Premier Scott Moe joins Evan and Kristjan for a wide-ranging conversation that connects farming roots, political leadership, and Canada’s place in a rapidly shifting global economy. Moe reflects on growing up on a mixed farm in Saskatchewan, what drew him into politics, and why thick skin, long-term thinking, and collaboration matter in public life. He shares how early experiences shaped his belief that provinces, communities, and industries succeed together or not at all.
The discussion moves from COP28 to China, unpacking how Saskatchewan approached global trade conversations with a practical, unapologetic focus on food, fuel, and fertilizer. Moe explains why relationships still matter in international trade, how recent efforts helped restore agricultural market access, and why working with federal governments you may not agree with is sometimes essential to getting real outcomes for producers.
They dig into the rising cost of production, business risk management, regulatory drag, and the long-term opportunity in value-added agriculture. Moe lays out why exporting ingredients instead of raw commodities is key to stability, how rural and urban Saskatchewan are more connected than people think, and why, despite uncertainty, he remains bullish on agriculture’s future when Canada shows up prepared and in the room.
