Today’s livestream tackles the growing frustration Canadians are feeling as major projects stall and the cost of living keeps climbing. Jim and Iain dig into why Canadians want a pipeline while the Liberals continue to delay in the name of climate policy, and whether Carney can actually secure a deal with the U.S. We look at productivity being ignored, approval timelines stretching into decades, and why obvious security vulnerabilities like ports remain overlooked. From soaring food prices and questions around “Buy Canada,” to government-funded research controversies, AI investment gaps between Alberta and BC, and increasing efforts to control public discourse, trust continues to erode. Add in Eby under pressure, strained UK–U.S. relations, rising tension with Venezuela, and Germany’s mounting problems — and it’s another packed episode asking hard questions about leadership, priorities, and where Canada is headed.
