President Trump has been in office for just a week and has already announced several economic and political measures. It’s his 25% tariff threat on Canadian imports - which could be imposed as soon as February 1st - that has Canadians on the edge of their seat. With Trudeau having stepped down as Prime Minister, and a federal government prorogued until March 24th, how is Canada preparing to address the impending tariffs? And how might Canada’s and America’s shifting political landscape influence fiscal policies, and your investment strategies? Joining the show today to unpack all this and more, are Tim Hudak, Partner at Counsel Public Affairs - one of Canada’s leading public affairs agencies, and former Federal Minister and NAFTA Council Member, James Moore.
