Canada Is Borrowing Billions... Who Pays the Price?

Today we're breaking down the possibility of a snap election in Canada—what's behind the timing and who's really pulling the strings? With the Liberals leading in the polls and the Conservatives suddenly quiet, what's the strategy at play? Plus, we tackle Mark Carney's bold move to scrap the Consumer Carbon Tax (and whether he has authority to do so), Danielle Smith taking a stand for Alberta's resource production, and finally, the big question: where does your loyalty lie—with your family or your country?

In this episode, we break down Mark Carney's rise to Liberal leadership and what it means for Canada's future—especially as he positions himself to become Prime Minister without Canadians having a direct say in the process. They discuss how our voting system allows this to happen and the growing frustration among voters. With Pierre Poilievre being painted as Canada’s version of Donald Trump, is this just political maneuvering, or is there truth behind the comparison? And with the NDP’s history of propping up the Liberals, will Jagmeet Singh once again back their leadership, or could we see a shift?

Kirk Lubimov returns to the show to discuss what economic independence would look like for Canada. What if we made the most of our own resources and relied less on other countries? We also discuss the effects of tariffs, the future of AI and quantum computing, and whether the Conservative Party is really conservative anymore.

Our conversation today starts with the U.S.'s new Department of Government Efficiency. Is it a model Canada should follow, or just more bureaucratic window dressing? Then we turn to Mark Carney's growing influence in the Liberal Party and what his potential leadership could mean. We also examine the Liberals' internal election disqualifications, raising questions about political control and transparency. Finally, we break down the tariffs set to hit Canada in the coming months, their economic impact, and what's at stake for Canadians. Recorded in a special studio deep in the heart of Texas, this episode brings insight you won't want to miss!

With crippling tariffs, a weak economy, and no clear direction from any of our parties' leaders, Canada is at a breaking point. Mark Carney is being positioned as Canada's economic saviour, but is he really the answer? Meanwhile, the Conservative Party seems lost—no bold ideas or clear vision. Joining us is Kirk Lubimov, an expert in global economics and trade policy, to break down Canada's uncertain future. Are we headed toward economic collapse? Is becoming the 51st state inevitable? What does it really mean to be Canadian today? This is the debate Canada needs to have. Watch, share, and tell us—is Canada failing, and who's to blame?

In this episode, we're honoured to welcome back Martin Pelletier to the show. As a seasoned portfolio manager, he brings insight into Canada's economic future, the investment landscape, and the impact of U.S. tariffs on Canadian industries. With shifting political and financial dynamics, what lies ahead for businesses, investors, and everyday Canadians?
