Is Canada’s Economy Quietly Breaking Apart? ft. Moshe Lander
Canada’s GDP debate misses the real crisis: falling living standards, weak productivity, and industries under pressure.
Moshe Lander explains why technical recession talk ignores the deeper economic problems Canadians feel every day.
In this episode, we break down:
• Why GDP is useful—but not the full story of Canada’s economy
• What a “technical recession” does and does not mean for Canadians
• Canada’s declining standard of living and the rise of the “me-cession”
• Agriculture, climate change, oil and gas volatility, and global shocks
• Why construction, manufacturing, and auto production are under pressure
• How tariffs, CUSMA uncertainty, and U.S. trade disruption affect Canada
• Canada’s AI gap, risk aversion, and long-term innovation challenge
• Why productivity may be Canada’s biggest economic crisis
• How oligopolies, weak competition, and low investment hurt wages
• The economics of sports, FIFA, stadiums, and major public events
