- Oil prices, the Canadian dollar, and how energy markets could reshape Canada’s economic outlook
- Europe, India, China, Brazil, and the emerging trade and defence relationships Canada may pursue next
- Arctic security, Ukraine’s military innovation, and the future of defence procurement and drone warfare
- Hosts: Mike Wixson
- Guests: Mark Morris
This conversation looks at Canada’s place in a changing world through trade, defence, energy, and geopolitical strategy, with a focus on tariffs, NATO, the Canadian economy, and global alliances.
