Canada desperately needs a visionary, not a sugar water salesman

from The Really Big Show with Jim Csek &Iain Burns · host Jim Csek

On this episode of The Really Big Show, Jim Csek and Iain Burns tackle the absurdity of a "Buy Canada" policy that allows the Bank of China to qualify as a local supplier while actual Canadian energy firms "build big" in the U.S. to escape domestic gridlock. We look at the "poop show" of European diplomacy versus the reality of Musk and Rubio heading to China with Trump, and ask why the Carney government is still obsessing over plastic straws while Canada Post returns to the begging bowl for more taxpayer billions.From the investment-killing uncertainty of DRIPA in B.C. to the "mirage" of affordability, we’re digging into the numbers the mainstream media won't touch.Support The Really Big Show .
