Navigating Tariffs and the Canadian-American Partnership ft. Bart Edes
In times like these, staying informed and engaged with political developments is more crucial than ever. With tensions between the US and Canada escalating over tariffs and trade wars, we need to tune in and understand the underlying issues at play.
If there's one expert who can shed light on our current political climate, it's Bart W. Édes. As a Professor at McGill University, Bart brings invaluable insights into the dynamics shaping global politics and economics. At McGill, he contributes to the Institute for the Study of International Development (ISID), focusing on social protection in developing Asia, digital technologies for development, and investment by ASEAN-based enterprises in Canada.
In our latest episode, Professor Édes explores the implications of the US’s tariffs on Canada, the motivations behind these moves, and what they mean for the future of US-Canada relations. From the fentanyl crisis to Canada’s response and the broader impact on global trade, this is a critical moment we all need to be paying attention to.
Stay informed, stay educated, and listen to experts like Bart W. Édes to better understand the political landscape and its impact on our countries and economies.
