Donald Trump is headed back to the White House on Monday, meaning
his tariff threats could become a reality and wreak havoc on the
Canadian economy. So what’s Canada’s opening move if Trump
charges forward? Host Catherine Cullen checks in with premiers at
their important meeting in Ottawa this week to strategize a
response, but not everyone is on the same page. Canada’s
ambassador to the U.S. joins the show to discuss the federal
government’s plan, and an economics professor explains which
provinces are the most at risk.

Next, an author and staff writer for The Atlantic explains why,
of all the policies Trump has flirted with over the years, the
incoming president is so wedded to the idea of tariffs and how
Canada should prepare itself for a possible trade war.

Finally, as more candidates step up or step back from the Liberal
leadership race, two Parliament Hill watchers break down the
contest so far and the questions the candidates will need to
address.

This episode features the voices of:

Ranj Pillai, Premier of Yukon

Scott Moe, Premier of Saskatchewan

Wab Kinew, Premier of Manitoba

Kirsten Hillman, Canada’s ambassador to the United States.

Trevor Tombe, economics professor at the University of
Calgary

David Frum, staff writer with The Atlantic

Tonda MacCharles, Ottawa bureau chief for the Toronto Star

Christopher Nardi, parliamentary reporter for the National
Post
