    Fastened to a Dying Animal: How to Survive the Collapse of the U.S. Empire

    Is the American empire officially in its "dying animal" era? Author and cultural critic Stephen Marche certainly thinks so and for the first time in his career, he’s feeling downright optimistic. In Stephen's view, the collapse of U.S. global dominance isn't a tragedy for Canada; it's a once-in-a-generation opportunity to ditch our toxic relationship with American markets, invest in our own sovereignty, and reinvent ourselves on the world stage.  Host Jesse Brown isn't quite ready to pop the champagne. Armed with a weak Canadian dollar, decaying public infrastructure, and the words of Leonard Cohen, Jesse steps into the ring to challenge Stephen’s sunny outlook. Will global chaos force Canada to finally thrive on its own, or are we forever tethered to a dying beast?

    After threatening to tariff Canada in response to wildfire smoke crossing the border, Trump announces 50% tariffs on a long list of products, ostensibly in response to Canada’s "discriminatory" trade practices.

    Unsealed U.S. indictments allege that India-based organized crime networks orchestrated political assassinations, extortion schemes, and large-scale drug trafficking across North America and Europe.

    The Canadaland Guide to Kevin O’Leary

    Kevin O'Leary is not just a rich Canadian businessman — he's a phenomenon. He's a media phenomenon both here in Canada and in the US. And he's known for one thing: being an a*****e.  But is he really an a*****e? Is it just a schtick? A character? A clown that he plays on TV to entertain us all? Or is it all sincere? Does he mean all of the stuff he says? And if he does mean it, why should we believe anything he says? Is he actually an expert? In life, in business, in politics?  We tracked down the people who worked with him as his legend was being spun, including the guy that "discovered" him.

    Meta's Gas-Guzzling $13 Billion Data Centre Coming to Alberta

    Danielle Smith announces a $13 billion Meta data centre in Sturgeon County, Alberta, set to be the largest in Canada. In contrast to Carney’s federal A.I. strategy, which promised clean, sovereign, and ethical A.I.,  Smith refers to the Meta project as a “digital refinery,” fuelled by a natural gas plant that will be built to power it.  Instead of digital sovereignty, is Canada going to end up being a branch-plant, resource economy at the service of Big Tech?  Plus, the best Canadian films you probably haven’t seen, and Big Tech’s new hiring target: philosophers.  Host: Jesse Brown Credits: James Nicholson (Producer), Kallan Lyons (Associate Producer and Fact Checking), Caleb Thompson (Mixing and Mastering), Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Jesse Brown (Editor) Guest: Douglas Soltys Further reading:  Big Tech joins Calgary Stampede oil bash, as Alberta courts data centres | CBC News Meta to build $13 billion data centre in Alberta, largest outside the U.S. | Globalnews.ca 'Responsible corporate citizen:' Meta, Premier Danielle Smith defend $13B Alberta mega data centre plan - Edmonton JournalSupersized data centres are coming to Canada.

    Canada Wins at Booze but Did Trump Win at Bridge?

    Booze, bridges, and the fog of the trade war. Canada’s booze boycotts are working, and Senator Adam Schiff says it’s unfair and devastating for the California wine industry. Isn’t that the point?  Meanwhile, Carney offers concessions to Trump on the Gordie Howe Bridge deal. Did we get bamboozled?  Plus, a Wall Street Journal deep dive paints Carney as the leader of the resistance against Trump.  Host: Jesse Brown Credits: James Nicholson (Producer), Kallan Lyons (Associate Producer and Fact Checking), Caleb Thompson (Mixing and Mastering), Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Jesse Brown (Editor) Guest: Douglas Soltys Further reading:  Canada’s boycott of U.S. wines ‘causing devastating harm,’ California senator says - CTV NewsRepublican bill targets Canada's provincial booze bans | CBC NewsU.S. “We demand Canada stop this alcohol boycott that isn’t working and also we don’t even care” - The BeavertonOntario runs $8M tab storing U.S. alcohol, as province's plans for stockpile still uncertain | CBC NewsHow will Gordie Howe Bridge profit-share deal work between Canada, U.S.? | Globalnews.caCanada gives share of Gordie Howe Bridge profits to U.S. to get Trump go-ahead - Financial PostTruckers say Gordie Howe bridge changes everything - CTV News 42% of Canadian manufacturing companies have moved to the U.S. or are considering it, and Ottawa is running out of time to stop them - The HubJohn Ivison: Carney may lead the Trump ‘resistance,’ but Canadian casualties are mounting - National PostThe Reverse-Centaur’s Guide to Criticizing AI (05 Dec 2025) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow The First Chinese EVs Reaching Canada Aren’t The Bargains Buyers Were Promised | Carscoops   Join Jesse Brown at the University of Waterloo for: Campus Town Hall - Civil Conversations 7pm | July 21st, 2026 University of Waterloo Pearl Sullivan Engineering Building PSE 7303 Supported by Heterodox Academy Sponsors: Fizz Mobile: Visit fizz.ca and activate a first plan using the referral code CAN40 to get 40$ off and 10GB of free data.

    Mark Carney's System of Secrecy

    Canada’s Access to Information Act was supposed to give Canadians a window into their government. But more than 40 years later, critics say the system is failing — with delays, redactions, and a culture of secrecy. Host Noor Azrieh speaks with transparency activist Ken Rubin, journalist Dean Beeby, and lawyer Matt Malone about the fight over the future of access to information in Canada, and why proposed changes could make it even harder to hold governments accountable. Host: Noor Azrieh Credits: Aviva Lessard (Senior Producer), Sam Konnert (Host/Producer), Noor Azrieh (Host/Producer), Annie Tuba (Producer), Caleb Thompson (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Jesse Brown (Editor), Tony Wang (Artwork) Photo: Tony Wang Guests: Ken Rubin, Dean Beeby, Matt Malone Background reading: Ottawa experts raise alarm over ‘regressive’ government proposals for access-to-information law – Ottawa CitizenInformation commissioner 'disappointed' by lack of federal ambition on access reform – The Canadian PressFederal transparency law changes could shield government emails, text messages – The NarwhalOff to a bad start: Treasury Board already wants to make access to information worse – The Hill TimesLiberal government's addiction to secrecy – Dean BeebyCanada's Bad Boy of Freedom of Information – Dean Beeby Open By Default – Investigative Journalism FoundationDean Beeby's FOI Tip Sheet  Sponsors:  Head over to canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free!
