What happens when a country built for one era wakes up in another? Journalist Matt Gurney lays out a candid diagnosis of Canada’s post-war hangover — a mix of nostalgia, denial, and misplaced optimism that’s slowing adaptation to new economic and political realities. This episode unpacks why the old playbook no longer works, what needs to change in Canada’s collective mindset, and how acceptance might be the most radical act left.
