Today's episode of the Scott Fox After 9 Podcast is a lighter one, with less politics and more news. Scott tees up the upcoming "Silent Date Guy — Tell All" special dropping this weekend, talks about Brad Marchand revealing he nearly signed with the Toronto Maple Leafs, and covers the Blue Jays' introduction of their newest player from Japan. The episode also looks at proposed changes to the U.S. childhood vaccination schedule and features reactions to Prime Minister Mark Carney's comments on America's supposed interest in annexing Greenland.

Scott also connects the timeline surrounding Chrystia Freeland's move to work with the government in Ukraine and discusses insights from the Canadian Taxpayers Federation about how last year's tax cut may be offset by new payroll taxes coming in 2026. All that — plus plenty of additional stories and smart perspective — in today's episode.
