John Ibbitson & Darrell Bricker: Is Canada at a Breaking Point?
Darrell Bricker and John Ibbitson join Steve to discuss their new book, Breaking Point: The New Big Shifts Putting Canada at Risk, how the country is in the middle of the greatest political crisis it has ever faced, the rising anger young people feel about housing prices and gig jobs, Trudeau’s failures as a prime minister, and how he destroyed the Canadian consensus on immigration. They also discuss the growing regional tensions in Quebec and the Prairies, the looming threat of Trump and tariffs, whether Carney (or Poilievre) can meet this turbulent and uncertain moment, and how exactly to bring this country back from this “breaking point.”
