About this episode

The episode discusses Canada's energy policy changes and their implications for the economy with expert Heather Exner-Pirot.

Today, we are joined for the fourth time by energy and policy expert Heather Exner-Pirot to discuss Canada's dramatic shift in energy policy and what it means for the country's future. We break down the push to build new pipelines, the growing role of nuclear power and critical minerals, and why Ottawa is embracing major infrastructure projects after years of opposition. We also examine the Bank of Canada's latest interest rate decision, why policymakers are keeping a close eye on oil prices, and what it all means for inflation, housing, and the Canadian economy.
