About this episode
“The Roundtable is now an exclusive offering for Hub Hero and Hub Fellow subscribers. You can become a Hub Hero today for as little as $2 a week.”From the transcript
In this paid subscriber-only edition of The Roundtable, Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer examine Prime Minister Carney's controversial New York Times interview discussing Canadian military planning for potential U.S. invasion scenarios. They argue the government is cultivating alarmism around Canada-U.S. relations for political advantage, undermining productive trade negotiations. They also explore how elite rhetoric has created the "madness of crowds", the business community's growing concern over escalating trade tensions, and the risks Canada faces as Mexico nears a comprehensive trade deal with the United States.
