Andrew Caddell starts with some of Canada's most underrated places, including a mountain hut demolished four years ago that once straddled the BC Alberta border at over three thousand meters, then moves into what's actually happening behind closed doors in the tariff standoff with the US.

Andrew argues Canada's decision to negotiate privately instead of through the media is a deliberate strategy, not silence, and points to rising US inflation as evidence the tariffs are already backfiring on Americans. He also tracks where Canadian aluminum producers are sending product now that the US market carries more risk.

The conversation wraps with a look at whether the current infighting in Ottawa points to something serious or just the usual noise of opposition politics.
