Enjoy this special feed drop of our sister show "In This Economy?!" Reaction to Mark Carney's Budget 2026 has mixed. Some have criticized the price tag, others have praised the moves to spur investment. But above all, most analysts seem to agree that it doesn't contain anything earthshattering. But that's not to say it won't be affecting you, or that Canadians don't have opinions on it.
Host Mike Eppel is speaking with Jamie Golombek, Managing Director of Tax and Estate Planning with CIBC Private Wealth in Toronto, about changes to the tax filing process and what it means for you. Then, host Kris McCusker speaks with David Valentin, Principal at Liason Strategies, about how Canadians are feeling about the budget, and whether or not it changes how they view the government.

A big tech CEO. Scandalous affairs. A potential Chinese spy. It has all the hallmarks of a gripping thriller-- but the story is very real, and it's led to the fall of one of the biggest names in Silicon Valley.
Under piles of revelations, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has resigned with no clear successor, leaving the future of a company so critical to the stock market in question.
Host Caryn Ceolin speaks to Carmi Levy, a technology analyst and journalist, about the reported espionage operation against Huang, his advocacy for selling chips to China, and how the Trump administration let it happen. She's then joined by Mike Eppel, Senior Business Editor at 680 NewsRadio Toronto, about what Huang's resignation means for Nvidia and the stock market, and what it might mean for your investments.

Facial recognition is marketed as convenient, but it seems like the ease comes at a cost.

Ottawa is pledging to end homelessness within ten years, and is investing tens of billions of dollars to do so.
The investment will manifest across several housing and healthcare initiatives, including $2 billion for mental health and addictions infrastructure, a new Centre for Mental Health and Addictions in Winnipeg, as well as renewing the Canada Housing Benefit.
Besides the investment, the promise requires heavy buy-in from provinces and territories.

The livelihoods of some 500 Stelco workers are the crux of a recent showdown between Industry Minister Melanie Joly and the CEO of Ohio-based steel producer, Cleveland-Cliffs.
Joly wants the company to reverse its layoff of Canadian workers, claiming it goes against the original agreement the company signed when they acquired Stelco back in 2024. Cleveland-Cliffs, however, says they haven't broken any terms.
Host Caryn Ceolin speaks to Toronto Star business reporter Josh Rubin to breakdown the timeline of the Stelco drama, what legal action Ottawa could actually take against the steel giant, and whether or not the jobs lost are a chip within a complicated trade relationship.

"Masters of our Destiny"

Host Maria Kestane speaks with Craig Lord, a reporter and editor specializing in economics at The Canadian Press, about the message the government is trying to send with this budget, and how we're going to pay for it all.

Enjoy this special feed drop of our sister show "In This Economy?!" Just a few days after a U.S. midterm that ended with heavy losses for U.S. President Donald Trump's Republican party, many Canadians are hoping the new Democratic congress might be able to put a check on Trump's tariff agenda. The levies have helped to re-define trade across the border, and put tremendous pressure on Canadian businesses, no matter the size.
Host Mike Eppel is speaking with Steve Freedman, the owner and President of The Chesterfield Shop, a small business in Toronto, about how the trade war has affected his company, and whether he takes any hope from this week's elections.

The Blue Tsunami is starting to sink in for the U.S. G.O.P. who suffered a devastating loss in the midterms this week. Not only did the Democrats take control of Congress, they were able to successfully flip quintessential red states such as Texas, Maine and Kansas.
The question remains though, what is left of Trump's Republicans? Now that he essentially failed the referendum, the future of his power and party seems to be more unclear than ever.
Host Caryn Ceolin welcomes back Aaron Rupar, publisher of the Public Notice newsletter to discuss where the reigning Democrats go from here, and how the Republicans will pick up the pieces.

Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew called for the Indian Act to be abolished, which was met with echoes from Prime Minister Mark Carney who agreed that it should be scrapped.

Now that Question 10 has been put to rest, what about the other 9?
Albertans were asked a range of questions regarding the future of the economy, immigration system, and Canada's constitution.

Host Caryn Ceolin speaks to Jared Wesley, political science professor at the University of Alberta to discuss where this leaves Danielle Smith's leverage against Ottawa, how the urban-rural divide showed up in the results, and how the provincial NDP could pull up a seat at the table.

Since US President Trump took office, he vowed the Russian invasion into Ukraine would end within 'minutes'. Almost two years later, and ceasefire talks remain murky.
Within recent weeks, true colours have seemed to seep through diplomacy, including a diesel deal between the US and Russia - something Trump frames a way to lower cost of oil for Americans. Not only do Ukrainians have to deal with Russia's growing purse, but also with internet connectivity issues thanks to Starshield's service slowdown.
Host Maria Kestane speaks to Arne Kislenko, a history professor at Toronto Metropolitan University to discuss how vulnerable Ukraine is to Trump's personal agenda, and how deadly year six of the war could look like if the US continues to cozy up to Russia.
