Publisher Rudyard Griffiths and editor-at-large Sean Speer discuss the ongoing trade negotiations between Canada and the United States in the lead up to next Friday’s deadline, how recent agreements between the Trump administration and Japan and Indonesia show how President Trump is using trade negotiations to secure non-trade concessions from countries, and what it may mean for the Carney government. On the back half of the show, they also cover podcasting’s growing influence on our culture and politics precisely because it’s more authentic, democratized, and interesting than traditional news media.
