Amanda Galbraith, co-founder and president of Oyster Group, and David Coletto, founder and chair of Abacus Data, join Sean Speer to discuss President Trump's decision not to renew CUSMA. They analyze whether Canadians have become desensitized to trade uncertainty, and debate the political risks of bilateral U.S.-Mexico negotiations.

In the second half, they explore Pierre Poilievre's shadow cabinet shuffle and assess the Conservatives' attempt to refocus attention on affordability. They also address internal Conservative tensions and question whether Poilievre should elevate his team over his personal brand.
