  • Brian Crombie Radio Hour - Epi 1478 - The 1988 Federal Election with Dan McCarthy, & Murray Simser
    Oct 6 2025
    Tonight on The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian interviews Dan McCarthy and Murray Simser for a fascinating discussion on a question first raised during the 1988 federal election. In that year’s leaders’ debate, John Turner famously warned:

    “Once a country yields its economic levers, once a country yields its energy … once a country yields its agriculture … once a country opens itself to a subsidy war with the United States … then the political ability of this country to remain as an independent nation — that has gone forever, and that is the issue of this election.”

    They explore whether Turner was right — tracing Canada’s trade history from the McDonald Royal Commission and the 1988 Free Trade election, through the promises and pitfalls of economic integration, to the challenges of dealing with President Trump’s protectionist agenda. Dan and Murray share insights on how globalization has reshaped sovereignty, the missed opportunities for adjustment programs in the 1990s, and the ongoing question of how much sovereignty Canada can afford to give up in future trade deals.

    Their conversation also looked ahead: Should Canada pursue deeper integration with the U.S. through a security perimeter and labor mobility, or diversify trade with other global partners? And what does it mean for Canada’s political independence when the U.S. increasingly views us as its “51st state”?

  • Brian Crombie Radio Hour - Epi 1477 - The Crisis of Masculinity with Dr. Jacqueline Murray
    Oct 3 2025
    Tonight on The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian interviews Dr. Jacqueline Murray, PhD, FRHistS—University Professor Emerita (University of Guelph), Fellow of St. Michael’s College, and 3M National Teaching Fellow—for a thought-provoking conversation on masculinity. Drawing on her expertise in medieval history and gender studies, Dr. Murray explores how concepts of manhood have evolved across centuries and why these debates remain urgent today.

    Together they examine the so-called “crisis of masculinity,” unpacking the pressures young men face as media portrayals, social expectations, and cultural stereotypes reinforce narrow ideals. Dr. Murray challenges the notion that masculinity has ever been singular, noting that even in the Middle Ages, honor, integrity, and provider roles varied across classes and communities—offering a richer, more nuanced view than today’s headlines. They conclude this episode with a call to reimagine masculinity for the modern age—not around dominance or aggression, but around honor, moral compass, and self-worth. Dr. Murray argues society thrives when young men embrace diverse masculinities and when role models reflect integrity over bravado. It’s an eye-opening exchange connecting lessons from history to the challenges of today.

  • Brian Crombie Radio Hour - Epi 1476 - Active Investment with Alex Letko
    Oct 2 2025
    Tonight on The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian interviews Alex Letko. Alex Letko, Regional Manager for Central Canada at LetkoBrosseau and Portfolio Manager, analyzes markets, investment strategies, and the AI boom. He recalls the 1987 stock market crash, noting parallels with today as a few AI firms dominate valuations, similar to the dot-com bubble. He warns of challenges in infrastructure profitability but highlights the firm’s emerging markets fund focused on unmet needs like water, clean energy, and healthcare. Alex sees Canada facing recession risks but benefiting from a relatively strong fiscal position among G7 nations. He predicts Canada may outpace U.S. growth by 2026, with opportunities in infrastructure, natural resources, defense, and high-tech.
