#192 - Political Antics and a Looming Recession

This week we tackle the pressing issues that are sending ripples across the nation. First on our radar is the impending recession that threatens to shake the Canadian economy. We'll delve into the factors contributing to this economic uncertainty, and explore what it means for businesses, individuals, and the country's future.


Next, we examine the political maneuvers in the Maritimes, where Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's efforts to win votes have been raising eyebrows. Is this a genuine commitment to the region or a calculated ploy? We analyze the situation and its implications on the political landscape.


Finally, we turn our focus to the ongoing controversy surrounding the carbon tax. Several provinces are standing up to Ottawa, vowing to cease collecting this controversial tax. We break down the arguments, the legal battles, and the potential consequences for environmental policies in Canada.


There’s a lot on the docket this week and we’re happy to offer you another hour of edutainment.
