Preston Stewart and Ben Wheeler are joined by guest John Fowler, a former Australian diplomat, to discuss various global political issues, including the recent Canadian elections, the influence of Donald Trump on international relations, and the complexities of U.S.-Canada relations. They evaluate Trump's first 100 days in office, focusing on national security and foreign policy, and assess the implications for American soft power in the future. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the complexities of global trade dynamics, focusing on the reactions of markets to political statements, the intricacies of trade policies with the EU, and the ongoing trade war with China.
