MONEY FOR NOTHING - Government blowing your cash while Mark Carney takes a VACATION

40 minutes

On today’s episode of The Candice Malcolm Show, guest host Kris Sims takes aim at Mark Carney’s taxpayer-funded vacation and ask why Parliament is working fewer sitting days than ever, even as the cost of MPs and the federal bureaucracy keeps climbing.

Kris is joined by Money Talks host Michael Campbell for an in-depth look at how the Liberal government has squandered opportunities to develop markets for liquefied natural gas and other valuable natural resources, leaving billions of dollars on the table and undermining Canada’s economic position.

Michael explains how regulatory and political roadblocks — including Indigenous veto powers and last Friday’s Supreme Court ruling in B.C. that puts private property rights into question — are adding new uncertainty for resource development and investment.

They also dig into how these missed opportunities are leaving Canada at a disadvantage in a growing trade dispute with the United States, and why Ottawa’s energy and resource policies are out of step with global trends.

Kris and Michael break down the federal electric vehicle mandate, examining its massive cost, questionable benefits, and the serious implications for Canadian industries, jobs, and taxpayers.
