Ford vs. Washington, Monkey Madness, and Facial Recognition at the Border
Doug Ford's anti-tariff TV ads ruffle feathers in Washington, with Trump furious and U.S. Ambassador clashing with Ford’s trade advisor. John weighs in on whether Doug is playing the long game or blowing up the Canada-U.S. trade file.
Guests include:
Franco Terrazzano, Federal Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, exposes jaw-dropping government spending on stress balls, branded apples, and even AI garbage cans.
Lori Sheeran, Professor of Anthropology at Central Washington University, explains the real dangers of escaped lab monkeys in Mississippi—and whether monkeys actually barter with tourists.
Tamir Israel, Director of the Privacy, Surveillance & Technology Program at the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, breaks down the U.S. border’s new biometric surveillance rules and what Canadians should know about facial recognition risks.
Plus, John unpacks the political theater around Mark Carney, Trump, Doug Ford, and trade strategy.
