Denis is joined by Kevin O'Leary as they break down geopolitics through the lens of power, leverage, and strategic assets.
As global alignment fractures, gold, metals, mining, and emerging technologies like AI are no longer just economic inputs — they’re tools of influence. China, the United States understand this. The question is whether countries like Canada do.
They discuss how resources, geography, and long-term strategy shape outcomes when pressure rises — and why hard assets matter more when globalization weakens.
This isn’t a hype cycle. It’s a power cycle — and gold, electricity, mining, and technology sit right at the center of it.
0:00 – The return of power politics
6:45 – China’s leverage and long-term strategy
14:10 – Trump, America, and pressure dynamics
22:30 – Canada’s position between major powers
31:40 – Geography, resources, and real influence
40:55 – What this means going forward
