Why America Is Frustrated With Canada

Life in Canada is getting more expensive, and a lot of people are asking why. David Leis talks with former trade minister Ed Fast about what’s happening with Canada’s economy right now—from trade with the U.S. to rising costs at home. They break down why Canada is struggling to keep up in a fast-changing world, and what it means for jobs, prices, and the future. You'll want to hear this.

Canada’s immigration system is under serious pressure, and people are starting to notice. Record-high immigration levels, a strained housing market, and growing concerns about fraud and public safety are forcing a tough question: is the system working the way it should? Researcher and journalist Riley Donovan breaks down what’s changed, what the latest reports are revealing, and why this debate is no longer avoidable. From temporary foreign workers to citizenship rules and labour shortages, the policies shaping Canada today will define what the country looks like tomorrow. What policy changes need to happen?

This is very, very serious for Canada. A major court decision in B.C. is raising a question Canadians never thought they’d have to ask: do you actually own your home… or could it be taken away? Lawyer Tom Isaac warns we’re in historic times—with massive uncertainty around land claims, property rights, and the future of Canada. If we don’t get our act together, this could be game over. There’s not enough clarity, not enough leadership, and the silence from government is deafening. This isn’t just an Indigenous issue—it’s a public policy failure that affects every Canadian, your home, your future, and the economy. So where are we going? And what happens if nothing changes?

Gas prices are rising again—and it’s only going to get worse according to energy expert Dan McTeague. With global tensions like the Iran conflict driving oil higher, Canada had a chance to protect itself… but didn’t. Dan, founder of Canadians for Affordable Energy and former Liberal MP, explains why government policies, taxes, and net-zero policies are keeping Canada’s oil in the ground while other countries cash in. The result? A weaker dollar, higher costs, and Canadians paying the price. So what needs to change and how bad could this get?

Canada’s politics are at a breaking point. Retired politician Preston Manning shares why public trust in politicians is sinking, how floor crossers are shaking democracy, and why Western provinces feel ignored while Quebec gains more control. Preston discusses Canada's stagnant growth, underused natural resources, healthcare bottlenecks, and the federal government’s overreach into provincial authority.

Canada’s economy is in trouble, says leading economist Jack Mintz. In this brutally honest conversation, Jack says jobs are vanishing, growth is stalled, and your wallet is taking the hit. Decades of high taxes, bad policies, and government overreach have left Canadians paying the price. Jack reveals the shocking truth: Canada is falling behind the rest of the G7, and ordinary citizens are feeling it the most.
