for Prime Minister Harper. Now, he lives in London, where he's a Partner at Trafalgar Strategy, and writes about politics and current affairs, and appears frequently on TV, in all the best journalistic places. That includes his most recent piece in The Ottawa Citizen, a poignant tribute to his late father, one-time Ottawa city councillor and dedicated family doctor, Greg MacDougall, who passed just a couple of weeks ago on Easter Sunday. Give that lovely piece a read, if you haven't yet.Time permitting here after all the U.K. talk, I also want to get Andrew's take on Carney and Poilievre and the performance of the Conservatives vs. Liberals, in the election just passed.Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, TikTok Canada and Historica Canada. Greetings, you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites! I'm genuinely excited to have this man on the show for a conversation that's both of the moment, and critical. Naheed Nenshi, Leader of the Alberta NDP, is here.(Note: Since recording this episode, we've since been in contact with Premier Smith's Office and are hopeful to schedule that conversation soon).You know all about Mr. Nenshi and his powerful political brand. Former 3-term Mayor of Calgary. Named best Mayor in the World in 2014! Winner of the Alberta NDP Leadership on the first ballot about a year ago, with over 86% of the vote.He upped that to almost 90% in a leadership review just last weekend at the party's annual convention. Today, we'll talk more about his bio, background, and his decision to join the NDP. And then, the issues du jour ... Western alienation, Alberta separatism, and legitimate grievances about oil and gas. And also, what exactly is his argument to replace Premier Smith?Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, and TikTok Canada.Greetings, you curious, you courageous Herle Burly-ites! Election 45 is in the books. And after 5 and ½ weeks on the trail, Mark Carney is in office. This time, as an elected Prime Minister.I have a conversation today with one of the key players that helped him navigate that path. For both the Liberal Leadership race and the ensuing election. My aim, for the next 60 minutes or so, will be to get an insider's view of the whole story ... with Braeden Caley!When Prime Minister Carney was first sworn in back in March, Braeden was named Deputy Chief of staff in the PMO. On the campaign, he served as National Campaign co-director and senior advisor. He's a long-time Liberal operative, the Senior Director of Comms for the Liberal Party, playing key roles in the 2015, 2019 and 2021 elections. And if all of that weren't enough, Braeden was also President and CEO of Canada 2020, a leading progressive think tank in Canada.So today: Who is Mark Carney? What motivates him? What does he care about? And then the shape of the campaign itself ... we'll talk about what Team Carney expected to happen. And what surprised them. The 51 st State factor. Was it a welcome intrusion, from a purely political point of view? And then, the upcoming minority parliament. How is the Prime Minister going to approach achieving his agenda?Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

"My goal is to make people's jobs better — and to make them feel better about their jobs," says Mitch Lieberman, of Fuel iX within TELUS Digital. At the inaugural vCon conference, Lieberman demonstrated how Fuel iX is pioneering a new way to train and empower contact center agents using real-time simulations, AI-driven coaching, and a continuous feedback loop they call the Contact Center Agility Loop. Fuel iX is a democratized generative AI platform that enables users to build co-pilot and independent AI solutions. Mitch's team focuses on applying the technology to real-world contact center challenges — specifically agent performance, training, and customer satisfaction. From 1% Coverage to 100% Insight Traditionally, contact center managers reviewed only a tiny fraction of agent-customer conversations — often less than 1% of all interactions. Fuel iX changes that. By capturing and analyzing every customer interaction, the new Fuel iX Agent Trainer application can create realistic simulations for role-playing, evaluate agent performance in real-time, and provide instant coaching. "We're going live on May 1st," Lieberman announced. "We want to bring new agents to full proficiency faster, with better coaching, and make sure they feel confident and supported from day one." During a live demo, Lieberman showed how the system evaluates an agent's performance after handling a simulated customer complaint — complete with an automatically generated transcript, performance score, and improvement suggestions. The Contact Center Agility Loop: A Continuous Learning Framework Lieberman also introduced the Contact Center Agility Loop, a model that frames the before, during, and after of every customer interaction: Before: Training and upskilling through simulations like the Agent Trainer. During: Real-time support with an Agent Co-Pilot, offering dynamic knowledge retrieval and smart call guidance. After: Quality assessment that feeds back into training, ensuring continuous agent development. "We call it an agility loop because it's self-learning," Lieberman explained. "We can detect if a training module needs updating based on actual call performance, creating true operational continuity and growth." By tightly integrating coaching, support, and evaluation, TELUS Digital and Fuel iX aim to reduce onboarding time (speed-to-proficiency) and improve agent experience — making better service possible for customers and a better work environment for agents.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, and Netflix Canada.Greetings, you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites! We're recording this show 3 days before E-day. And it's a bookend of sorts: We started off the election cycle here on The Herle Burly with a pollster pod to set the scene data-wise ... discuss the core issues as they were emerging, i.e. Trump and Tariffs ... look at the opening state of play ... and anticipate how each the Parties might respond.Today, we end with another pollster panel to discuss how all of that played out over the course of the last 5 weeks. What's been the biggest surprise of the campaign in the data? What, if anything, has been predictable? Are Carney, Poilievre and Singh campaigning differently today than they were at the opening bell, and if so, why?With me for this are 2 of the best: Greg Lyle and Dan Arnold.Greg is the Founder and President of the Innovative Research Group. He's built a long and lauded career at the intersection of public policy, communications and public opinion, and he regularly appears on the country's biggest media platforms to discuss his findings.Dan is currently Chief Strategy Officer at Pollara, who, if you're a regular listener, you know has been supplying daily numbers to our sister pod, the Curse of Politics. He also led research strategy for the Liberal Party for their victories in 2015, 2019 and 2021. Fans of our Air Quotes Media universe will also know Dan from his hosting gig on Race to Replace.Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.
