  • Trump Looms Large in Canadian Election

    Trump Looms Large in Canadian Election
    Apr 25 2025
    In parliamentary elections next week, Canadians are expected to turn out in large numbers for the Liberal Party led by Mark Carney—in part as a reaction to Donald Trump. The Liberals had been down in the polls for months but Trump's tariff policy prompted voters to turn away from the Conservatives and back Carney, who had a long career in central banking and global finance. On this episode, Adam and Cameron discuss the Canadian economy—the ninth largest in the world—and how Carney plans to deal with Trump. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Trump's Economy

    Trump's Economy
    Mar 14 2025
    U.S. President Donald Trump's trade wars and other economic polices since his inauguration in January have helped wipe out some $4 trillion from U.S. stock markets. As of mid-March, the S&P 500 was more than 10 percent below its last record high. The idea some people had that tariffs would just be a threat by Trump, designed to get better trading terms from U.S. allies and adversaries, is flat-out wrong—at least for now. Adam and Cameron discuss what the impacts might be. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
