‘That speech was loony’: David Frum on Trump’s erratic UN speech and Carney’s misguided foreign policy

Leading author, journalist, and thinker David Frum and The Hub’s editor-at-large Sean Speer discuss this week’s major developments from the UN General Assembly meetings, including Prime Minister Mark Carney’s recognition of a Palestinian state and Donald Trump’s unexpected support for Ukraine. In the second half of the show, they discuss how the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Canada are trying to deal with the economic fallout from Trump’s tariffs and the inflationary risks of interest rate reductions.
