Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss the turbulent week in Canada-U.S. trade relations, from Prime Minister Carney's underwhelming primetime address and mixed signals on sectoral trade deals to President Trump's explosive reaction to the Ontario government's Reagan ad. They explore how the apparent breakdown in trade negotiations may actually benefit the Carney government politically by justifying deficit spending and empowering domestic interests who prefer the status quo over meaningful economic reform.
On the back half of the show, they discuss how modern conservatism is drifting away from Reagan-inspired principles of limited government and free markets, with conservatives increasingly embracing culture war politics and deficit spending over economic liberty and fiscal discipline.
