In this episode, Jay sits down with Brian Paes-Braga to break down the most significant geopolitical and economic shifts facing Canada in decades: the fight for critical minerals, the end of globalization, and the United States’ race to secure resource independence. Brian explains why Canada is sitting on a once-in-a-generation prosperity opportunity and how permitting, immigration, national policy, and foreign investment have pushed the country toward stagnation.
