NEW - The Debate Canada Needs to Have and Keeps Not Having

A technical recession, a denied emergency debate, and a prime minister who promised less red tape. The Monday panel takes stock of where things actually stand.   Showing up is not the same as delivering. Mark Carney visited a Toronto synagogue to speak directly to the Jewish community after protests in Montreal included nooses and effigies on public streets. Jimmy Zoubris says the visit mattered. The speech, which produced an advisory council as its headline announcement, did not match the moment it was supposed to meet.   Two quarters down, and the fireworks aren't the point. Canada is the only G20 nation currently in a technical recession, and the opposition's request to debate it publicly was shut down. Lesley Kelly wants someone to stand up for affordability, not just complain. Jimmy Zoubris wants proposals with enough detail to pressure an MP over. And the conversation keeps landing on the same frustration: taxes that keep climbing, infrastructure that doesn't, and a bureaucracy that would spend eleven million dollars figuring out what to do with ten.   Topics: Canada technical recession 2025, Mark Carney antisemitism response, grocery surge pricing Canada, small business taxes red tape, Canada GDP decline   GUEST: Lesley Kelly | highheelsandcanolafields.com GUEST: Jimmy Zoubris Originally aired on 2026-06-01
