Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss Carney's budget debut tomorrow and what Canada needs most in response to Trump administration tariffs. The conversation centres on Canada's deepening productivity crisis, and whether Ottawa's approach of picking winners through large-scale industrial projects addresses the fundamental issues of declining per capita GDP and living standards. They argue that the government should instead focus on tax reforms and reducing barriers that would unleash entrepreneurship across thousands of small and medium-sized businesses.
