Trump’s Tariffs: The US, Canada, and the rest of the world

It’s a mistake to think that Canada and any team of trade allies we can muster will be able to force the US to back down from Trump’s tariffs. Certainly not in the short run.

The US is committed to tariffs. They know it’s going to create hardships. They know some businesses are going to fail. They know some people are going to lose jobs. They know products are going to cost more. It’s not that they don’t care about hardships. They are committing to see if they can withstand these hardships in order to reacquire a lot of the manufacturing jobs that left America over the last three or four decades.

And it’s not all about jobs either. It’s also about critical industries that have vacated America. It makes no sense that the US would rely on China for pharmaceuticals and rare earth minerals. Yet that situation is exactly where America finds itself in 2025.

If you’d like a deeper understanding of what is unfolding around the world, this podcast is an absolute ‘must’.

Why Conservatives Flipped to Supporting Trump’s Tariffs

Donald Trump is the only one telling the American economy, “You have cancer!”

Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation, says, “The treatment is going to be a little painful.” Kevin responds to criticisms that the Heritage Foundation has changed its position on tariffs, explains why the president’s treatment of Canada may be a “tactical error,” and says it’s time for tax cuts, deregulation, and to stop the “fuzzy math happening in Congress” and cut the budget.

They discuss nuclear energy, the Chinese Communist Party, the DOGE, and how the socialist president of Mexico “understands Trump.”

They both agree that we are experiencing the “second American revolution” and lauded the gutting of the Department of Education and the vision of JD Vance, while warning that “not everyone in Silicon Valley is our friend.”

In the end, they have to ask, is Donald Trump moving too fast?

David Leis | Dennis Modry | Jeff Rath

Frustrated. Fed up. Ready for change. That’s how many Albertans feel after years of being sidelined by Ottawa.

In this eye-opening episode, David Leis sits down with Dr. Dennis Modry and Lawyer Jeff Rath—two key voices behind the Alberta Prosperity Project—to talk about the growing push for sovereignty.

Is Alberta better off on its own? Why are more people demanding a referendum? And what would independence really look like—for the economy, Indigenous communities, and Alberta’s place in the world?

We get into everything: Trudeau’s policies, the recent election, the TMX pipeline, Western alienation, and why some say the current system is simply ungovernable. If you think the separation talk is just noise… you’ll want to hear this. (83 minutes)
