The Construction Life

What is The Construction Life? The Construction Life is a daily routine of waking up at 5am, working out, showering, preparing lunch, sending off the family, driving to the construction site, organizing and preparing for the day's work, building, having fun on the job, wrapping up at the end of the day, returning home, spending time with the family, and preparing for the next day. It's a lifestyle that involves a constant commitment to hard work and a love for what you do, and it's never about settling for "good enough." The Construction Life is about striving for excellence every day.

    #663 Libertarianism and the Future of Construction: A Global Perspective with Daniel Zalcman

    We welcome Daniel Zalcman to discuss the potential impact of libertarian policies on the construction and real estate industries in Canada. From changes to building codes and labor laws to the influence on interest rates, Daniel breaks down how a libertarian approach could reshape the way we build and manage property. We also explore the recent political shift in Argentina under President Javier Milei, whose libertarian-inspired policies are transforming government and empowering citizens for a better life. Daniel contrasts these reforms with Canada’s current landscape, discussing what Canada could learn from Argentina’s example. Join us as we examine the intersection of politics, economics, and construction, and consider a bold vision for the future. You can find Daniel on X @libertariandz

    #662 Framing Resilience: Mathew Guluzian’s Journey in the Trades as a framer and a Story of Loss

    In this powerful episode, we sit down with Mathew Guluzian of Rise Again Framing Ltd. to hear about his journey into the world of framing and the people who shaped his career. Mathew opens up about the highs and lows of his path in the trades, including a tragic incident that changed his perspective forever. He recalls the day he stood just six feet away from his colleague and a mentor, Mike Groulx, when a fall led to a fatal injury. Mike suffered a fractured skull and passed away one week later—a loss that impacted Mathew deeply and the way he looks at construction today. Through this conversation, Mathew shares how this experience strengthened his commitment to safety, resilience, and honoring the legacy of those who paved the way. Join us as we explore not only the technical aspects of framing but also the emotional and human side of working in the trades.
