About this episode
A couple of days out from another deadline, Canada is facing a new round of pressure from Donald Trump, with key sectors pushing for relief from U.S. tariffs. Is Mark Carney taking the right approach or does Canada need to toughen up and take a harder line with Trump? We get into it with Supriya Dwivedi in our feature interview (3:00) presented by Mercedes-Benz Edmonton West.

37:00 | Shots fired! Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff name drops Donald Trump's EA to raucous applause, but was it fair game? We explore why a years-old clip from Stephen Harper is making the rounds again (42:00), and in-fighting within the current Conservative Party. The Alberta Prosperity Project is in damage control (or are they?) after a speaker says the quiet part loud during a live stream (1:04:10).
