Ottawa just announced a 20-year LNG deal with Germany and called it a milestone for Canadian energy. Here is what they did not put in the press release. Ksi Lisims has no final investment decision. The project cost has ballooned from $10 billion to $26 billion. The power line needed to run the facility has not been built. Analysts say 10 million of 12 million tonnes of capacity needs buyers before the board commits. Today's SEFE deal brings contracted capacity to 5 million tonnes. The FID was supposed to happen in 2025. It didn't. Hodgson says it could come within months. So Carney announced a 20-year supply deal for a facility that has not been approved for construction, is not yet funded, and does not have power. Jim and Iain break down the latest in Canadian energy 👇

A Canadian special forces signals aircraft circled Ottawa during the Freedom Convoy protests on at least five separate days. The plane flew in precise circular patterns that researchers confirmed are consistent with intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions. The military denied it was their plane. When a journalist produced the tail number and flight logs, the story changed to a training exercise. Trudeau told Parliament that Conservative MPs raising the issue were dangerously close to misinformation. The ATIP requests that would reveal what the plane was reporting and to whom have all been blocked. Brian Isted, a former Canadian Army captain and military intelligence analyst, explains exactly what that plane was capable of doing. Full interview ->

The question of what Canada would do if the U.S. ever genuinely withdrew from its North American defence commitments is one that the Liberal government does not want to address. The answer is that Canada has no credible independent defence capability. Not a reduced one. Not a degraded one. Essentially no capacity to defend ourselves. That is the reality underneath the elbows up campaign, the anti-American speeches, and the cooperative federalism messaging. Every night, we rest under the shield of American security. That is why Brian Isted says the anti-US rhetoric makes him sick. Watch the full interview where he connects the dots between a Canadian Forces plane caught scraping citizens phones, Access to Information requests that keep getting stonewalled, DEI recruiting that brought in non-citizens who started culturally in-fighting in training, and soldiers living in mold-filled barracks while picking mouse droppings out of their beds ->

Canada paid $24 million to help a Chinese company make baby formula and ship 85% of it to China. The Canada Royal Milk story has layers. Layer 1: a Chinese dairy giant built Canada's largest infant formula plant in Kingston Ontario. Layer 2: Canadian taxpayers contributed at least $24 million to the project. Layer 3: early planning documents show 85% of production was intended for export to China from day one. Layer 4: it used supply-managed Canadian milk priced and controlled to protect Canadian food sovereignty. Layer 5: supply management advocates defend this system against American trade pressure every CUSMA cycle. Layer 6: supply management is a major trade irritant cited in the CUSMA negotiations. Bottom line: the system designed to keep Americans out subsidized Chinese exports. If you were the Americans at the negotiating table, wouldn’t this make you furious? And as a Canadian, doesn’t it anger you that we ship baby formula made with Canadian milk out of the country while parents here face sky-high prices and shortages?

“Even a blind cat running the place couldn’t have done this badly.” Economist Catherine Swift says Canada’s rapid decline from the richest middle class in the world wasn’t incompetence alone. She argues that much of it was intentional, driven by net-zero ideology and regulation that has crippled our energy sector. Must-watch interview.

The student housing scheme that drove Brampton into default is one of the most underreported stories in Canadian housing. Residents were cramming 18 to 24 international students into 3,500 square foot homes, charging $800 a month each. That is technically an illegal rooming house. The government allowed it. Then wound down the foreign student program. The income went to zero. The mortgages did not. Those houses are now going into default in large numbers and taking neighbourhood values down with them. Ron Butler joined The Really Big Show to discuss why Toronto condos are down 40 to 50% from peak, why BC is about to follow Ontario off the same cliff, and why Mark Carney's housing plan will never build a single home anyone can actually buy.

Canada is supposed to be a transparent democracy, yet we have: - A Finance Minister, Champagne, whose wife works on the $90B Alto rail project - A Prime Minister, Mark Carney, whose wife’s firm Eurasia Group receives millions in government contracts - A Defence Minister, Anand, whose husband is tied to an undisclosed bridge deal This level of family-linked conflicts at the highest levels should alarm every Canadian.

The three CUSMA options on July 1: 1. Formal renewal for 16 years. Canada and Mexico want this. Trump said this morning that he is not looking to renew. 2. Formal withdrawal. Jim and Iain don't see this happening. 3. No action, triggering annual rolling reviews for up to 10 years. Which means CUSMA stays in place but with a screw that can be tightened every year. This will most likely happen and it is not a win for Canada. It is entering a permanent negotiation with a country that just said on camera it does not need anything Canada has. The Liberals think they're winning at home. But they're losing everything for Canada abroad.

Mark Carney told the House of Commons that Pierre Poilievre "does not believe in Canada." Poilievre's response deserves to be written out in full. "It is my patriotic duty to fight for the people who are suffering. Once again he is making the mistake of confusing Canada with the Liberal Party. We are not going to take any lessons on patriotism from a guy who stashes his corporate cash in a tax haven and moves his corporate head office out of this country. We are going to continue to fight for Canadian workers, Canadian consumers, and a strong Canada." No insult. No accusation. Just facts. Jim points out that lessons on patriotism are a bit rich coming from the man who moved Brookfield's head office to New York. Who kept his money in offshore structures. Who sat in Davos and lectured the world about Canada's sovereignty while his corporate interests were parked outside the country he claims to love more than his opponent does. The hypocrisy is bottomless.

Canada is the fourth largest oil producer on earth. It sends virtually all of its oil to one customer at a discount because it has no other outlet. The United States refines it and sells it back. Despite a decade of regulatory attack, ESG-driven financing restrictions, and a net zero banking alliance built by the man now running the country, Canadian oil companies did not collapse. They adapted. They lowered their break-even rates to levels nobody imagined possible fifteen years ago. They deserve an incredible pat on the back. They get a carbon tax instead. Check out the full interview with Richard Dias, CFA, global strategist at Ice Cap Asset Management and co-host of The Loonie Hour ->

We cannot sell our oil because it is not decarbonized. But we can sell our airports to the countries buying them with oil money? Saudi Arabia does not decarbonize its oil. The UAE does not decarbonize its oil. They are among the most likely buyers of Canadian airports if Carney proceeds with privatization. They will use oil profits to buy Canadian infrastructure while Canada sits on its own oil waiting for a carbon capture condition that makes no economic sense. We are applying a standard to ourselves that we do not apply to the countries buying our most valuable public assets. It doesn't make any sense.

In our interview with an old school journalist that is plugged into the Ottawa political scene, he boldly stated Pierre Poilievre will not stand for PM in the next Canadian election. He says there will be a caucus revolt with about 30 disgruntled MPs. Has the media hit job on Pierre Poilievre been that effective? More time is spent tearing down the opposition leader than there is holding power to account. Weird? Full interview #cdnpoli #conservatives

The race to net zero is real. Canada is winning. The rest of the world walked away. Martha Hall Findlay is asking why we're the only serious economy still competing. A race of one is not a race. It is a country spending billions of dollars. Constraining its most important industry. Accepting lower living standards for its citizens. And for what? To achieve at most 0.02% reduction in global emissions. While the rest of the world drills, burns coal, and buys Russian fuel, we martyr ourselves. In this segment from our interview Hall Findlay defends the IPCC's actual science while dismantling the way it has been reported for two decades, explains what the Russian invasion of Ukraine did to global energy priorities, and makes the case that the 14 Liberal MPs pressuring Carney on climate are fighting for a consensus that no longer exists anywhere outside Canada 👇 Full interview-> School of Public Policy

Carney says world wants ‘decarbonized oil.’ Meanwhile: Britain, one of the most aggressively pro-Ukraine governments in the western world, just changed its sanctions regime to allow the purchase of Russian jet fuel refined in India. Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, BlackRock, Morgan Stanley, and all five major Canadian banks have exited the Net Zero Banking Alliance. Japan has pledged to buy "record amounts" of U.S. LNG. Germany is debating keeping coal plants running past 2030. & Larry Fink of BlackRock, the man who co-led the ESG movement, publicly declared the era of climate religion is over. With the net-zero alliance clearly collapsing worldwide, Jim and Iain ask: why is Canada is still building policy around it?
